OH MY GOD I CANT BELIEVE THEY FINALLY ANNOUNCED IT!

The Divine Zero was so good.. and i dint hear anything since!

the cover seems a bit simplistic/superficial though.. lemme google more about this album!

2016 continues its slayage

Texas is Forever is out now:

Also preorders are up: https://t.co/xBGMdUAawt

And they did a Q&A on Twitter last night.

It describes our lives and the process of making this album perfectly

There's definitely some risky business in there as always. We try to keep things interesting

We can't wait to play #TexasIsForever because it's the fastest song we've ever written

Another new song/single out now:

I love it, it's the most poppy song so far but also the one that has the most classic PTV sound. Very catchy and already very popular with the fanbase, could be the next Caraphernelia/Bulletproof Love.

They are doing like a treasure hunt thing on their website http://piercetheveil.net where they reveal something new every day. Cool idea.

Pierce The Veil on ATRL.

Interesting and hopefully the band will produce another jam like King for a Day.

I know, nobody really cares but I just have to rep them

So the OP is done, I'll add more stuff as it becomes available (reviews etc).

Blunt Magazine has reviewed the album and given 5/5

Quote:

“It’s been four years, this better be bloody good” seems to be the resounding consensus whenever somebody brings up the forthcoming Pierce The Veil album Misadventures. That portion of the San Diego post-hardcore band’s fanbase will be pleased to know that this album is everything that they wanted it to be, if not more.

Anyone listening to Pierce The Veil’s output should follow the same principle that the international mining industry does: the deeper you dig, the more value you’ll find. One run-through of this LP simply won’t do – there’s too much to discover. What seems poppy on the surface could be a Kleenex-requiring lament on the Paris attacks (“Circles”). What sounds like a runaway song could actually be a scathing critique of online society (“Floral & Fading”). There’s more than one track that you’d have to skip on public transport to avoid crying next to the awkward businessman sitting next to you, including “Gold Medal Ribbon”, a eulogy dedicated to frontman Vic Fuentes’ ex-girlfriend that’s 50% Tears For Fears vibes and one half emotional pain that you did not sign up for.

Though Misadventures will rip your heart open, PTV don’t use typically sappy acoustics to express their sentiments. “Song For Isabelle”, by far one of the best songs they’ve ever penned, is a narrative and conflicted album closer that doesn’t keep it predictable at all (all the way down to its Ahmad reference). That’s not to say that LP4 isn’t aggressive. It still has its fair share of breakdowns, which oddly remain non-gimmicky, as well as both the fastest and shortest songs the Californian crew have ever written. On “Phantom Power & Ludicrous Speed”, above punching electric guitars and a bolting tempo, there’s even a murder: “as my body lays/before you now/do you feel my skin?/it’s cold.”

At the end of the day, the instrumentals of Misadventures are like a choir that Fuentes both teaches and conducts; his voice navigates through its complexity and becomes part of the chaos rather than being separate from it, even using lyricism to push it further, to “play the beat faster”. Its theatrics will recall shades of Pierce The Veil’s 2007 debut, A Flair For The Dramatic, while its story-charm and harmonies are nostalgic for their sophomore offering Selfish Machines (2010). But among everything – comparisons and uncleans and romances – is a sincerity that justifies why this album took so goddamn long to make and forces you to play it again. Just don’t say we didn’t warn you to bring tissues.

Wow. Didn't know other people listened to PTV on here

So excited for this!

M A R N ✮

Their new stuff sounds amazing

this is exciting

Fentydelspears

I'm listening to this album, so ****ing good I mean I love those post-hardcore riffs

Nathan's Nicely

lemme buy a copy over the weekend

Fentydelspears

Guys the album is really good, I love it love it love it

Nathan's Nicely

finally hearing the album

the utter slay by Dive In

edit: the halfway mark in The Divine Zero

omg Floral & Fading is EXCELLENT

Gold Medal Ribbon!!!!!!!!!!

Nathan's Nicely

after hearing the entire album:
it's literally flawless, I didn't hear any song that didn't fit or seemed ~relatively worse than the others
the instrumentals on Bedless and Gold Medal Ribbon are amazing. the synths are such a little part of each song yet so perfect
so I would probably choose those two and The Divine Zero + Floral & Fading as my favorites
when Vic yells TONY before the solo in F&F

I don't mean to compare but the outro of Bedless gives me AM at their peak vibes, which even adds more to the song for me
the halfway mark and beyond in The Divine Zero >>>>>

I don't want to say something in the midst of hype but it truly feels like their strongest album

mxoonlight

That OP

Let me listen to this later this weekend.

Ronaldista

Thank you guys for keeping this thread alive

I'm on holiday rn and wifi here is so slow I can't download from iTunes I'll have to wait until I'm home again

But it sounds like it's an amazing album that was well worth the wait! I'm so glad they did not disappoint after all that pressure

Ronaldista

theREALslimSHADY

A Top 5 debut on the Billboard 200

KINGS!!!

I finally completed my exams today. gonna listen to the album tonight

im so ready to be destroyed.

Ronaldista

Have you guys seen the new website? It looks amazing, they completely revamped it for the album release and now it's fully interactive with lyrics, pictures and stuff for each song on the album. So cool! And they changed the general layout too, it looks much more professional and polished now.

Excited for the final numbers, I'm so glad they're finally getting a top 5 debut

Gonna update the OP with South America and Australia tour dates now. I might also post a Metacritic thread for it, just for fun
