In the past few years, Equal Vision Records has signed some of the punk underground’s most groundbreaking acts including Circa Survive, Fear Before The March Of Flames and Chiodos. The latest edition to this elite group of artists is San Diego, California’s Pierce The Veil, a progressive post-punk quartet whose debut A Flair For The Dramatic incorporates elements of fractured hardcore, prog-rock and metalcore into a unique amalgam of heavy music that’s bound to turn heads and blow minds.

When Mike and Vic Feuntes’ previous band disbanded last year, the two brothers decided that instead of continuing with the melodic punk sound that had pioneered in their previous band, they wanted to attempt a new style of music that was a better representation of their eclectic influences. In order to do this, they enlisted bassist Jaime Preciadeo and guitarist Tony Perry and began writing the eleven distinctive and disparate tracks that would eventually encompass their full-length debut, A Flair For The Dramatic.
