Pierce The Veil Announce Selfish New Release

.
Pierce The Veil will release their sophomore album, Selfish Machines, via Equal Vision Records on June 22, shortly before kicking off Warped Tour on June 25.

Recorded with producer Mike Green (Paramore, Set Your Goals) at his studio in Los Angeles, the 12-track set features catchy pop hooks paired with metal tinged guitars and aggressive vocals. It's the follow up to 2007's critically acclaimed A FLAIR FOR THE DRAMATIC, which was recorded with Casey Bates (Chiodos, Portugal. The Man).

Fans itching to hear new music sooner than later can log onto the band's Myspace page where "The Boy Who Could Fly" is currently streaming.

"We kept our fans in mind with every song that we wrote because we knew that in a few months we would be sharing these songs with them at shows," says Vic.

Working with Mike Green was an easy decision for the band. As Vic explains, "We chose Mike Green for two reasons: one, his records sound amazing and two, he is a very down to earth and passionate person. We wanted to make sure that the new album will sound great and we also wanted to work with someone that has the same love for what they do as we do. We have 100% confidence that we made a very special album with Mike."

And what about the album title? "We are all in one way or another selfish machines," says Vic. "In no way is this a negative thing, it's human nature. We all have natural tendencies to want, love, and take." He adds, "It's about that 'evil' thing inside of us that is really not evil at all, it's just there and always will be inside all of us."
