Prior to "Texas Is Forever", the album's lead single " The Divine Zero" was released for digital download on June 18, 2015. The band announced their fourth studio album, Misadventures, on March 18, 2016, releasing the album's second single "Texas Is Forever" on the same day. It might not be Pierce the Veil’s best album (although it’s pretty damn close), but it’s easily their most important, exemplifying a staying power that few bands in the scene have managed to attain.Following Pierce the Veil's extensive touring in support of their third studio album, Collide with the Sky (2012), the band wrote and recorded material for a fourth studio album throughout the later half of 2014 with producer Dan Korneff. The quality of Misadventures, on the other hand, is spread evenly throughout the album’s run time. Additionally, it improves upon the biggest gripe I had with Collide with the Sky, the fact that the album was frustratingly front-loaded with its best and heaviest tracks. Misadventures is somewhat of a departure from the darker tone of PTV’s recent output, but that doesn’t necessarily prove to be a strike against the music itself. Neither tracks are poor by any stretch, but they’re a far cry from the quality of “Tangled in the Great Escape” or “I’m Low on Gas and You Need a Jacket.” Closer “Song for Isabelle” boasts some Pierce the Veil’s strongest songwriting, but neither “Floral & Fading” nor “Gold Medal Ribbon” manage to distinguish themselves in such a way. Spanning just 2 minutes and 36 seconds, it features the band at their most volatile and unpredictable.Īs far as the softer numbers are concerned, it’s more of a mixed bag. Additionally, late album highlight “Sambuka” is one of the most interesting songs in the band’s discography. Misadventures does have its share of heavier numbers, however “Today I Saw the Whole World” is easily the best example, combining an addictive groove with hard-hitting vocals and one of the album’s best hooks. Opener “Dive In” serves as an excellent introduction to the band’s new direction, combining furious instrumentation and vocals with a fun, pop punk-esque atmosphere. While there’s nothing as aggressive as “A Match into Water” or “King for a Day,” the record still boasts some of Pierce the Veil’s strongest work to date. However, despite breaking these two cardinal sins, Pierce the Veil’s fourth full-length release sticks the landing with remarkable grace and precision.ĭespite dropping some of the dark atmosphere of Collide with the Sky, the summery vibe present throughout Misadventures is almost as successful. On top of that wait, switching up the signature sound that made the previous release popular in the first place is nothing less than a death wish. Taking a four year recording hiatus between your breakthrough album and its follow-up is quite the risk, to say the least.
