This Friday, May 9, platinum-selling band Pierce The Veil will release a deluxe version of their hugely successful and chart-topping 2023 album The Jaws of Life. Released in 2023 the LP debuted at #14 on the Billboard Top 200, #2 on the Alternative Chart, and claimed the #1 spot on the Top Hard Rock Albums Chart. The LP’s lead single Emergency Contact became the band’s first #1 single at Alternative Radio. Combined with other standout tracks from The Jaws of Life – Pass The Nirvana, Even When I’m Not with You and 12 Fractures (feat. Chloe Moriondo) – the record’s singles have amassed over 140 million streams to date.
The Jaws of Life (Deluxe) will contain two new tracks – the band’s take on Radiohead‘s Karma Police which was released in 2024 and a new single, Kiss Me Now, which is out now. The track reveals a more vulnerable side of Pierce The Veil while retaining the high-energy intensity that has won over their fans. The band’s Vic Fuentes says, “Lyrically, Kiss Me Now is a love song to my wife, Danielle, exploring the concept of fear of time passing by too fast. It was inspired by a quote I find true as I move through life. ‘There will never be a perfect time for anything.’ If you spend your life waiting for the perfect moment to do something, it may never come. I tend to overthink things, and this song reminds me to give in more often.”
On May 13, Pierce The Veil will hit the road for their highly anticipated I Can’t Hear You Tour, with the North American leg now set to continue through October 2025. Now covering 60 dates across North America, Europe, and Latin America, this tour marks a bold new milestone for the band, following their standout 2024 as main support for Blink-182 on the One More Time tour in North America. Numerous shows have already sold out including their May 20 stop at NYC’s Madison Square Garden, Morrison, CO’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre on June 19, and a 3-night stand at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles in July. The tour will also make stops at OVO Arena Wembley in London, England; and Espaço Unimed in São Paulo, Brazil. The tour will feature an exciting lineup of support acts across its various legs. In North America, fans can look forward to Sleeping With Sirens as direct support, with Beach Weather and Daisy Grenade joining on select dates for the first run and the new leg features HEALTH as direct support, with Ecca Vandal and Like Roses on all dates. In Europe, the stage will heat up with support from Cavetown, Hot Mulligan, and Crawlers.
