Pierce The Veil Share New Single “Kiss Me Now” – Out Today Via Fearless Records
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,” out today. 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.”
