Non-Appearing Title |
| | Pierce the Veil (Music) / int_67784113 |
comment |
Non-Appearing Title: Very common on their first three albums. Misadventures is their first album where the majority of the songs have their titles in the lyrics (and even then, it's only six out of eleven). |

Long-Haired Pretty Boy: All of them have been this at some point, but Vic is the most famous example, as well as the only one to still qualify, as the rest have all taken to shorter styles. |

Shout-Out: "The Sky Under the Sea" drops the phrase "a celebration of an ending" early in the bridge. A Celebration of an Ending was the name of the one album recorded by the Fuentes brothers' previous band, Before Today. |

comment |
Lyrical Dissonance: Invoked with the song "Bulletproof Love", and Vic calls it one of the darkest he's written. It's written in the style of suicide note that would be found by a loved one, the lyrics are about being passionate "with someone to the point where you're hurting yourself." |
