10 Best Post-Hardcore Albums Of The 21st Century

10. Pierce The Veil €“ Collide With The Sky

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icXUkIfZxyg Pierce the Veil are undoubtedly one of the most popular bands in the post-hardcore scene at the moment, and it€™s easy to see why after listening to 2012 album Collide with the Sky. As if they needed it, the band gained even more recognition following the release of €˜King for a Day€™ which won the award for €˜Best Video€™ at the Kerrang Awards, whilst also being nominated for €˜Best Single€™. Sleeping With Sirens frontman Kellin Quinn lends his vocals to the track and it's kind of like adding brown sauce to a bacon sandwich - it makes something that would have already been amazing without it, perfect. 'King For A Day' is far from the only thing to relish on this record though, as it's garnished with tasty tracks such as €˜The First Punch€™, €˜A March Into Water€™ and €˜One Hundred Sleepless Nights€™. The album can seem a little one-dimensional at times, however the better songs on this album ensure that it more than cuts the mustard.
