LIVE: Pierce The Veil at Clwb Ifor Bach, Cardiff [26/09/12]

After a fair few support tours in the UK, it’s fair to say that Pierce the Veil have earned their right to come over for a headline run. The San Diego post-hardcore quartet have amassed a very loyal following: couple that with an impressive new album in ‘Collide With
