Pierce the Darkness

Editorial Reviews
About the Artist
Media Line Road is the nom de composition et exécution for W.E. Pierce IV.

From the days of teenage songwriting contests to the hundreds of hours of reel-to-reel, 4-track and 8-track cassette, hard disk and digital tape, his need to write in song is as relentless as the passing of days.

Album Description
Media Line Road's first CD -- Pierce the Darkness -- sprung from the once-upon-a-time towhead of William Edward Pierce IV, -- the force behind the "band" -- slightly unformed, but committed to zeros and ones through a collaboration of lifelong friends (and family).

    Product Description

    The second collection from Media Line Road -- WE Pierce's invented amalgamation of personalities, family and friends -- continues to plumb the depths of life experiences, while proving that pretense founded on good form can overcome the natural tendency to drown when you're over your head. These songs reflect both the hope we long to inhale and the demons we wish to expel...the unfathomly low lows that remain uncharted and the wish-you-were-here unmitigated highs. All real, all felt, all soon gone. Once again, music for the life experienced!

        Product Description

        Media Line Road's first CD -- Pierce the Darkness -- sprung from the once-upon-a-time towhead of William Edward Pierce IV, -- the force behind the "band" -- slightly unformed, but committed to zeros and ones through a collaboration of lifelong friends (and family). The first CD's mission: "To shed some light on the path that leads us home as well as the obstacles we face (or create) along the way". Pierce had the audacity and utter gall to assume this mysterious musical identity with its highfalutin mission, like some poor-man's Bruce Wayne with a guitar instead of a Batmobile. Since the days of teenage songwriting contests and schoolboy crushes, WEP4's outlet has been songwriting. It is a prime imperative and primal urge -- filling a thousand pages and hundreds of hours of tape... detailing some self-inflicted miscues, deadends and backslides as well as the self-awareness found in "everydays" or the pleasure of selfless love, given and received. Media Line Road music is as confusing as the person -- rock, pop, alternative rock, alternative country. Confessions, regression and doubt are as likely to be found as love, joy and good cheer.
