Selfish Machines is the second album by American rock band Pierce the Veil, released by Equal Vision Records on June 22, 2010. Produced by Vic Fuentes and Mike Green, it was recorded in late 2009 and early 2010. Fuentes wrote most of the songs, and co-wrote three songs with former A Day to Remember guitarist Tom Denney.
Vocalist Jeremy McKinnon, also of A Day to Remember, was featured on the track "Caraphernelia", which had a music video released on September 28, 2010. "Bulletproof Love" was released as the follow-up music video on July 7, 2011. The album released to a mostly favorable critical reception, with reviewers praising the lyricism, instrumentation and experimental approach to its sound, while the use of Auto-Tune on some of the tracks was less favorably received and Fuentes' vocals were met with a divisive response from some listeners. Nonetheless, it garnered decent success and appeared on several US Billboard charts, including its Top Heatseekers and the top 200. It was reissued, with remixed production, on September 24, 2013.
