Jesus Piece

Jesus Piece is an American metalcore band from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, formed in 2015. The band signed to Southern Lord Records in 2018 with the release of their debut Only Self. They have since toured with acts such as Code Orange, Knocked Loose, and Ghostemane. Their second studio album, ...So Unknown, was released in 2023.

The band formed in 2015 with Aaron Heard on vocals, along with guitarists David Updike and John DiStefano, bassist Anthony Marinaro and drummer Luis Aponte. They self-released their first demo/EP in the same year, followed by a self-released EP in the summer of 2016. In 2017, they did a split EP with Malice at the Palace which was released through Bridge Nine Records.

In 2018, the band signed to Southern Lord Records and released their full-length debut Only Self on August 24 of that year. Only Self received positive reviews from critics being noted for its punishing and heavy sound.

In November 2019 a show Jesus Piece opened for Ghostemane in Austin, Texas was shut down when the latter threatened to shoot up the venue after his brother's nose got broken by venue security. By that point, Jesus Piece had already finished their set.

In March 2020, it was announced that they would be supporting Code Orange's headlining tour along with Show Me the Body, Year of the Knife, and Machine Girl. This tour was postponed indefinitely due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. In October 2022, it was announced that Jesus Piece would join Show Me The Body for the 36-date North America leg of their World War Tour.
