8 years after my “emo phase” and i will never not love Andy

Most of us here are already a bit old but we still like BVB because deep down we are still Emo 🖤🖤🖤

I’ve never been one to comment on youtube almost ever. But I remember listening to this band in 2011 and everyone hating on me for it. I won’t ever say I was personally bullied in school because I wasn’t. But as a touring singer in a rock/metal band I can say one thing: don’t ever let anyone tell you what’s cool or what’s not. I remember 10 years ago when this band was a trend to hate on and it was fucking bullshit. I saw them on a headline tour (it was The Church Of The Wild Ones tour) like a week after they put out Wretched and Divine, and I knew that they were going to be fucking huge. I had so many people tell me I can’t succeed in music, and if this band was not a huge model of musicians that were told how much they suck and how much people didn’t believe in them, then the fact that they’ve stuck around this long is an obvious testament to the fact that all the people who hated on them were gatekeepers and taste makers that hated for the sake of hate. A band like this could never have lasted this long if they didn’t have what it takes to maintain and grow a fanbase. BVB meant a lot to me growing up and as a touring musician, I can only respect how they continued to push forward and get better and better even while people doubted them for so long. Clearly they’ve proven their staying power and they continue to put out great music and I respect them immensely for being something that made outsiders feel like it was possible to do this as a career. Also if you haven’t read Andy’s book, ya should. It adds even more perspective. Great song guys, for real. You’ve been more inspiring to me than you dudes may ever know. Hopefully I’m lucky enough to tour with you one day. Time will tell.

🍷 🧛🏻‍♂️ i have made the universe the way i wanted to.

This band is maturing and constantly evolving thay have worked very hard to get whare thay are and i love the fact that even without Ashley on bass thay have moved on. And continue to strive for perfection musicly. Love this band.!!!!!! Keep working hard guys it's payed off for you. WELL DONE. Big fan of your stuff.

Andy’s voice is one of a kind

I can’t believe here I am 10 years later watching premiers for brand new BVB when in summer 2011 my whole world changed when I discovered the video for fallen angels. So many nights spent watching every video I could find on RU-vid of the band and listening to the set the world on fire album endlessly.. thanks for meaning so much to a small town rocker kid then and now!! 🤘🏻 looking forward to new music

it's nice to see jinx back on the violin again

I'm 58 and I've been a metal head all my life. These guys are amazing, super talented and are carrying on METAL! Cant wait to see them next month here in Vegas.

-------------- LYRICS ---------------- Every day, cry out for the pain Doesn't matter anymore if what we say is true It happened if I say it, your picture as I paint it I have made the universe the way I wanted to Will you burn down when I ignite the torch? In the moonlight playing your final march Catching fire, taking in broken hearts To live is to lie, so light the torch Kneel and pray, what's the world today? And who's the holy one that I can kill to stay alone? And If I take them down, will my lies be found? Deep inside the sun, my words become a gun Will you burn down when I ignite the torch? In thе moonlight playing your final march Catching fire, taking in broken hearts To live is to lie, so light the torch Every day, cry out for the pain Doesn't matter anymore if what we say is true Will you burn down when I ignite the torch? In the moonlight playing your final march Catching fire, taking in broken hearts To live is to lie, so light the torch Hold the Torch Feel the warmth Feed the flames Congregate To live is to lie, so light the torch

This Friday’s music release catalog just gets better and better Spotify release radar about to be legendary

Andy's vocals have evolved so well dude. This track really brings out how much the band as a whole has matured. He sounds fucking fantastic. I'm glad to see them in such a good place.

Most people think that metal sounds very agressive and abrasive. I want to point out that, as a sound engineer, those guys actually have a more *mellow* tone than a lot of rock band - the mix and tones are really emphasized around the low-mids, with the voice on top, and the guitars melting into each-other with the additions of some violin, keys and drum samples for good measure. It sounds like a band should sound, like one giant musician, whereas many metal bands struggle to have a truly cohesive sound because everything is percussive. The cymbals for instance are really supporting the guitars and they're darker than most, not abrasive sounding at all. It's a very powerful sound. Slight autotune on parts but well used and not shocking at all. Very nice :)

11 years and still listening to Black Veil Brides ☠️ BVB Army ☠️ ❤️ from India 🇮🇳

First of all BVB NEVER disappoints!!! Whoever did Andy’s makeup deserves a pat on the back😍❤️ Black Veil Brides NEVER fails us . NEVER 🤍🤍🤍

how is it possible to know every single one of a band’s songs and never dislike any of them in the least?! this band has never once presented me with a song i didn’t like and i don’t know how they manage, how 5 people can have so much talent is beyond my knowledge

This is my favorite song on the album thus far. The music is melodic and enticing while the lyrics carry a weight I think we can all understand after how much we have all grown and adapted during the pandemic. I love watching your music evolve and mature with time and this direction has hit me harder than even your past works. Maybe because it's more relevant than ever, I'm not sure, but I hope if you guys tour again next year, I can thank you all in person for being the inspiration we all need during these unprecedented times.

The best rock/metal band ever

I only recently got into this band after hearing Scarlet Cross but so far I haven’t been disappointed in any song I’ve heard. Every song off is this new album is amazing so far. Can’t wait to hear the whole thing

11 y/o me: This band is amazing 21 y/o me: Fucking amazing

I really enjoy the song. The instrumentals are beautiful. Honestly this band never deserved the hate they got.

It's crazy how good this band gets with every album. Holy fuck.

Thanks to this band I am still alive today. Songs like "goodbye agony" prevented me from slitting my wrists and bleeding myself to death. Since August 14th, 2019 I have not harmed myself physically. I also gathered the strength to seek professional help and medication. Thank you BVB and the whole metal community in general for giving me a reason to live. 💜

I love seeing Jinx play the violin, it gives me the chills every time I listen to it❤️❤️❤️

There's just something about the way Andy sings the word Moonlight. 🥴

Nostalgia is real. I was the only black girl in my class who listened to this genre of music. I was super introverted. Stayed on IMVU all night dressing my avatar and listening to BVB. Real specific memory I just shared but yeah. I can smell that time. Good to see them still rocking out. 🔥

Damn, I think that song really displayed not only your growth over the years as a band in regards to your writing, but also just how talented you guys are, great song, BVB!

This song sits so good with Andy’s voice it’s not loud or crazy it’s like the perfect sound hope to see new music

Andy is my torch ❤❤❤❤❤

I have no regrets about listening to this on repeat for the past three and a half hours..such an awesome song!

It's wonderful that every single has a different sound so far. Well done, guys!!!!

I am really loving how varied in musical styles this album is so far. And the story is amazing, I can't wait to read the comics to see how it is all tied together.

I’m 56 and I love these guys.

Just went and saw BVB in concert again on Sept 19th 2021. Still going strong and giving the best performance like they did when they started out. They out shone In This Moments Performance at the concert by a huge margin which is funny since they weren't the headliner band! Just shows you how much BVB cares for the fans and their music!

I'm a fan since Set the World on Fire era and watching these guys now makes me so happy knowing how far they've come.

I love BVB. Hearing how Andy's vocal range has changed over the years has been an amazing journey. I would absolutely love to hear him both solo and with BVB as he uses different parts of his vocal range with each. Meeting Andy and all the past and present BVB members is a dream/goal of mine. Their music helped open my eyes when I felt everything was hopeless and helped me turn it all around. Thank you so very much Andy and all of BVB :)

I love Andy’s voice. Like black velvet

I have never seen Black veil Brides in a maroon suit before they all look amazing and wonderful to hear Andy's outstanding singing voice.

Thinking back to 2011 when I waited in line to get the CD of Set the World on Fire. Crazy how time flies and yet a part of us clings to things we loved as a child or teen. I’m psyched for this. Buckled in and ready to go.

I remember seeing these guys in like 2010 when their first album came out in some little shithole bar. It’s crazy to see how big they’ve gotten.

Its not a phase ,its a lifestyle 🤘🤘🤘🤘

I haven't listened to BVB for 4 years and wow Andy really is a vampire that never ages - everyone else looks so different and he just chilling, looking exactly the same like almost half a decade ago

I’m so glad I discovered y’all way back in middle school. Y’all have helped me through some tough times, so I’ll forever be grateful to y’all for helping me. This is such a good song and great music video all around, I can’t wait to hear the rest of the album when it gets released!

I'm still trying to pick my jaw up off the floor from that ending. What a phenomenal song and end to the Blackbird arc. Love it!

"I have made the universe the way I wanted to" is such a powerful line!!! I love bvb, the beat always hits n the lyrics are actually meaningful... Such a classic band

this low vocal is just ❤❤

Why you all have to be so perfect? Your music is literally everything that's okay in the world, I LOVE YOU, WE LOVE YOU, BVB FOREVER 🖤🖤🖤 I really love this kind of comeback, i love seeing how you guys are making this amazing music and being happy and together again, my BVB army heart is full of joy 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

When the band tells you to _gently_ tap the like button, but the lead guitarist tells you to _smash_ it: **confused confusing confusion**

I have been listening to you guys for 10 years now and I can say that with every song and every album, I love yall more and more! Proud to be part of the BVB Army!

Can we all just appreciate that we have the legendary voice of Andy

Their Dress Code Is So Dope, Suits Them Very Well.

I love the color of their suit and Andy looks so good with it. His voice did not disappoint me again. I am in love with this song and music video like the others. Good job guys. Don't stop the music. You are the best 👍.

Two years later and my favorite lyrics from this song are, "It happened if I say it." This applies to everyone. Regular people online, and the media always want to write their own narrative even if it is not factual.

It’s official. I’m addicted in this song

"In the end" was the first rock song I ever heard and what got me into rock, I can't wait to see these guys live on Oct 3!! 🤘😆

Andy is one of the few vocalists who is a champion for the baritone register types of us. So few singers within his octave make it.

I can listen to andy’s voice all day and all night 🖤🖤

Andy is so amazing as a vocalist. I have loved every single song by BVB. It was great meeting them a couple of years back too! Me and my BF are seeing them in concert in October!

This is all I've been thinking about all week! SO excited 🖤🖤

No solo la creatividad musical ha surgido nuevamente, las raíces de la banda se han hecho presentes con un toque actual. Música que será la nostalgia de los ayeres y el anhelo del mañana. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

drummer is so expressive.

This band helped me get through some of the hardest times in my life, and even now listening to the new songs my heart is crying happily. I've always loved the music and style of BVB. One day I hope I'll be able to tell them this in person.

🔥🔥🔥

Out of all the bands I have listened to, BVB is the one band I always come back to. Their music is always top tier and is just outstanding. I have been listening since 6th grade, and I am now in college.... I love BVB and I always will!!!

Always a massive influence in my life, and they’re only getting better and better! Forever amazed by what they do!!

Damn I’ve grown with this band for 13 years and it’s crazy to see how far they’ve come. Love the song!!

my emo phase is calling. and i’m picking up the phone

Definetely one of the best bands out there. No one can change my opinion.

The emo is still strong with our band. Maybe someday the emo will rise again & I'll be an old emo grandpa.

you can tell a band is good if they show the drummer for longer than 15 seconds in the music video.

It's interesting seeing how much they've changed over the years! I'm not a fan of their newer stuff but still cool to watch the growth

Every time Jinxx plays the violin in a song it makes my skin crawl.🖤🔥

2 years later and I'm still here, addicted to this song, listening it on repeat. Thank you for this incredible piece of art BVB 🖤🤘

I wouldn’t consider myself to be emo, but I like this band.

THIS LITERALLY MADE MY DAY- HAD SUCH A BAD DAY AT SCHOOL AND THEN THIS CAME OUT AND I GOT SO EXCITED, THANK YOUUUU

Me siento muy feliz de poder escuchar de nuevo ese hermoso violín, esas guitarras tan perfectas, esa batería tan poderosa y ese bajo tan armonioso. Los amo mucho desde México 🇲🇽❤️🇲🇽❤️

You can definitely feel how this band improves throughout the years so fucking awesome!

Який гарний хлопець! І пісня дуже красива, яку він співає .

I listen to your songs since 2009... never disapointed. You have grown so much as a band , I am so pround to be your fan. You shaped my teenage years and now I am a pround adult fan. Rock N Roll will never die as long as you continue to produce such amazing songs.

I haven’t been this excited for an album or seen a concept this amazing since the Wretched and Divine era. Wish we could get a Legion of the Black style movie for this!

First time listening to Black Veil Brides Definitely sticking around to listen to more of their stuff, they seem awesome as hell Update: I've listened to four of their albums and I am in love with their music, holy shit it's amazing Update: Listened to every song they've got on spotify :D

I love you Black Veil Brides

Amazing love it x

Creo q ya la escuché como 20 veces..me fascina q se enfoquen en no abandonar la banda como tanto se decía, ojala y sigan creciendo como Hasta ahora,y todos están hermosos con esos trajes jeje. Hay q reconocer q lo mejor del grupo no es sólo el instrumental o las letras,también q todos se visten parecidos y con un estilo en comun...algo q poco se ve ahora. Por siempre la música realista y acorde al orden decadente del mundo!...♡

Starting 2022 right with some Black Veil Brides 🙏

7 years later and I would still die for Andy 🧎🏻‍♀️🧎🏻‍♀️❤

REPORTENSE LOS LATINOS FANS DE ESTA GRAN BANDA 🇪🇨

Andy killed it with costume & set concepts for this vid series. Insane. Cannot wait to see you in Melbourne next year. Small venue. Saviors of rock. Hurry up 2022.

I remember seeing BVB in 2011 at Warped Tour! They performed during a lightening storm and I lost my shit over seeing them for the first time! 😂 It's been amazing getting to see them mature and grow into new versions of themselves. ❤

Definitely been helping me through a tough spot lately..appreciate all the music guys!

Otro soberano temazo ❤️💥

"Andy's voice takes me back to the 60's"~ me who was born in the 2000's

Я уже и не помню как давно начал слушать эту группу, но до сих пор считаю её одной из лучших

Gave these guys a lot of grief back in the big hair and shiny black leggings days, but this song slaps and their look is so much more striking.

“I’ll die when BVB makes a bad song”*Becomes immortal*

Holy noodles that was amazing, definitely something my neighbors are going to have to be hearing for a while

I'm obsessed... good tune tune guys💋

Jinx+violin 😍😍
