Black Veil Brides have unleashed a Marco Pavone (The Black Dahlia Murder, Shadow of Intent)-directed animated video for their latest single, “Hallelujah.” Produced by Andy Biersack and Jake Pitts, the track features backing vocals from Tampa’s One Voice Ensemble and is their first new music of 2025. The group has a string of shows for 2025, including Warped Tour in Long Beach, CA, and Orlando, FL. Tickets to all live shows are availablehere.
Biersack comments:
“‘Hallelujah’ is an important song for us, not only because it is the first track from the new record, but also as a signifier of what’s to come for the band. On a narrative level, it represents the themes and ideas I am exploring lyrically on the album. I am fascinated by the current state of discourse and how often we seem to prioritize ideological certainty over the heart and soul of humanity. Over the years, we have developed a tremendous connection with our audience, which is often dismissed or misinterpreted by the ‘scene.’ We stand at a unique inflection point culturally and I want to be able to speak openly about how much I believe in being true to yourself over the fear of mass hysteria or in-group recriminations,” explains Biersack. “When my grandfather’s voice spoke to ‘the outcasts’ in the first moments of our first record in 2010, it was a sincere call to arms for all those who feel different. In many ways this record is the natural evolution of that same idea. This is the heaviest and most vitriolic BVB record by far but more importantly I believe it is the most sincere and honest record we have ever made.”
