The video also shows a fight, but doesn't give much explaining. The music video depicts a couple who rebel against the girl's father by sneaking out and running away. A six-minute director's cut of the video was released on iTunes on their second EP, Rebels. A majority of the music video was shot in front of the Fox Theater in Bakersfield, California. There is, of course, plenty of anthemic hard rock ( “In the End,” “Wretched and Divine”), but there are also orchestra-backed spoken-word pieces (the four-part “F.E.A.R” saga), industrial-tinged groove-rockers (“We Don’t Belong,” “New Year’s Day”) and epic piano ballads (“Done for You,” the children’s choir–assisted “Lost It All”).A music video for the song was released on YouTube on October 19, 2011, directed by Patrick Fogarty, who also directed the " Knives and Pens," " Perfect Weapon," " The Legacy," " Coffin", and other Black Veil Brides music videos. Oh, and let’s make a movie, too!’ It’s like, try and copy us now, everybody!”īut for all its accoutrements-the storyline, the film, the evocative album artwork by longtime collaborator Richard Villa-the most impressive and, perhaps, ambitious component of Wretched and Divine is its music. So it was, ‘Let’s make a concept record… Nah, let’s make a rock opera. We’re really proud of what we did on Set the World on Fire, and that record did really well for us. Says Jinxx, “It feels like we’re at a big moment. With all that is coming down the pike, 2013 seems like it might just be the Year of the Brides. In addition, Black Veil Brides recently hit the road in support of the album on the Church of the Wild Ones extravaganza, their first full-scale headlining tour. The tale is also being brought to life in a feature-length film, Legion of the Black, which will be issued on DVD, shown in select theaters and telecast as a pay-per-view event. The record is a massive undertaking: a 19-track concept album with a story set in a futuristic, post-apocalyptic world in which a small band of rebels-the “Wild Ones,” whose ranks include Black Veil Brides-is pitted against an oppressive church/government-type conglomerate in a struggle for spiritual and personal autonomy. The first order of business is their new and third full-length effort, Wretched and Divine: The Story of the Wild Ones. In the meantime, Black Veil Brides have more than enough big things brewing. Whether or not that scenario is ever realized remains to be seen. I guess the only thing bigger would be to have them opening for us!” To have it actually happen is pretty big. So to be on the same stage as them was always a dream of mine. I grew up in Des Moines, and any time they came through town I was there. And that was a crazy feeling.”įor Jinxx, it was a feeling he never thought he’d experience. “We weren’t technically direct support for Metallica, but I’m going to say we opened for them. “Slash was super down-to-earth, and Nikki has always been a big supporter of our band.

In the span of a few weeks, Black Veil Brides traveled to London to pick up a Kerrang! Award for Best Single for “Rebel Love Song,” played on the same stage as Metallica at the Download Festival and, finally, wrapped up with a short European run of shows as the support for Slash and Mötley Crüe. Plus, they’ve been endorsed by idols like Sebastian Bach (who has joined them onstage to sing “Fallen Angels,” as well as has had Jinxx guest on Skid Row tunes at his own shows) and Zakk Wylde (who contributed guitar to the Brides’ cover of Kiss’ “Unholy,” from their 2011 EP, Rebels).īut to give an example of just how well things have been going for the band, Pitts and Jinxx point to June 2012. The Brides’ last album, 2011’s Set the World on Fire, debuted in the Billboard Top 20 and spawned two hit singles in the chest-beating, gang-vocal-laden “Fallen Angels” and the Euro-metalish “Rebel Love Song.” They played to rabid crowds on the Warped Tour and traveled the country alongside Avenged Sevenfold and Asking Alexandria. The band’s mix of pile-driving riffs, soaring pop hooks and dual-harmony lead guitar lines has helped it bridge the chasm between vintage and new metal styles and, in the process, strike a chord both with older and, in particular, young audiences. “And he’s talking about Mötley Crüe, man! They wound up doing pretty well for themselves, you know?”Īs it stands, Black Veil Brides aren’t doing too bad for themselves, either. You’re going through exactly what we went through when we did Shout at the Devil. But you know what? Mötley Crüe got the same hate back in the day. “And he told us, ‘You guys get a lot of love, you get a lot of hate. “Nikki Sixx is a friend of ours,” says Jinxx.
