BLACK VEIL BRIDES have announced that they will perform the entirety of their seventh studio album, 'Vindicate', during their European tour, following a preview of six of the new tracks. The album, released in May via Spinefarm, has received widespread critical and fan acclaim, with Kerrang! calling it "an exciting listen" and Blabbermouth praising it as "the most well-received record" the band has ever made.
The band confirmed that the live set will include a selection of greatest hits from earlier eras, offering fans a comprehensive journey through their discography. Guitarist Jake Pitts took on the role of producer for 'Vindicate', marking a shift from previous albums where outside producers were involved. Biersack emphasized that the decision to produce the record in-house was a natural evolution of the band's long-standing creative process, having been involved in the band's operations since its inception in 2002.
The tour will feature full album performances, with the European leg set to conclude with a set that includes nearly all tracks from 'Vindicate' and a curated selection of hits from the band's history. The band credits longtime producers Erik Ron, John Feldmann, and Bob Rock for shaping their approach to music production, which has influenced their decision to lead production internally. BLACK VEIL BRIDES, known for their theatrical image and polarizing presence in the 2000s and 2010s, continue to build on their legacy with this new release and tour.
The full European tour itinerary will be released soon. The band includes guitarist Jake Pitts, guitarist Jinxx, bassist Lonny Eagleton, and drummer Christian Coma.
