Black Veil Brides
As a 30-something metal fan, I have to believe that I don’t fall into the dEMOgraphic that Black Veil Brides appeal to. That said they do seem to have a something. They really pull some elements from the past and make them new again.
What am I talking about? Lead singer is Andy Sixx, that name can’t be by accident, but he has no other connection to the other musician that shares that same last name moniker. Black Veil Brides has a modern sound, but channel a very WASP-y shout at the devil thing as well. They spend time with the instruments, but like many scrEMO bands, spend too much time on the “feel good” singing for my taste. That said, Black Veil Brides have a tight sound, and are worth having on the radar.
