Jake and Andy from Black Veil Brides talk about the new album “

Heart of Fire, the mind blowing single from LA’s modern day metal icons Black Veil Brides has had plenty of airplay since it was released.

BVB have worked tirelessly over the recent years, clocking up countless world tours, supported the likes of A7X, Slash, Motley Crue and Asking Alexandria, festivals such as Warped Tour, Download and Rock AM Ring, album sales, fans (over 4 MILLION on Facebook) and awards (multiple Kerrang Magazine and Revolver Golden God Awards).

Andy and Jake were kind enough to take time out of their hectic schedule recently to record an incredible interview and track by track for us ahead of their upcoming album release (27th October) and start of the UK tour.

They go through their huge sound, big songs, what it was like working with absolute legend that is Bob Rock who has worked with bands such as Metallica, Bon Jovi, Motley Crue, The Cult and Aerosmith.

These bright young men give you an insight into their mind and band.
