With VINDICATE, Black Veil Brides have officially ushered in a new album era. The seventh studio record, produced by vocalist Andy Biersack and guitarist Jake Pitts themselves, will be released on May 8, 2026. The songs were also mixed by Zakk Cervini, who has previously worked with major acts like Bring Me The Horizon, Evanescence, and Bad Omens.
You can now pre-order the album through us, including a special Glow In The Dark vinyl edition. We’re also revealing the full tracklist, including a feature from Machine Head on the track “Revenger” as well as a collaboration with Biersack’s wife Juliet Simms, aka Lilith Czar, on “Cut.” On top of that, we’re already providing the link for the music video premiere of the title track. Following “Hallelujah” and “Certainty,” it marks the third single from the new record.
