Black Veil Brides Announce New Album Vindicate

American rock band Black Veil Brides have announced the release of their seventh studio album, Vindicate. It is set to come out on May 8, 2026, via Spinefarm Records and promises to be the band's most ambitious and emotionally charged work to date.
Frontman Andy Biersack describes the album as a reflection on the duality of revenge and satisfaction:
"This record is rooted in feelings of vengeance and fulfillment… They can fuel growth and ambition, but if we give in to them, they can also be destructive."
The album will also include several already released singles, such as Bleedes, Hallelujah, and Certainty. These tracks have already hinted at the direction the band is taking – maintaining their intensity while continuing to evolve and push their sound forward. At its core, Vindicate is about resilience, confronting the past, overcoming doubt, and holding on to the inner spark that defines who we are.
Alongside the album announcement, the band released a music video for the title track Vindicate. The new single perfectly captures the album's dramatic essence, opening with a chilling sound before transitioning into a massive wall of guitars and Biersack's signature intense vocals. The sound is crafted both for deep emotional impact and powerful live performances.
In support of the new album, Black Veil Brides will embark on a North American headline tour kicking off on April 25 and running through the end of May 2026.
All that's left for us is to hope they'll soon announce European tour dates as well – and that Prague will be one of the stops.
