Art relies on a delicate balance between dark and light. In order to reach heaven, you have to go through hell. In order to enjoy bliss, you have to endure devastation. In order to rise, you have to fall. In order to be a leader, you have to be a little wild.

Black Veil Brides confidently take the lead with their third full-length album, Wretched and Divine [LAVA Records/Republic Records]. Boasting a compelling concept, the record sees the Los Angeles quintet—Andy Biersack [Vocals], Ashley Purdy [Bass], Jinxx [Guitar], Jake Pitts [Guitar], and Christian Coma [Drums]—deliver a collection of songs that's as immersive as it is infectious. Hallmarks of their sound like gritty riffs, orchestral flourishes, elegant soloing, and anthemic vocals remain intact. At the same time, everything expands gracefully into the fabric of an intricate post-apocalyptic drama about The Wild Ones penned by Biersack and artistic collaborator Richard Villa III. Ultimately, Wretched and Divine opens the gateway to a new world altogether.

Think you can handle it?

Coming off the road in support of 2011's Set the World on Fire, Black Veil Brides made a collective and conscious decision to break ground when they entered the studio. They couldn't just make "another album"; they needed to make a statement this time around. After a few sessions, they found the perfect man to help them realize this vision in producer John Feldmann [The Used, Neon Trees, Panic! At The Disco].

"I was going through a bit of darkness artistically," admits Biersack. "We couldn't just take a logical step from Set the World on Fire, and I knew that. We had to make a giant leap. I wanted to find a fresh way of expressing what our band was both lyrically and creatively. I met John, and we simply clicked. We brought him on board immediately. He was able to take our ideas and mold them into something really incredible. It was cool to be with him every day in that creative mindset. We've never had a producer there for the entire process. He pushed us to reach the next level."

In between recording, the band hit the road for a string of dates, and Biersack began envisioning a much larger concept story for the album, writing it on buses and planes. As a result, the songs weave together to tell the tale of a dystopian future where a unified church government is devouring society through taking away science and creativity. This despotic regime drugs the youth into becoming drones, but refugees named The Wild Ones—the band's fictional alter ego—inspires the kids to be themselves and revolt.
