On the heels of a successful tour alongside Babymetal, Black Veil Brides are back with their first new music since 2024’s chart-topping single “Bleeders.” The band has returned to its roots with the aggressive new track “Hallelujah.”
The Tampa, Florida-based choir One Voice Ensemble lent its talents to the recording.
The song is being released by label partner Spinefarm Records and was produced by vocalist Andy Biersack and guitarist Jake Pitts. “Hallelujah” is now available via all digital service providers.
“‘Hallelujah’ is an important song for us, not only because it is the first track from the new record, but also as a signifier of what’s to come for the band,” Biersack said. “On a narrative level, it represents the themes and ideas I am exploring lyrically on the album. I am fascinated by the current state of discourse and how often we seem to prioritize ideological certainty over the heart and soul of humanity. Over the years, we have developed a tremendous connection with our audience, which is often dismissed or misinterpreted by the ‘scene.’ We stand at a unique inflection point culturally and I want to be able to speak openly about how much I believe in being true to yourself over the fear of mass hysteria or in-group recriminations. When my grandfather’s voice spoke to ‘the outcasts’ in the first moments of our first record in 2010, it was a sincere call to arms for all those who feel different. In many ways this record is the natural evolution of that same idea. This is the heaviest and most vitriolic BVB record by far but more importantly I believe it is the most sincere and honest record we have ever made.”
To coincide with the new single, Black Veil Brides has released an animated video for “Hallelujah,” directed by Marco Pavone (The Black Dahlia Murder, Pink Floyd, Shadow of Intent). The band will continue to release more visual content over the coming months to support the new song.
The band also will tour in support of the new single. The song will make its live performance debut July 26 at Warped Tour in Long Beach, California. Black Veil Brides also will make appearances at Louder Than Life in Louisville, Kentucky (Sept. 20), Rock the Locks Festival in Umatilla, Oregon (Sept. 26) and Aftershock Festival (Oct. 5) before heading to South America for six headline shows. The We Missed Ourselves Tour 2025 also will feature Underoath, Silverstein, Senses Fail and I Set My Friends on Fire.
