Black Veil Brides Tease 'Vindicate' With New Single Revenger Featuring Machine Head's Robb Flynn

Black Veil Brides have released a new single, Revenger.
Pairing heavy drums and guitars with melodic, anthemic hooks, the track features Machine Head frontman Robb Flynn's trademark growling vocals on the second verse. Commenting on the song's inspiration, BVB vocalist Andy Biersack said:
"I have always been interested in the sort of ethical dilemma that we have culturally of cheering for justice. I thought it would be an interesting exercise to write lyrics from the perspective of someone who is trying to seek out the ultimate form of justice. Because I was writing from someone else’s voice, this felt like the kind of song that would be best served by having someone else’s voice on the song. So, we brought in Robb Flynn of Machine Head. The reason he came to mind first was of course his voice, tonality and style I thought was perfect for this.
"He is also someone who was one of the first real defenders of Black Veil Brides. In the early days when we were getting absolutely shit on by every other metal band, Robb Flynn and Machine Head stood up for us and said positive things about us and has maintained that for years and years. I think it’s one of my favourite songs on the record."
It serves as the latest preview of the California rockers' seventh album, 'Vindicate', due out on May 8, following the title track, Certainty, Hallelujah and Bleeders.
Black Veil Brides kicked off a spring North American tour over the weekend and play intimate gigs in Brighton, Liverpool and London in June, following their appearance at Download festival in Leicestershire. They'll also appear at several other festivals across the US and Europe this summer. Tickets are on sale now.
