On the heels of the recent announcement of the debut single from the upcoming EP, Black Veil Brides are revealing the full tracklisting and cover art for their upcoming The Mourning. The new four-song EP is scheduled for global release digitally on October 21st via Sumerian Records. The Mourning was produced and mixed by Erik Ron (Godsmack, Bush) and can be pre-saved now at this location.
“We are so excited to share The Mourning with our fans who have supported us for so many years. They have lifted us up and are the reason we are able to have a career making music. A lot of this record touches on how galvanized we felt coming out of a very tumultuous few years as a band. It is a genuine representation of how re-energized we feel. Not only as musicians, but also as friends.
The making of our previous record, The Phantom Tomorrow, with Erik Ron was one of the greatest experiences we’ve had collectively in the studio. The reception to that album was so passionate from the BVB Army that we felt like it was a no brainer to continue writing and recording with Erik and Anthony. This is how we came to put together this EP, that I think is a great illustration of where we are as a band, and where we want to continue to go musically moving forward. It’s pissed off, hopeful, introspective, honest and above all else something we are extremely proud to release,” explains Andy Biersack.
From the opening guitar riff of “Devil” to the driving outro of “Better Angels”, Black Veil Brides showcase the sound that has garnered them an army of loyal supporters around the globe. The debut single “Saviour II” has crashed in to the Top 50 at Active Rock radio in just two weeks since it was released. The song has amassed over 3 million collective streams in less than a month of its release. The video for “Saviour II” can be seen below, and the single is available to listen to here. The video was directed by Vicente Cordero (Cradle Of Filth, Suicide Silence and David Hasselhoff) of Industrialism Films.
