She didn't listen to the songs fully she listened to a little bit of each also she didn't see the music videos she just listened to the songs.
happy international Black Veil Brides day!!
(prepare for a sappy post lol)
This is my 6th international BVB day (June 17th) as a member of the BVB Army and I am still so glad that 14-year-old me stumbled across the Wake Up music video back in January 2018. This band literally changed my life. They were the first band I fell in love with, my gateway into rock/metal, and the catalyst for me getting into fanfiction and later original creative writing.
More importantly, BVB are home to me. I was a teenager struggling with my mental health and my gender identity, and here they were spreading the message that it’s okay to be the outcast, that we can stand strong despite what we’ve been through, and that message of community and hope was more support than anything I had at the time. I used to write the lyrics to Saviour on my arms as a coping mechanism. They’re a huge inspiration in my life and they bring so much genuine happiness into my life as well. They’ve been with me in the darkest times when no one else was, but they’ve also been with me through the everyday, through exams and moving to university and figuring out who I am.
I wouldn’t be who I am today if not for Black Veil Brides, and I am so proud to continue being a fan of this band <3
I’m rambling but someone in the comments for the Bleeders MV said about them/their friend thinking ‘bleeders’ sounded like a slur and it makes me so (perhaps irrationally) angry because it’s missing the whole point of the song.
“Aren’t you lucky you’re a bleeder? Everyone of us are bleeders” is lyrically equivalent to “we all bleed the same shade” (‘Cadence of My Heart’ - The Relentless) as in we are all human beings. Andy has said himself and it’s so evident in the lyrics, Bleeders is a song about that feeling of revenge but also realising the “grey area” (his words) of being angry at those who’ve wronged you whilst also realising that they and you are human and you have probably wronged other people in your life because that’s what makes us human. And it’s not excusing what people do to other people because, frankly, some people are just genuinely awful and horrid. And, because of that, those feelings of revenge can be justified.
But we have to move on. We can’t be consumed by it for the rest of our lives. We can accept that whatever/whoever was shitty, and do whatever we need to in order to get closure, but then we keep on living: “Have your vengeance, find your salvation, tear down.” The second part of that statement is really important - “find your salvation” — as in stop wasting the precious limited energy we have on the negative, and find the positive. Find what keeps you alive, what makes you glad to be alive, and hold onto that instead.
I know I’m probably reading WAY too much into a YouTube comment, but writing this is kinda exacting my point. I’m gonna ramble here (because this is where I talk about my interests) and then move on and not think about it again, and continue listening to BVB and focus on their music and the fact I’m gonna see them play live in October, because they have been my “salvation” for the last 6 and a half years and will continue to play that role for probably a long time if not the rest of my life :)
what do you mean I’ve been into this band for nearly A THIRD OF MY LIFE-
I hadn’t realised until I watched Sweeney Todd just how much heavier the BVB version of My Friends is?? Like, at first it seems very much just Andy covering it but then the drums and guitar kick in and the way he screams “at last, my right arm is complete again” and the almost breakdown after?? *chefs kiss*

guys you should think about donating blood if you can bc most places will give you a gift card and you get free food and drinks after and since they take 1/8 of your blood you can get really drunk really fast with a lot less alcohol (or do the same with sugar if you want) and also as gerard way once said “give them blood, blood, gallons of the stuff, give them all that they can drink and it will never be enough”
and the entire bleeders tour with black veil brides was focused on getting people to donate blood to the american Red Cross because of the lack of donors and the high need for blood transfusions in hospitals around the United States
with hurricane helene and milton, lots of people in the southeast United States were injured and many died. during both storms, hospitals and blood banks were urging people to donate blood if they were in unaffected areas. most people are hesitant to donate blood because they fear the pain, or they simply don’t want to go out of their way for it, or any other reasons. finger pricks that are typically done at the doctor to measure hemoglobin levels are also done before you can donate blood to make sure you have the proper levels for it, and the needle used to donate blood actually hurts less. i know this is a lot of rambling, but as someone who has a heart for helping people, it’s something i really care about. i still can’t donate because i have anemia, but i have a feeling that this community will be more willing to donate a lot of things, not just blood. i know a lot of people that are fans of my chemical romance, black veil brides, and other similar bands that are more than willing to donate to charities, they volunteer their time whenever they can, they make efforts to protect the environment, and they’re very generous people in whatever ways they can be. this probably isn’t the *best* place to post this, but I know this is where the most people will see it.
so, if you can, please think about donating blood at your local blood bank! (you also usually get a gift card of some sort and they give you plenty of sugar before they send you on your way)
