Suicides Inspired New Black Veil Brides Song

(TeamRock Radio) Black Veil Brides frontman Andy Biersack says one of the standout tracks on new album IV was influenced by a glut of suicides that happened during the recording process.

As BVB confirmed they will play a one-off gig at The Garage in London on Friday, March 13 next year, the singer reveals they were moved by the loss of a friend as well as the suicide of actor and comedian Robin Williams when writing the track Drag Me To The Grave.

Biersack tells Loudwire: "Lyrically it came from a morbid subject. During the making of the record we experienced - people we know and famous people like Robin Williams - a lot of suicide going on. One of the people who worked near us during the studio time in Vancouver unfortunately took her own life and that was incredibly difficult.

"So we started thinking about that and people we know who have dealt with that. People say a silly, stupid thing that suicide is cowardly and our feeling on the song is that it's more about the idea that I don't ever want to feel like I'm in that place. I won't let the demons drag me to the grave, I won't let that happen." Read more here.
