BLACK VEIL BRIDES have released the official music video for another new song, “Torch”. The track is taken from the band’s upcoming album, “The Phantom Tomorrow”, which will be released on October 29 via Sumerian Records.
The “Torch” clip is the final installment in the initial “Blackbird”/9 story arc. “Torch” also marks the second time BLACK VEIL BRIDES frontman Andy Biersack got behind the camera to direct a video for the band alongside longtime visual collaborator Patrick Fogarty.
Biersack states: “We wanted to create something that felt like a fitting ending to the four-video story arc that started with ‘Scarlet Cross’, and while this is the end of the original ‘Blackbird’ video chronology, it certainly is not the end of ‘The Phantom Tomorrow’ narrative that plays out on the record and in our upcoming comic book series. It’s been one of the greatest joys of my professional life getting to dream up these concepts. For us as a band to work with such amazing individuals and to see this story realized on the screen is an absolute honor.”
The cover artwork for “The Phantom Tomorrow” was created by Eliran Kantor, known for his work with TESTAMENT, HATEBREED, HAVOK and Andy Black, to name a few. “The Phantom Tomorrow” was produced by Erik Ron (GODSMACK, DANCE GAVIN DANCE, BUSH) and co-produced by guitarist Jake Pitts.
