JAKARTA - Andy Biersack has confirmed that Black Veil Brides' new album, The Phantom Tomorrow, is almost complete.

The vocalist provided the latest information about Vale's follow-up (2018) in an Instagram post where he thanked fans for his latest book, They Don't Need to Understand.

"I also want to let you know that Black Veil Brides' upcoming album The Phantom Tomorrow is almost finished, so stay tuned for releases and more coming soon!" wrote Biersack.

Last fall, Biersack spoke with Kerrang! Magazine about what fans can expect from The Phantom Tomorrow.

"Over the years, we've moved away from the heavy-riff-big-chorus dynamic, which has become the blueprint for Black Veil Brides. Our previous full album was very subtle. So the goal (this time) was to find a way to make it grand, with lots of elements. strings and everything, but it still feels like there's an edge built from the riff. "

Regarding the lyric theme raised in The Phantom Tomorrow, Andy said he did not like the term "conceptual album". However, in fact, The Phantom Tomorrow is a conceptual album.

"There are themes and ideas and moments that differ greatly from moment to moment, but there is a purpose at the end. The whole point is writing heavy rock albums and building everything from there, as the resistance of writing a pop album and putting the riff on it," he explained.

The Phantom Tomorrow tells the story of the antihero character The Blackbird and a group of outcasts known as The Phantom Tomorrow.
