That said, I am a big fan of A7X. I know they get bashed a lot too and a few of them look pretty gay, but they do a lot of unique things that you just don't hear other bands do, they're one of the very VERY few newer bands that I like.

Also Black Veil Brides are a below mediocre metalcore band for angsty teenage straightened hair types.
Also they suck. And are also gay.

Anyway, listened to 'In the End', my god that song is boring. It sounds the same as a lot of their other work. So generic. A7x's one saving grace is that at least they try and do different things occasionally by moving across different genres.

I'm all for experimenting and evolving but this band is just an absolutely mindless, heartless, talentless load of crap dressed up in a shiny package so kids who don't know any better will buy it.

Black Veil Brides is One Direction with guitars and makeup. There is no difference.

I'm gonna go listen to some Slayer and try to forget that "bands" like this exist.

A7X have always been in good physical shape.

Because, you know, I care about what bands "look" like when im listening to them on my ipod.

They're like KISS. I respect them for what they're doing, but I cannot get into what they're doing fully. They have a few songs that I like, but its clearly mostly for that hot topic crowd.

I'll keep an eye on these guys because i think musically, they're talented and am interested to see where they go in a couple years.

Everyone else here whos being negative is reading into them a little too much. They're young and clearly having fun. This isn't the new Rush concept album...

And yes, lets all hear what the pseudo-internet celebrity-blogging, long haired, 22 year old metal head has to say about these guys.

Since his opinion is just as valid as taking this band "really" seriously.

It's pretty generic, and the vocals are awful. That said, it's mildly melodically interesting in some parts, and they're not totally untalented - the lead guitarist has some decent chops, though there's a ton of shred overkill here. That said, I can see why so many people hate them: the vocals; the image as a gimmick; the huge credit they're given by radio-metal fans; and the pompous *****-ness that the guitarists have given off in the interviews I've read with them.
Also, that lyric sample from "I Am Bulletproof" is horrendous. The lyrics look like they were written by a sixth-grader. "The devil fills our minds with sadness," really?

This is certainly NOT glam rock.
BVB are forever banging on about how they're "Kiss and Motley Crue" influenced, but at the end of the day they're just playing some watered down Bullet For My Valentine type metalcore.
The only Kiss influence they have is the makeup and they can't even get that right!

This album really blew my mind. It's the best record they've put out so far. I really don't know how they're going to top this.
The thing that really irritates me is the hate they get. They do not deserve it. BVB are not a horrible band, "heartless" and "untalented" like someone said on here. Look at Jinxx, he's a guitarist, pianist, and violinist. He grew up on classical music. And I'm pretty sure Jake is better than most of you here.
I really feel like I'm the only huge BVB on UG. That user rating of 4.3 is not right. You either hate BVB anyways and gave it a low rating, or based it off of In The End, which isn't even a horrible song. You want horrible, go listen to Blood On The Dance Floor.
Anyways, I love Black Veil Brides and I always will.~

But, I feel like their music keeps jumping around; they really have no clear idea what they want to achieve. It's like they got a band together and are still experimenting with what type of music they want to create...that or their producers are trying to figure out what sells more. I hate to seem so cynical, but I'm not sure this is a band I could trust, genre differences aside.

I can imagine though that if a 15 yr old kid heard this and they're just starting to get into guitar-oriented music they would really like it the same way I enjoyed A7X's Tim Burton-esque song themes at that age.

Metalcore has to have hardcore influence. BVB doesn't have any 'core influence whatsoever and thus cannot, but definition be metalcore.

Personally, I think that they validate this viewpoint by having a solid, very talented group of individuals. These guys at times are almost sort of mainstream, yet have elements like screams, crazy fast riffs, and wild drums that slap you in the face and tell you that this isn't just a one track mainstream band.

A negative comment is equally as worthy as a positive comment as long as it is written maturely.

Other people don't need to get over the fact that you like a band. It's for you to get over the fact that other people do not like that band.

Nah man, it sounds like bad teenage poetry. You explained the song but that still doesn't change the fact that he's singing about tough times: "Through it all I have given my heart for a moment of glory" - yep sounds like he's talking about some sort of adversity. And what kicks in right after? The big sweeping chorus that I posted above.
I'm not saying that it's a horrific song, I'm just saying it's boring. Talking about overcoming some obstacle, big sing-along chorus, repeat, throw in a solo, repeat process until song ends.

The only way they're categorized with Motley Crue and KISS is just the crazy outfits. Their whole look reminds me too much of the Shout of the Devil album.

They lack originality, and are pretty mediocre, but maybe they'll turn it around. Props the guitarist though, he did pretty good.

1. The vocals. They're just so...bland, undistinguished, whiney, and it seems like they're forced to fit with the music.

2. Way too much shred wankery. Some bands can pull this off with great songwriting skills, but if I want to hear the melody of the chorus, I don't want to hear meaningless leads over it that are simply dead weight to the song. The guitarists have some chops, but they need to learn how to use them in the right places at the right times. You can be one shitty guitarist, but if you have good songwriting skills, people will at least want to listen. Also, the tone extremely bland, as well. It sounds like they've just put the gain at 8 o'clock on their 6505's and said "Hey, this sounds pretty heavy!" It sounds boring.

3. This all has been done before. SO many times. The fluttery, unnecessary leads throughout every song. The whole concept-album thing, especially with how they've set it up. Just everything about this album. Don't get me wrong; I love concept albums if they're done right. But this wasn't.

By the way, I'm surprised nobody has asked these chicks for their numbers yet...

I swear, if we blindfolded everyone and played a random song by any band that is hated for their image, that people would maybe like their music until they saw said image.

I honestly don't think this is the best band in the world, but they are actually really great for a more mainstream hard rock type band.

One last thought that really gets me, People keep saying that they are sick of songs that are all like fml! Then these guys go and make a concept record like this one which appeals to the opposite of the sad stuff, that is supposed to be tailored to the live show and get the audience singing the anthemy stuff and that's no good either.

But I must say that calling them 'gay' is offensive to gay people, as gay people dont look or sound this silly.

My Chemical Romance used to be veiwed in a similar way. With the whole "MCRMY" and whatnot. But what sets them apart is that they still keep their band focused on MUSIC rather than just adding a bunch of "whoa oh"s to bland poetry and calling it an anthem for their fan base.

Their guitarist is amazing but this band in general is very bland and they are some of the biggest sellouts I've ever seen.

I used to like them back before they got signed to the new record label and COMPLETELY changed their sound. That is one of the big reasons that the girl drummer left. She was sick of how the direction the band was going.

I'm pretty indifferent to these guys. I listened to a few tracks on YouTube, and, well, I didn't hate them. But, I also don't remember anything that stood out about them either. And I just listened to them a few minutes ago.

The singer has a decent voice for the genre they play, the drummer is pretty solid, and the lead guitarist can play (but doesn't seem to have much of a creative spark in his soloing).

They're definitely trying too hard with their appearance. I'd be able to respect them more if they were just a rock band that wore jeans and T-shirts.

Their songs are pretty bland and forgettable, but there's nothing about them that offends my sensibilities or anything. I do think it's pretty funny that there are tons of kids that think these guys are metal (no, they aren't).

And just as many kids that think these guys are totally unique and original. Umm.....no. I can think of half a dozen bands from the 80's that sounded very similar. (W.A.S.P. anyone? How about some Britney Fox? Trixter maybe?)

I won't be buying any of their albums, or going to any concerts. But I can't say I think they're terrible.

Generic? Yeah.
Bland? Kinda.
Outright awful? Wouldn't go that far.
