APMAs 2015: Andy Biersack interview from the GIBSON Backstage Artist Lounge

Andy Biersack of Black Veil Brides sits down with AP Senior Editor Ryan J. Downey after BVB's APMAs performance in the Gibson Brands Backstage Lounge.
Andy tells us what he's going to do with his Album Of The Year Award, discusses being from Ohio and explains how he survived the APMAs while being ill.
Plus: Here's an Andy Black exclusive!
"The intention is to finish both [the Black Veil Brides and Andy Black] records concurrently," Biersack says. "I have almost all the material worked on for Andy Black. We're going to get in, start working with John Feldmann and do a Black Veil Record, then I'm going to try to an Andy Black record done."
"I have something like 45 songs for Andy Black right now."
Then, Drama Club crashed the interview to tell us what they got into the night before the APMAs.
Stay tuned to APTV for more exclusive interviews with the shows presenters, performers and winners from the Gibson Lounge!

That was funny

[@sombertastmanian5764]

[@hayleyrohr8723]

How is it humanly possible for him to be that hot?

[@saraadelina7580]

Simple...he's not human...hes an Angel

[@hayleyrohr8723]

Sara Adelina Truth.

[@saraadelina7580]

Maddie Gaskarth true that

[@froggyface5047]

His TOE is hotter than my face

[@fallaway3910]

+Khyragarciamathers Matrhers3 huh?

[@iwilleatyourchildrenuwu9720]

Same xD

[@emmawilkes7784]

Andy: *waves at camera* Me: *waves back even though he can't see*

[@yessihernandez4869]

There has never been an interview which involves Andy that doesn't have be dying of laughter!

[@martinafrendo7796]

Sooo happy that BVB picked John Feldmann as their producer of the next record. He did an excellent job of ''Wretched and Divine'' cant wait to hear more songs like that from BVB :)

[@bananapancakes5133]

Yesss soo true

[@joantriminio662]

Martina Frendo Maybe they'll continue their ''Wretched and Divine Part 2''

[@martinafrendo7796]

Joan Triminio That would be awesome haha :D

[@Owowkiller]

Joan Triminio they technically said that bvb 4 was the wretched and divine "sequel", but i'll be happy to see what they come up with next.

[@nicolerutledge546]

Andy: You've punched the mic like 30 times Drama Club Guy: *attempts to hit it again* Andy: Ah, dammit

[@iluvpackers3]

lol my favorite part of the interview

[@leslie6456]

my ears are so blessed by this voice.

[@whitneygirl704]

He's a lot chattier than I imagined lol XD

[@rhiannonbrown9880]

"All of your Tussins & your Quils." 😹😹 & people wonder why I love this guy.

[@broccoli4781]

he gets sick and still performs he broke like three ribs and still performed

[@courtb9684]

When you move out of Cincinnati to anywhere else in the world and tell people you're from Cincinnati they immediately say I know someone from Cleveland. And you have to explain that they aren't even f***ing close. So very very true. People think Ohio consist of cornfields and Cleveland, Cincy, Columbus and Akron are all right next to each other.

[@altpress]

Courtnei Brown #OhioProblems

[@RockZombieIAm]

Well Kent is mostly corn fields and cows to be fair.

[@Mrsbubblelist]

Courtnei Brown

[@jcdummermuth8510]

Courtnei Brown as someone from ohio i can confirm the stereotype that it really is just cornfields. walmarts and Cleveland, Cincinnati and Columbus are hours apart.

[@hillhue1256]

i live like half an hour from where andy grew up :D

[@leora2792]

Lmao at the guy vaping through his mask. Drama Club has some cool dudes. Funny interview! Anyway, it's cool they're working with John Feldman again! Can't wait to hear what they come up with this time.

[@joantriminio662]

Leora Ojadi W&D Part 2? Maybe?

[@leora2792]

Maybe not as grand and as big of a production as Wretched & Divine, maybe not even a concept record, but definitely in that realm is what Andy has been saying thus far. So maybe a W&D part 2. That'd be cool! But I know it'd be different because they never make the same album twice.

[@joantriminio662]

or maybe another concept album that it's connected with W&D, idk. I just hope new album is good as BVB4

[@dopestghst2918]

Ur everywhere

[@essymuffins]

I honestly never get tired of listening to Andy Biersack interviews. Never a dull moment with him. 😂😁😍 Holy shit he wrote 45 songs for The Shadow Side!?! It must not have been easy narrowing it down to 12-13 songs. Andy is genuinely enjoying the interview despite feeling really sick. You actually cannot even tell looking at him to be honest.

[@ella_jam]

"my throat will swell up and I can flex it. flex throat" dead. this guy is hilarious

[@trindecker367]

I felt like the medication made him loopy t was so adorable he started giggling at his ow comments and then near the end got really intrigued by the stereo on the other's head awe

[@lisbethsevilla3792]

Drama Club's entrance.....just amazing xD

[@ogmaryjane299]

Holy shit he does

[@niaraunderhill8556]

Plot twist: it is So that's why Andy was acting so close to him.... Illuminati confirmed.

[@melzerz]

It is Ashley .. The drama club is probably Ash , Jake , Jinxx or CC

[@najlaalbabtain]
