Ranking Andy Biersack (Black Veil Brides) Style Evolution

From Myspace scene kid to gothic gentleman, Andy Biersack of Black Veil Brides has lived more aesthetic lives than a Sims character with cheat codes, including under his previous moniker Andy Sixx and under his solo work as Andy Black. Across two decades, he’s been a Warped Tour vampire, a bleach-blonde, a cinematic solo artist, an awards-show meme, and even a blood-soaked antihero straight out of a rock opera. Some eras were short-lived (justice for blue streak Andy), others defined entire Hot Topic walls—but every version proved the same thing: Andy fully commits to every aesthetic he touches.

8 Smashing Pumpkins Covers That Still Hit Hard

Few bands have left as deep a scar on the alternative, emo, and pop-punk space as The Smashing Pumpkins have. Through frontman Billy Corgan’s uniquely gruff vocal snarl, melancholic grandeur, and wall-of-distortion, they’ve shaped not only the ‘90s alt-rock space but have embedded their DNA into the next two decades of rock music.
