It’s hard to keep track of the members of Black Veil Brides, because they all look and dress alike, but I think I know which was Ashley Purdy is… he’s the dude with black hair, right?

Well whichever one he was, he played bass and he’s not in the band anymore, according to this tweet:

“Black Veil Brides and Ashley Purdy have mutually agreed to part ways. We have enjoyed a wonderful run together and both parties wish one another continued success moving forward.”

Things get interesting is a phrase no one has ever used when discussing Black Veil Brides when you consider that last year, Purdy caused a whole lot of confusion as to whether the band was or was not breaking up. He later blamed this “miss information” (Jesus Christ) on the media allegedly taking something he said out of context. That something was him saying “[T]hat is where you are going to see Black Veil Brides for the last time ever in your entire lives.” I still have not figured out what the proper context would be wherein someone would not interpret that to mean the band was breaking up. Speaking to a room full of the terminally ill? That’s the best I can come up with.

My general point is, something has clearly been off between Purdy and the band for sometime now. So surely all of their fans must have seen this comi-

Nevvvvvvermind.

Assuming they can somehow find another guy who plays bass and has black hair, Black Veil Brides are due to hit the road again with In This Moment in March. Get dates and tickets here.
