They Don't Need to Understand: Stories of Hope, Fear, Family, Life, and Never Giving In

Written by Andy Biersack and Ryan J. Downey

Narrated by Andy Biersack

Before he was the charismatic singer of Black Veil Brides and an accomplished solo artist under the Andy Black moniker, he was Andrew Dennis Biersack, an imaginative and creative kid in Cincinnati, Ohio, struggling with anxiety, fear, loneliness, and the impossible task of fitting in. With his trademark charm, clever wit, and insightful analysis, Biersack tells the story of his childhood and adolescence. The discovery of the artistic passions that would shape his life, and his decision to move to Hollywood after his eighteenth birthday to make his dreams come true, even when it meant living in his car to make it all a reality. It's the origin story of one of modern rock's most exciting young superheroes, from building miniature concerts with KISS action figures in his bedroom to making the RIAA gold-certified single "In the End" and connecting with passionate fans worldwide.

Reviews for They Don't Need to Understand

[Keith K Fearns · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I love hearing the thoughts of one of my favorite singers in the world; he opened my mind in ways church doesn’t. And for those who believe in a religion, i do not quite grasp the appeal, but anywho i think this deserves a purchase by anyone who couldn’t believe in themselves and are outcasts. Keep it up, Andy Biersack. Wish we can meet some day. Big fan.
