5SOS\' Ashton Irwin is Recording with Black Veil Brides\' Andy Biersack

The pair team up for Biersack\'s debut solo album

Good news for fans of good tunes. Black Veil Brides megababe Andy Biersack is hard at work recording his debut solo album under the moniker Andy Black. It sounds like it\'s going well, but today we\'ve learned it\'s going to be amazing.

5 Seconds of Summer\'s Ashton Irwin was spotted in the studio with Biersack and his bud John Feldmann of Goldfinger fame. 

Starting week 5 of #AndyBLACK with some kick ass drums! Thanks to the kind & talented @ashtonirwin for being so rad & thanks to @johnfeldy for working diligently to make this record so exciting! I am incredibly proud and stoked to share this with all of you! More updates coming! Stay tuned! Photo by: @alliesaurousrex"

Does this mean there\'s going to be some pop-punk flair to Biersack\'s solo LP? Only time will tell! In the meantime, peep pics of his band taken at Warped Tour 2015.

Baby Irwin! Can you believe this shot of Ashton was taken in 2013, the first time 5 Seconds of Summer hit the arena circuit with buds One Direction?

Fast forward a year and that\'s the same guy! Really!

themselves (with the very real exception of bassist Calum Hood, and he was only there to support his big sis) they did make an appearance on

Last winter 5SOS embarked on a few of the Jingle Ball radio shows, headlining almost all of them! With the very real exception of New York City, of course. That honor went to our Queen Taylor Swift...but look at how killer Irwin looks closing out the Boston gig!

5SOS performed at last year\'s American Music Award ceremony after taking home the New Artist of the Year award. No wonder Ashton looks especially into it!

The California town is a second home to these boys, so it\'s no surprise Irwin is totally conformable on stage at the Staple Center. 

From someone who worships at the alter of the Foo Fighters, Nirvana, but specifically Dave Grohl, we think Ash is doing a good job living up to his legacy.

5 Seconds of Summer had the absolute honor of closing out the 2014 Kids Choices Awards (we were there, we know). Their slimetastic set was a highlight but we have to wonder, is it hard to hit those drums when you\'re covered in goo?

The annual iHeartRadio Music Festival is slowly becoming the stuff of legends, and it appears our boy A.I. recognized that immediately last year, on stage, in Vegas.

2014 was a busy year for the guys, right? Here Irwin is seen performing at the MTV VMAs. Imagine, going from watching the thing one year to performing on it the next.

Sometimes you just gotta go back to the place that made ya.

show. Kids camped out for days. It looks like someone loves the camera...

Every once in a while it\'s good to take a break from playing huge arenas and opt for something more intimate...as long as you bring that same intensity. At the P.C. Richard & Son Theater in New York City, Ash did just that.

If any country holds the title of most loyal 5SOS fandom, it\'s probably England. The guys do their best when in London, and a gig at Shepherds Bush Empire proves it.

While embarking on their first ever headlining arena world tour, 5 Seconds of Summer swung by Norwich\'s famed BBC Radio 1 Big Weekend Festival. Here\'s Ashton at his most recent, a strong, more matured man with a killer drum face. Here\'s to the future, boys!

It’s not every day (or ever) we see Taylor Swift flawlessly do a split, but how about a double-split alongside Todrick Hall? After leaving Taylor speechless with his rendition of the popstar’s top tracks, Taylor invited the YouTube superstar backstage for some fun times and shenanigans. He even got a free voicemail out of it.
