Bad Omens

Formed in 2015 in Richmond, Virginia, Bad Omens have carved out a compelling niche in modern metalcore and alternative metal. Their sound blends crushing riffs with atmospheric electronics and emotive clean vocals, often juxtaposed with visceral screams. The band first gained widespread attention with their self-titled debut in 2016, but it was ‘Finding God Before God Finds Me’ (2019) that marked a more adventurous creative leap, encompassing both aggression and melodic vulnerability. As far as content goes, they explore inner conflict, existential doubt and the psychological battles that shape our lives. Bad Omens bring intensity and a theatrical edge to the stage and fans of emotionally charged metal with a melodic backbone will find plenty to connect with. Whether you’re drawn to weighty themes or eager to lose yourself in powerful hooks and soaring choruses, Bad Omens is right up your alley. (#GMM26)
