We Came As Romans continue to progress and evolve at lightspeed, maintaining a place at the forefront of heavy music and culture. 

Never content to follow, they seamlessly alchemize crushing groove-driven catharsis, spacey electronics, and arena-size singalongs into a sound that refuses to sit still, naturally dipping in and out of metal, alternative, hardcore, and rock without breaking a sweat. 

Since emerging in 2005, the Michigan quintet—Joshua Moore [guitar], Dave Stephens [vocals], Lou Cotton [guitar], Andy Glass [bass], and David Puckett [drums]—have pushed the envelope. Along the way, they sold out successive headline tours and shared stages with A Day To Remember, Bring Me The Horizon, I Prevail, The Used, Sleeping With Sirens, Parkway Drive, and more.

In 2018, the group weathered the tragic loss of original clean vocalist Kyle Pavone. However, the musicians kindled a newfound strength in the wake of Kyle’s passing. This energy surged through Darkbloom in 2022. Produced by Drew Fulk [Knocked Loose,  Disturbed], it earned some of the highest praise of their career. KERRANG! rated it “4-out-of-5 stars,” going on to praise the LP as “both a carrier for a knot of emotion, and a tribute to their friend.” 

Not to mention, it yielded two of the most successful tracks of their career. “Black Hole” [with Caleb Shomo of BEARTOOTH] has now eclipsed 102 million-plus Spotify streams, and “Daggers” [with Zero 9:36] has generated north of 32 million Spotify streams.

Moving forward yet again, they ignite another era with the new 2025 single “BAD LUCK.” On the track, an electronic vocal loop gives way to a thick and trudging battering ram riff. A head-nodding rhythm seethes beneath the verses that culminates on a chantable chorus, “I spent all my life wondering why the BAD LUCK always comes so easy…All this time, I’ve realized the worst things in life are free.” 

As always, We Came As Romans level up again with more new music to come in 2025 and beyond.
