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 naturally without breaking a sweat. Since emerging in 2005, the Michigan quintet have pushed the envelope. Following To Plant A Seed [2009] and Understanding What We’ve Grown To Be [2011], Tracing Back Roots cracked the Top 10 of the Billboard 200 and catapulted to #1 on the Independent Albums Chart and Top Hard Rock Albums Chart in 2013.
Two years later, We Came As Romans bowed at #11 on the Billboard 200, while Alternative Press hailed Cold Like War as “a milestone for WCAR.” 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. Produced by Drew Fulk [Knocked Loose, Lil Wayne, Disturbed], 2022’s Darkbloom earned some of the highest praise of their career. Beyond applause from Loudwire, Consequence, and more, 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. ”It yielded two of the most successful tracks of their career. “BlackHole” [with Caleb Shomo of BEARTOOTH] eclipsed 102 million-plus Spotify streams, and “Daggers” [with Zero 9:36] generated north of 32 million Spotify streams. Moving forward yet again, the band ignite another era with the 2025 single “BAD LUCK.”
