Michigan metalcore titans We Came As Romans have announced their highly anticipated new album, ALL IS BEAUTIFUL…BECAUSE WE’RE DOOMED, set for release Friday, August 22nd via Sharptone Records. The announcement arrives alongside the release of the album’s third single, ‘culture wound‘, and its accompanying official music video. Following the defiant anthems ‘bad luck‘ and ‘no rest for the dreamer‘, this latest track dives deep into the battle between our best and worst impulses. Stream ‘culture wound‘ HERE, watch the official video HERE and pre-order ALL IS BEAUTIFUL…BECAUSE WE’RE DOOMED HERE. ‘culture wound‘ confronts the fundamental question at the heart of human existence: are we inherently good or inherently bad? The track wrestles with the forces—both internal and external—that shape who we become, delivered through the band’s signature blend of crushing riffs and soaring melodies. “culture wound is about taking a look inside and deciding which side of yourself is going to control your life. This song was written to question our human nature – is it inherently good or inherently selfish? Are we here to try and make something better for everyone or just survive for ourselves? All of the different “sides of ourselves” that we’ve discovered, struggled with, or left behind is really what this album is about, and our journey through all of those experiences is written in every song.” |

ABOUT WE CAME AS ROMANS 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—effortlessly moving between metal, alternative, metalcore, and rock. The Michigan-born five-piece—Dave Stephens, Joshua Moore, Lou Cotton, Andy Glass, and David Puckett—first broke through with Tracing Back Roots (2013), which cracked the Billboard 200 Top 10 and hit #1 on both the Independent Albums and Top Hard Rock Albums charts. Their self-titled 2015 album followed, debuting at #11 on the Billboard 200, cementing their status as modern metalcore royalty. Following the tragic loss of original vocalist Kyle Pavone in 2018, the band has continued to honor his legacy with their 2022 album, Darkbloom, their highest-praised record to date. Kerrang! awarded it 4 out of 5 stars, calling it “a carrier for a knot of emotion, and a tribute to their friend.” It featured career-defining tracks like “Black Hole” (ft. Caleb Shomo), now over 102 million Spotify streams, and “Daggers” (ft. Zero 9:36), which surpassed 32 million streams. Media outlets including Loudwire and Consequence praised the album for its emotional range, sonic heft, and unapologetic vulnerability. Now, with ALL IS BEAUTIFUL…BECAUSE WE’RE DOOMED, the band enters their most ambitious chapter yet—scarred, sharpened, and more fearless than ever. We Came As Romans Are
