Virginia based Metalcore expanders, Bad Omens, made their mark heavily with their vicious 2019 sophomore effort, 'Finding God Before God Finds Me.'
Their glitched-out, chaotic follow up, 'The Death Of Peace Of Mind' provides savage heft yet interspersed with intriguing production techniques to complete a cyberpunk groovecore cluster that feels simultaneously alien and familiar.
With the uniformity the genre can often find itself stuck in, with label Sumerian even being one of the biggest funders of the offenders, Bad Omens make their boldest statement yet and prove why they standout so clearly in a sea of imitators.
