Bad Omens have returned with the haunting new single ‘Specter’.

With a music video directed by Noah Sebastian and Nico, it arrives after days of online teasing and is the band’s first new music since 2024’s ‘Concrete Jungle (The OST)’.

Earlier this week, the band teased their return via a series of mysterious videos on social media, a young child in a ghost costume in discussion with a therapist played by actor Ryan Hurst who has previously appeared in ‘The Walking Dead’ and ‘Sons Of Anarchy’.
2024’s ‘Concrete Jungle (The OST)’ collection featured collaborations with the likes of Wargasm, Health and ERRA. Their track with Poppy, ‘V.A.N.’, was given the Rock Sound Award for Song Of The Year, with frontman Noah Sebastian saying “Pretty early on, I did the reference vocal for some of the parts myself and I wanted to make a song where it felt like the voice, the vocalist of the song, was AI, or inhuman to some degree. It was kind of influenced by that game ‘Portal’ and the voice GLaDOS. I had that hook, violence against nature, I had that as a lyric and it turned into a melody. It’s a lot to break down, but basically, when I had the delivery and the cadence in my head, it seemed like Poppy was just the obvious choice.“
This followed on from the huge success of their 2022 LP ‘The Death Of Peace Of Mind’ which has since been certified Gold in the US and included the singles ‘Just Pretend’ and ‘Nowhere To Go’.
Bad Omens currently have only two tour dates in the calendar for 2025 at Louder Than Life festival in Kentucky on September 20 and California’s Aftershock event on October 04.
