OmenOf Virtue's most ambitious and heartfelt project to date, represents a journey of artistic growth, experimentation and soul-searching. Including their SINNER EP together with eight additional tracks, this brand new album is all about soaring, heavy anthems to fierce ballads.

The band comment: "Three years in the making and feeling as if it’s the most significant one in our timeline thus far, this album was by far the most difficult to create in many more ways than one and one of the most emotional experience for us. Hope that it helps you through your time of need, the way it did us."

Omen will be available in limited coloured vinyl and CD, together with unique merch options at the Arising Empire online shop, Impericon and band shop.

Playing this year's UK Tech Fest, Summer Breeze, Full Force, Fallen Fortress, 6K Fest and Upheaval, touring with Three Days Grace and Knockout Concept, and accruing a staggering seven million streams on their SINNER EP on Spotify alone, Of Virtue’s growth is nothing short of jaw-dropping.

Progression, or more generally, change, is a constant in music; in order to adapt and survive, you must grow and develop - no band knows this as much as Michigan heavy music act Of Virtue.

Born from the blistering cold, barren fields of Michigan and erupting into an internationally recognised and critically acclaimed alternative powerhouse, Of Virtue’s growth is nothing short of jaw dropping. Whether it’s having shared their music with fans in over 30 countries across the globe, amassing a multitude of Billboard charting positions, gaining Top 50 Mediabase radio play slots, having over 20 million total streams or beyond - Of Virtue are always looking forward to change and progress, to evolve and grow.
 
The band combine an eclectic taste for the melodic, catchy and ethereal with a foundation seeping with  brooding, thick guitars thanks to guitarists Damon Tate Mike Valadez along with a penchant for multifaceted vocal tonalities shared by vocalists Tyler Ennis Damon TateOf Virtue have cemented themselves as a diverse and engaging act, drawing influence from all types and styles of music to create something that is truly their own.
 
With their next record, Omen, on the way they have even further expanded on what makes them who they are, and by doing so they bring a warning: tread lightly and base today on yesterday, or you may not get to tomorrow.

Omen is produced by Carson Slovak and Grant McFarland (August Burns Red, Polaris, Hollow Front), with additional production by Chris Shifflett, and mixed and mastered by Dan Braunstein, (SpiritboxDayseekerVolumes).
