We Came As Romans + Currents
Celebrate Success of Recent US Tour With The Release Of
“bad luck” Feat. Anthony Notarmaso (After The Burial) Listen HERE | Watch Visualizer HERE
Just weeks after wrapping their triumphant Bad Luck U.S. headline tour, metalcore mainstays We Came As Romans have unveiled a reimagined version of single “bad luck”, this time joined by tourmates Currents and Anthony Notarmaso of After The Burial—two of the standout support acts from the tour’s powerhouse lineup. Stream We Came As Romans & Currents – bad luck feat Anthony Notarmaso HERE and watch the visualizer HERE.
Originally released as the lead single from All Is Beautiful…Because We’re Doomed—We Came As Romans’ most thematically ambitious and emotionally honest record to date—“bad luck” quickly became a cornerstone of the album’s reflection on grief, transformation, and survival. Stream the album now HERE. The reimagined version brings new weight and perspective, layering in Brian Wille’s commanding vocals and Anthony Notarmaso’s unmistakable intensity. What began as a personal reckoning now expands, bridging three of the scene’s most respected forces into a single moment of cathartic heaviness.
“We were fans of We Came As Romans and After The Burial long before having the pleasure of touring with them and making some life-long memories together,” shares Brian Wille of Currents. “It was a great time getting to collaborate on this new version of bad luck and we’re very excited to share it with all of you!”
“I’m very flattered and honored that the WCAR boys wanted to include me on such an awesome track,” adds Anthony Notarmaso of After The Burial. “I still have the song stuck in my head!”
The release follows We Came As Romans’ sold-out U.S. tour run and arrives ahead of their upcoming fall headline tour across Europe and the UK with Brand Of Sacrifice and Heavensgate, as well as appearances at major US festivals Louder Than Life and When We Were Young Fest.

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.
