Embark on a hauntingly powerful journey with "Darkbloom," the eagerly awaited sixth studio album by the acclaimed American metalcore band, We Came as Romans. Released in 2022, this album marked a significant milestone, breaking a five-year hiatus and signalling their triumphant return.

While "Darkbloom" represents a new chapter for the band, it also holds profound emotional weight. This album stands as their first release without the presence of clean vocalist/keyboardist Kyle Pavone, whose tragic passing in August 2018 left an indelible void. Out of respect for his memory, We Came as Romans made the heartfelt decision not to seek a replacement. Instead, they crafted a sonic tapestry by utilizing synths composed by producer Drew Fulk and recorded by Pavone prior to his untimely death. Unclean vocalist Dave Stephens, who had occasionally shared clean vocal duties with Pavone, now assumes full responsibility for clean vocals, paying homage to their fallen bandmate.

With "Darkbloom," We Came as Romans explores new musical dimensions while staying true to their metalcore roots. Prepare to be captivated by the haunting melodies, gripping lyrics, and an overwhelming sense of catharsis. This album is a testament to their resilience, camaraderie, and unwavering dedication to their craft.
