About Bad Omens

Bad Omens formed in 2015 and built their following the hard way—through relentless touring and releasing music independently before signing to Sumerian Records. The LA metalcore band, fronted by Noah Sebastian, made noise with their self-titled debut and really solidified things with Finding God Before God Finds You, an album that hit harder both sonically and lyrically. They've become known for songs that balance crushing riffs with genuinely catchy melodies, which is harder to pull off than it sounds. The band doesn't shy away from heavier material but they're not afraid of hooks either. They've consistently toured their ass off, building one of metalcore's more devoted fanbases in the process. Their live energy is reflective of the crowd they attract—intense but not toxic.

Bad Omens shows get loud and physical without feeling reckless. The pit stays relatively controlled but absolutely moving. Noah Sebastian commands the stage naturally, not trying too hard. The crowd sings along to everything. People are there for the band, not their phones.

Known for THE WORST IN ME, STOP THE TIME, ARTIFICIAL SUICIDE, RECKLESS, LIKE A MIRACLE

Bad Omens + Worcester

Bad Omens last touched down at The Palladium in December 2022, bringing their particular brand of heavy alternative rock to Worcester. They went deep into their catalog that night, pulling "Nowhere to Go" and "Mercy" alongside harder cuts like "CONCRETE JUNGLE" and "THE DEATH OF PEACE OF MIND." The setlist felt deliberate—not just hitting the obvious marks but letting "Glass Houses" and "Like a Villain" breathe in the middle of the set. They closed out with "What Do You Want From Me?," which felt like the right note to end on. It was the kind of show where they seemed to be testing what resonates with a room like Worcester.

Worcester road trip to see Bad Omens?

Stay in the Elm Hill neighborhood — it's got actual character with tree-lined streets and the best local dining concentration. Book a table at Elm Tavern for elevated comfort food, then spend an afternoon at the Worcester Art Museum, which has a surprisingly strong collection that rewards a couple hours. If you want something quieter before the show, The Hanover Theatre is worth checking even if you're not catching a play — the building itself is an ornate 1904 gem. The walk from Elm Hill to the venue area is doable and keeps you off the highway entirely.
