The third new single from 2025 marks the return of the platinum-certified alternative metal band Bad Omens, as theprp reports. The music video for their song “Dying To Love” appears below, and it follows the release of “Specter” and “Impose.” As with previous snippets, Nico and Noah Sebastian, the vocalist for Bad Omens, co-directed this most recent visual accompaniment. The band’s fourth album is still under wraps, but next month they will embark on a headline tour of Europe and the UK with Bilmuri and The Ghost Inside.

Bad Omens exceed boundaries on their self-titled full-length debut for Sumerian Records. It’s something of a mission statement for the Los Angeles-based quintet—Noah Sebastian [vocals], Nicholas Ryan [guitar], Joakim “Jolly” Karlsson [guitar], Vincent Riquier [bass], and Nick Folio [drums].
It’s a goal that Noah’s possessed since first writing for what would become Bad Omens in 2013. The Richmond, VA native logged time in a prominent local band, but he wanted to focus on his own artistic vision. He wrote and recorded a handful of solo songs without mentioning a word to anybody. When it came time to recruit other players, he linked up with old friend Nicholas. He added another buddy Vincent who introduced him to “Jolly”—all the way in Sweden. Nick joined last after submitting a cover online.
It also spoke to Sumerian Records who offered Bad Omens a deal in 2015 based off the strength of the demos and songwriting. The guys spent months rehearsing in Nick’s basement before hitting the studio with Will Putney [Upon A Burning Body, The Amity Affliction, Body Count] to record the album.
