Pulsating with industrial energy, melodic metal undertones and a smartly adapted sample of Bad Omens’ Gold-certified single “The Death Of Peace Of Mind”, the track promises to captivate listeners with its haunting dueling vocals from HEALTH’s Jacob Duzsik and Bad Omens’ Noah Sebastian. “The Drain” serves as a testament to the symbiotic creative energy between these two formidable musical entities, drawing upon their individually distinct sonic profiles to create a masterfully-crafted, uniquely heavy single.
In addition to the HEALTH and Swarm collaboration, Bad Omens have unveiled a mesmerizing remix of “The Death Of Peace Of Mind”. Crafted by New York-based producer, composer, and sound designer So Wylie, “The Death Of Peace Of Mind [So Wylie Patch]” offers a fresh perspective on the already beloved track. So Wylie’s hypnotic remix was discovered by Bad Omens on social media, leading to an invitation to contribute to their Concrete Jungle [The Ost] Project.
The musical two-pack follows the success of Poppy collaborative single “V.A.N”, the first release from Bad Omens’ Concrete Jungle [The Ost], which is currently #21 on the Mediabase Active Rock chart and has racked up over 10 million streams to date. All three songs will be available on the new project which has been described as an experimental extension of Bad Omens’ hit LP ‘the Death Of Peace Of Mind’ and the soundtrack to their ‘Concrete Jungle’ comic book universe. The project also features collaborators Bob Vylan, Wargasm, ERRA, and more. See full track listing below.
