We Came As Romans' Black Hole

2021-09-08 by Fernando Alves STAFF | 25 Comments
We Came As Romans dropped a new single, Black Hole, featuring Beartooth’s Caleb Shomo. The official music video can be seen below.


Directed by Jensen Noen

The song comes three years after the passing of co-vocalist Kyle Pavone.

Dave Stephens comments:

" The lyrics to 'Black Hole' are about dealing with the anxiety that you feel going through life. For me, at the time, [it was] the anxiety I was feeling in dealing with loss and the grieving process.

But we wanted to leave the song open-ended enough for our fans to relate to, with anything they were going through. That anxiety is sometimes so crushing and so heavy, and you have to deal with the weight of it, the gravity of the situations you’re in. And sometimes, it just feels like an endless cycle."

Saw this band open with uhhhh The Word Alive for August Burns Red like 5 years ago. Easily the worst non local set I've ever seen

I think it would be more painful knowing I turned my anxiety and pain into something this shitty.

i thought this A) sounded way poppier than Darkbloom/Carry the weight (which i pretty much both thought sucked) and B) just better in general. The vocal editing on Stephen sounded pretty cool, but wasn't a huge fan of Shomo.

its pretty clear without Pavone songwriting is not their strong suite. I think he must have written so much for them.

Seeing them this fall in Houston if anyone else wants to cry about Planting a Seed with me

Whenever this band pops up, I think of this douche I knew in high school who threatened to kick my ass because I didn’t recognize this band as “the future of metal” he was also in a shitty local metalcore band, go figure

Anything with Caleb Shomo in it is a instant no go

Eh i just think the first album is super inspirational. they come from an area known for poverty and drug use and wrote about essentially the golden rule and shit and then Kyle OD's. its tragic


Anything with Caleb Shomo in it is a instant no go [2]

unfortunately. i really liked him when i was 19 and AA! got serious on that one album, and the first Beartooth EP was sick.

After that the sing along choruses really drain me and turn me into a cynic

WCaR and Beartooth is not a mixture of sounds I would expect to be good... and I was right. They're just way different forms of Metalcore. Compared to their other singles this is definitely probably their worst.

I still have high hopes for their next album though. All this does is make me miss Kyle Pavone more. What a talent.
