Unleashng V.a.n
Written by; Lauren Carlsen
Bad Omens teamed up with Moriah Rose Pereira also known artist name POPPY.
Around 2:30 PM EST, SiriusXM Octane premiered V.A.N earlier on Jan 24, 2024. Later in the afternoon, a cinematic music video was released from Sumerian Records. Watch Here. The video takes additional visual inspiration from the video game Portal, the film Ex Machina, and Stranger Things. It was directed by Garrett Nicholson & Poppy. The single is infused with Bad Omens heavy metal instrumentals and with Poppy's glitchy electronic tunes and vocals. This song is the first tease of their upcoming "Concrete Forever OST". V.A.N tells a tale of an artificial intelligence entity bent on destroying humanity, with a storyline inspired by sci-fi and Bad Omen's Concrete Jungle comic book universe.
Noah Sebastian explains "That's a song that started just with the hook 'Violence against nature', and then after saving the project with the acronym and seeing it, we realized it could be fun to think of 'VAN' as a name. Thus the rabbit hole of ideas began that led us to decide to write lyrics from the perspective of an artificial intelligence gone rogue."
In a few days, Bad Omens will be on the road with Poppy kicking off their European leg of the "Concrete Forever" tour.
