We Came As Romans have released “red smoke ○,” a reimagined version of the track from their 2025 album ALL IS BEAUTIFUL… BECAUSE WE’RE DOOMED, this time featuring HEAVENSGATE. The new single arrives with an official visualiser and lands as part of the band’s forthcoming release ALL IS BEAUTIFUL… BECAUSE WE’RE DOOMED: CIRCULARITY.
CIRCULARITY will present four brand new songs alongside six rewritten versions of tracks from All Is Beautiful… Because We’re Doomed, each reworked in partnership with artists the band has shared stages with across years of touring, including Dayseeker, Bury Tomorrow, Currents, After The Burial, Headwreck, HEAVENSGATE and Ladrones.
“ALL IS BEAUTIFUL… BECAUSE WE’RE DOOMED: CIRCULARITY is the culmination of this cycle for WCAR. We are happy to have been able to sit in a place of deep collaboration with so many artists we have toured with over the years and build strong friendships with. The new songs represent a new era for the band as we continue to write and carve out what is next.”

We Came As Romans continue to progress and evolve at lightspeed, maintaining a place at the forefront of heavy music and culture. Never content to follow, they alchemize crushing groove-driven catharsis, spacey electronics and arena-size singalongs into a sound that refuses to sit still, moving between metal, alternative, metalcore and rock. The Michigan-born five-piece first broke through with Tracing Back Roots (2013), which cracked the Billboard 200 Top 10 and hit number one on both the Independent Albums and Top Hard Rock Albums charts, before their self-titled 2015 album debuted at number 11 on the Billboard 200.
Following the tragic loss of original vocalist Kyle Pavone in 2018, the band has continued to honor his legacy with their 2022 album Darkbloom, their highest-praised record to date, which featured career-defining tracks like “Black Hole” (ft. Caleb Shomo) and “Daggers” (ft. Zero 9:36). With the release of their 2025 album ALL IS BEAUTIFUL… BECAUSE WE’RE DOOMED, the band entered their most ambitious chapter yet, now further punctuated by CIRCULARITY.
