Since the release of the milestone debut album, 2009's To Plant a Seed, diehard fans depend on We Came as Romans to deliver intimate, confessional, and autobiographical anthems, each one challenging, triumphant, and passionate. Darkbloom is a bright light in the darkness with the strength of every WCAR album before it. Singer David Stephens, guitarist Joshua Moore, bassist Andy Glass, guitarist Lou Cotton, and drummer David Puckett usher in an ambitious, courageous new era, while honoring the legacy and memory of their fallen bandmate, co-vocalist and keyboardist Kyle Pavone.
Shaped by their collective loss and grief, the album balances the optimistic vitality of WCAR's most beloved work with stark realism and emotion. Like a flower emerging through concrete, We Came as Romans symbolize the transformative power of perseverance.
