From Chaos Comes Catharsis With ANDREW GLASS From WE CAME AS ROMANS

Author: HEAVY Magazine February 1, 2026 Duration: 20:31
Set to bring their monstrous headline show to Australian shores next month, Michigan metalcore titans We Came As Romans return to Australia in support of their new album All is Beautiful.. Because We're Doomed, joined by very special guests Caskets (UK) and Headwreck. They will also be performing at Life’s A Beach, the first-ever curated summer event by Polaris will take place at the Riviera Beach Club in St Kilda, joined by a stacked array of talent.
Stepping into view in 2009 via their debut album To Plant a Seed, We Came As Romans have remained a powerful force of sharp melodies, thick guitars, grooves and unwavering positivity in the face of an uncertain world. Between countless sold out shows, over 250 million streams, seven studio albums and ongoing critical acclaim, We Came As Romans relentlessly forge ahead with a sonic blend that spans metalcore, post-harcore, electronic hues at times and an urgency that captivates in any and every live setting.
Traversing tragedy and tenacity along the way, the band returned with gusto in 2025 with the recent release of their seventh studio album All Is Beautiful…Because We're Doomed; the band's second studio album since the tragic passing of their brother Kyle Pavone, and a collection of tracks that wrestles with the highs and lows of humanity.
In a live setting, We Came As Romans have spent their storied career touring with some of the giants of the scene, spanning Bring Me The Horizon, I Prevail, The Used, Sleeping With Sirens, Parkway Drive and countless others, with WCAR performing down under most recently in 2023 which marked their first Aussie performances since 2015.
HEAVY sat down to chat with frontman Andrew Glass ahead of this months tour to find out more.
