	Tamworth Bands : Omen
		OMEN – Firing on five cylinders for the first time – produced one of the best gigs seen in Tamworth this year and confirmed their leading status among the town’s young bands.
		Omen are just too good to be allowed to die without ever having a smell of success, and the individuals within the band must ensure that they don’t fold.
		Omen 2 are the follow-up to the once popular men and they have promised a totally new sound.

		Omens are signs encountered fortuitously that are believed to foretell the future.
		The augur and haruspex of ancient Rome were professional readers of omens.
		The haruspex sought omens in the entrails of sacrificed animals.

		Omen is best-known for melodic yet aggressive power metal/fantasy metal along the lines of King Diamond, Queensrÿche, Savatage, Manowar, and Helloween; Omen is forceful and hard-driving, but they're always been musical and melodic.
		Omen has had its share of lineup changes over the years; in addition to Powell, the band's early members included lead singer J.D. Kimball, bassist Jody Henry, and drummer Steve Wittig.
		In 1984, Omen signed with the L.A.-based Metal Blade and recorded their debut album, Battle Cry, which was followed by Warning of Danger in 1985, The Curse in 1986, Nightmares in 1987, and Escape to Nowhere in 1988.

		I know most of the underground bands are acting the same way, most of them put lots of effort, and time, and money to support their musical activity but only a few manage to fulfill their dreams as we have done, and are still doing now.
		One of the first interviews ever made to the band, the guys were asked what their dream was - they said it was about playing with Manilla Road, but at the time it was just a distant dream lost in the mist of an (apparently) unreachable future.
		Doomsword is probably the biggest epic metal band nowadays in Italy, and even if they don't sell a huge amount of copies, they now have good support from their current label and a good distribution.

	BALLBUSTERHARD Online Metal Journal Review
		This band's biography boasts that Seventh Omen is "redefining metal for the new millennium" and, while that statement goes a bit too far given what I am hearing on Polarized, it still stands as a solid album.
		The band's songwriting is fluid and engaging, constantly diving and surging with energy and precision while retaining focus, which makes Seventh Omen's songwriting quite palatable.
		I like the manner in which this band merges power metal with a commercialized strain of thrash, and the band's songwriting approach is also commendable and suggests a great deal of potential for future success, although there are still a few wrinkles in the band's formula.

	The Metal Crypt - Reviews
		Omen were one of those essential 80's bands that I somehow missed.
		It was put out after the band had more or less fallen apart, no doubt with the intention of sucking more money out of the band's fans.
		Omen just have that magic, that true-metal feel that so few bands since 1988 have managed to keep.

	HEAVY METAL FORCES (English) -- Omen interview (part I)
		The band’s first three records, released back in the early and mid-80s, are certified metal classics, and Warning of Danger is truly one of my favorite records.
		Kenny took some time from his busy recording schedule to talk to me about the band’s history, their return to metal glory on their forthcoming record, and the bright future that is ahead for these metal warriors.
		Actually, one of the bands that was on this label—and forgive me, but I don’t remember what the name of the label is right now, it’s been a year and a half—but one of the bands had done a couple of Omen songs on their first CD.

		All of Seventh Omen's successes so far are the result of years of their own hard work and self promotion.
		When the buzz and demand for Seventh Omen were at their peak, their main U.S. distributor filed for bankruptcy and failed to get the CDs into stores.
		With a new release of their strongest material yet, and with metal once again on the upswing, Seventh Omen was armed and ready to conquer the world.

	Rough Edge: Omen CD Reviews
		That's not a good way to be introduced to a band -- it's preferable that one is introduced to a band on a more positive note.
		Omen play old-school metal in the vein of Iron Maiden, Mercyful Fate, and Savatage with a fantasy edge.
		After a little research I learned that Omen released a series of albums in the mid-'80s and then went silent for the better part of 15 years.

	BNR Metal Pages -- Omen (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Omen was one of the more successful Metal Blade artists of the eighties, employing a classic 80's metal sound vaguely along the lines of Priest/Maiden.
		It wasn't until 1997 that founder Kenny Powell resurrected the Omen name with a new lineup, and his own son Greg taking over on vocals.
		The band took a break, then came back together with a new vocalist (son Greg having moved on to his own band, Stomping Ground).

		A little known fact is that Omen wrote a complete albums worth of new material with Coburn in L.A. that sounded very much like a follow up to "The Curse" that was to be entitled "Era of Crisis".
		It will definitely be a return to the style of the early 80's Omen records and should not disappoint all those, including Kenny, who have been waiting 15 years for a follow up to "The Curse".
		Omen also agreed to a new management agreement with the California Based Jeff Keller Management and completed their new album Entitled "Eternal Black Dawn".

	There is not much information on this band on the internet
		The band Omen was formed in the early eighties by guitarist Kenny Powell, and they released four full length albums, an EP and a greatest hits cd on Metal Blade records during the years 1984-1989, and broke up.
		The band recently reformed and and released another cd, Reopening the Gates, which is a fitting title, with their reformation in mind.
		In general, this is NOT a band for the Poison/Europe, pop metal fanatics, this is one of the TRUE metal bands that Manowar is always hyping.

		Throughout the ‘80s, glam metal, pop-metal and hair bands were huge on the L.A./Hollywood rock scene--the Sunset Strip was inundated with bands that hoped to be the next Quiet Riot, Poison or L.A. Guns.
		But in 1996, Powell opted to revive Omen and assembled a new lineup that included Andy Haas on bass, Rick Murray on drums and Greg Powell on lead vocals and rhythm guitar.
		After singing on Omen's 1997 comeback album Recovering the Gates, Greg Powell decided to leave his father's band--he was interested in pursuing a more contemporary alternative metal direction--and put together his own band Stomping Ground.

	Omen
		Guitarist Kenny Powell formed Omen in Los Angeles,California in the spring of 1983 after a short stint and one record with the L.A. metal band Savage Grace.
		The band wanted someone that could handle the older material with the respect it deserved, write their own lyrics and melodies, and possessed a passion for classic Power Metal.
		After only a few rehearsals Kevin had mastered a full set of early Omen songs and finished lyrics to all of the new material the band had been working on!After playing a quick show to make sure everyone was compatible on stage, the band started working on a new release entitled "Eternal Black Dawn".

	HEAVY METAL FORCES (English) -- Omen interview (part III)
		I’d been renting a house together with him, and he was a singer in some band in L.A. [After things fell apart with J.D.], there were about 20 dates left on the tour, but we had about a week before the next show.
		There are two Omen records there that probably shouldn’t have been called Omen, but I don’t think that’s going to be the case with this one.
		For more information on Omen, band merchandise, upcoming gigs, and progress on the new album, visit the official Omen web site or send Kenny some e-mail.

	REVIEWS M
		I can’t imagine the band in the studio, be it inside the recording (Vrs Studios) or the mastering studios (Finnvox Studios), cried out loud in joy.
		On “Stages Of Decay”, the band appear as a five piece, and I don’t know if this line-up is due to remain stable in the future, the band having been plagued by multiple changes in the past.
		Older readers may remember how much the band were not satisfied with the final mix released by Nuclear Blast, so here is the chance to hear alternate versions of five tracks from the “Imperial Doom” album, on which the guitars are more prominent.

	The unofficial underground heavy metal bands' page
		After seing the band on stage during the world domination tour, it's evidence that these guys have the attitude of metal bands of the 80's.
		This belgian band is very good and proposes with this first album a quality standard which will surely become a cult reference in the fl metal scene.
		This band evolves close to the leader of this scene and it's sure that they have the possibilities to assert themselves in the scene, because of their qualities : good level, good sense of composition (a good mix of melodies and aggressivity) and a professional attitude.

		Soon after the latest demo, Keisala decided to leave the band but the replacement wasn't too far away: Tomppa Saarenketo, who was recording/engineering/producing the latest demo with P.O. stood up and took his place in the bass.
		The band has made nearly 100 gigs which is a lot to an unsigned band, also one four-gig-tour has been made in Austria.
		Now the band is heading to studio again to record a single song plus a B-side.

		Belgian band, their sound based on highly melodic yet simple structures, with some general influence from Genesis; some tracks use a piano based style reminiscent of Supertramp, others have an etherialism akin to Pulsar's Halloween.
		Magma is a concept band whose albums explain the origins and development of the new civilization on Kobaïa, all in the new language of that planet.
		This band plays music for recreation, not profit, which means 1.) They can feel free to play anything they darn well want to, and 2.) They not only don't mind you making CD's of their stuff for your personal use, they encourage it.

	Omen--Reopening the Gates (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Omen was around for awhile in the '80s, and the return is a successful one.
		Fans of power metal ala Corrosion of Conformity, Iron Maiden, and Slayer (though slower) will really enjoy this--the band smacks of other titans as well, but manages to forge their own identity through nine strong cuts; a specific sound match is hard to pinpoint.
		This band would do well to try and hook up with one of the heavy hitters on the road (Priest, Slayer, Maiden, Pantera), as they would get good exposure and please the fans at the same time.

		The bands first demo tape was recorded at Tico-Tico; Kemi`s finest studio, during march `93 in 2 days and within 20 hours.
		The label manager Ludo"Evil" never kept the band up to the date of the selling figures and always kept the finacial discussions such as as the paying of royalties in secrecy (only the 1st part of the royalties were paid as cd`s) This eventually hurt the co-operation with Mythos and Evil Omen recs / Osmose.
		Today the band mixes influences from the old thrash metal to the already intense deathmetal outlest, that hasn`t changed since the beginning...

		It is the only song on any Omen record that was written outside of the band.
		It sold very well and I actually made some money in that band, which is something that has never happened in Omen.
		KP: Kevin had been in several bands that opened for Step Child around town and to be honest, I did not even know that he could sing Metal.
