Michigan's Of Virtue return with "Death Of The Altar," blending crushing heaviness, soaring melodies and emotional modern metal.

Fear of failure lives deep in many of us, however, the ability to overcome is what defines us. Lansing, MI-based Of Virtue, best known for their dynamic evolution and persistent trajectory, have planted their flag in over 35 countries across the globe thanks to a loyal fanbase who resonate with their authenticity, both seen and heard throughout their art. Having shared stages with giants such as Three Days Grace, The Ghost Inside, Imminence and Being As An Ocean, the band continues to prove that they have dedicated their blood, sweat and tears to be heard. It's through their music that melodic, catchy, and ethereal elements coalesce with brooding, heavy guitar riffs from Damon Tate and Michael Valadez to be complemented by the multifaceted vocal stylings of Tyler Ennis and Tate himself. The rhythm section then rages, anchored by Ryan Trinh who adds a relentless pulse on drums. Their hard work and consistency continues to pay off with impressive milestones such as amassing over 50 million catalog streams and more than 4 million music video views in less than 5 years alongside charting on Billboard and earning Top 50 Mediabase US radioplay spots. Their latest record, Omen, released October 2024, has quickly become a fan-favorite - selling out of multiple vinyl variants and thousands of CD copies, emphasizing their growing influence and dedicated audience. Omen is home to a variety of vulnerabilities where Ennis and Tate discuss addiction, self-destruction, relationships with both lovers and families going awry, and beyond. Each song is like looking at a scar, learning the story behind the pain. Once dismissed, Of Virtue's unwavering authenticity and belief in themselves continues to transform them from the underdog to the band you can't miss.
