Omen is an American heavy metal band. The band was formed in Los Angeles, California, in 1983, by lead guitarist Kenny Powell; previously with Savage Grace (band) and signed on with Metal Blade[1] in 1984, with whom they released their debut Battle Cry (which contained 'The Axeman' which appeared on the soundtrack for the Heavy Metal themed 2009 video game Brutal Legend). In 1985 the second album Warning Of Danger followed, which could easily compare with the classic debut and built up Omen's reputation as one of the Forefathers of legendary power metal acts. In 1986 they released "The Curse", their first release with major label distribution by Capital Records in the U.S.A. In Japan the band climbed to Number 14 in the Burrn! Charts. With new singer Coburn Pharr (who would later leave to join Annihilator) the band released Escape To Nowhere in 1988; although considered a departure from the classic Omen sound 'Thorn In Your Flesh' was their first single hit in the United States. In 1996 they signed with new label Massacre Records and toured Europe with Fates Warning for the first time. Sadly in 2003 former singer J.D. Kimball lost his three year battle with cancer and past away in October. Currently Omen has released 10 albums worldwide including a 20th anniversary box set and, as of 2010, are still active touring and recording.
