About OMEN

1. Omen is an American heavy metal band formed in Los Angeles in 1983 by guitarist Kenny Powell after his departure from the band Savage Grace. Known for a melodic yet forceful style of power metal, their sound has often been compared to bands such as King Diamond, Queensrÿche, Savatage, Manowar, and Helloween. Powell’s musical influences include Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, UFO, Ronnie James Dio, Black Sabbath, and Rainbow, which shaped the band’s early releases. The original lineup featured vocalist J.D. Kimball, bassist Jody Henry, and drummer Steve Wittig. They signed with Metal Blade Records in 1984 and released several albums during the 1980s, including "Battle Cry" (1984), "Warning of Danger" (1985), "The Curse" (1986), "Nightmares" (1987), and "Escape to Nowhere" (1988). Despite shifts in the rock and metal scene during the decade, Omen maintained a focus on power metal rather than adopting glam or pop-metal trends. The band has undergone various lineup changes and continues to release new material. 2. Omen is an American rapper from Chicago, born Damon Coleman.
