Bad Omens were initially set to tour across the United Kingdom and Europe this summer, but things have changed as they announced the cancelation of their series of concerts.
Taking to their official X account, frontman Noah Sebastian addressed fans about the sad news, saying he has been experiencing "extreme burnout."
"While all the touring and work that we've put into this album cycle the last several years has been so gratifying and rewarding, it has also pushed me to the limits of my mental bandwidth," he began.

He noted that putting his mind and body in conflict has been detrimental to his health.
Sebastian added that after "heavy consideration," Bad Omens decided to cancel their upcoming performances.
"This decision is in the best interest of my health and wellbeing, and of the long term sustainability of Bad Omens," he added.
He further noted that the group must protect and restore the energies needed once it enters a new musical era.
Although Sebastian acknowledged that his decision would disappoint their supporters, he asked them to respect the band's decision to prioritize their health first.
Fans took to the comment section to express their support for the frontman, and most of the replies understood his situation.
"We all truly understand, care, and love you. Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance and order and rhythm and harmony," one wrote.
"I understand this very well! Your music Bad Omens helped me from myself so many times, so take care of you, your health comes first before anything in this world," another one wrote.
Noah Sebastian has been low-key with his social media presence since last year when he deleted all of his profiles from the internet.
In a previous interview with Metal Hammer, he explained that he got tired of seeing his own face and reading strangers' opinions about him daily, as they were unhealthy.
He also saw someone make a shrine from his baby photos, which they had found on his distant relative's Facebook account.
Bad Omens is set to release a new album called Concrete Jungle on May 31, featuring their latest song, "The Drain," in collaboration with Swarm and Health. Their last release was 2022's The Death of Peace of Mind.
