Six CD set from the British post-punk band containing albums, singles, sessions, alternate versions and 22 previously unreleased recordings. Theatre of Hate burned briefly but brightly during the first couple of years of the 1980s, leaving behind the seminal Westworld album, a handful of highly regarded Peel sessions and independent hit singles and a then-unreleased second album, Aria Of The Devil. Omens brings together those classic recordings alongside main man Kirk Brandon's Stone In The Rain album (recorded by Brandon and fellow Theatre Of Hate man Stan Stammers and issued in the US as a Theatre Of Hate album), and Yonjuuichi, a band-curated collection of more recent sessions and versions, bringing the Theatre Of Hate story into the present day.

Great Britain's music culture is marked by a centuries-old tradition of choral singing, as is shown, for instance, in the institution of college choirs. Church policy had a beneficial effect on the development of sacred music. After the Anglican Church separated from Rome in the 16th c. and the abbeys were secularized, many cathedral choirs were founded which took over the Holy Office from the monastic communities. The fact that sacred choral music in the British Isles is still written largely with an orientation to liturgical purposes must be understood as an effect of this constellation. The close relationship between the way composers and performers work, moreover, explains the tendency of a large portion of this art to be addressed to the general public.
