Los Angeles-based indie Rock musician brookelen has shared a heavy, Witch-Rock anthem ,”omen,” out now, where she “follows prophetic signs towards self-actualization, independence and embracing queerness.” It’s accompanied by a music video featuring Jessicka Addams (Jack Off Jill, Scarling).

The new track hails from her third EP, dark side of the sun due out October 23, 2026, via Soliloquy Records.

The track came about after learning of an ex-boyfriend’s recent engagement.

The artist shares:

‘Omen’ is my witch-rocky anthem for following warning, prophetic signs that all lead back to self-actualization, independence, queerness, and embracing myself.

On the video, featuring Addams, brookelen shares:

Jessicka really resonated with this song, reclaiming power, being a witch, choosing your own (albeit badass) path. We shot the music video at her incredible gothic tower home on the east side of Los Angeles. The music video is filled with omens (the color red, cats, rabbits, creepy dolls, a wedding dress). Ultimately, Jessicka destroys the wedding dress (cuts me out of it) and frees me.

The title of the forthcoming project is “an intentional contradiction.”

It’s described as follows:

“While the sun is the brightest and most life-sustaining force in our solar system, dark side of the sun imagines the unseen weight carried by everything that burns brightly. Rather than referencing astronomy, the title becomes a metaphor for the hidden parts of one’s self—ego, secrecy, trauma, shame, doubt, and love lost.”

Across the EP, brookelen explores “religious trauma, queerness, sexuality, and independence” through recurring imagery of angels and demons, Genesis, mythology, omens, and Icarus.

The songs “embrace contradiction”, and urge us to “consider what happens when faith collides with freedom, when grief becomes transformation, and when vulnerability becomes strength.”
