ONE STEP CLOSER + ARM'S LENGTH AT PAPILLON

More info

One Step Closer has always believed that hardcore is limitless. On All You Embrace, the band puts that theory into practice. Every release from the Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania band has seen them exploring the sonic overlaps of hardcore, emo, and ‘90s alternative rock without an iota of self-consciousness, or pretension, creeping into the mix. The band’s latest is a collection of 11 songs that show One Step Closer reaching for something deeply honest and, as always, authentic.

With founding members Ryan Savitski (vocals) and Ross Thompson (guitar) at the helm of One Step Closer, alongside newest addition Colman O’Brien (guitar), the three were able to fearlessly guide One Step Closer in new directions. Taken in full, All You Embrace is the sound of One Step Closer honoring their past while building a future that looks more open, more creative, and more expansive than anything the band has done before.
