One Step Closer released their debut full-length, ‘This Place You Know’, last year on RFC, and since then they’ve grown into one of the most exciting new bands in modern hardcore.

One Step Closer are showing no signs of slowing down and ave shared a new song ‘Dark Blue’ ahead of another year of heavy touring. It finds One Step Closer leaning into the most melodic elements of their sound without sacrificing an ounce of energy. The song’s launches into a towering chorus that pushes the band into even more anthemic territory and offers hints at new potential directions in their music. ‘Dark Blue’ is the start of a compelling new chapter for One Step Closer and listeners should keep an eye out for more from the band in 2023. The group will be on tour for most of the winter and fall with upcoming shows in the U.S., Australia, Southeast Asia, Japan, and more. See full itinerary below.
