All You Embrace boldly expands the scope of One Step Closer's sound, offering their most anthemic and passionate work to date. 'Orange Leaf' follows earlier singles 'Leap Years' and 'Giant's Despair' (which garnered attention from the likes of BBC Radio 1, Stereogum, BrooklynVegan, AltPress, Uproxx, and more), and offers another glimpse of the band's evolution on All You Embrace. Packing plenty of post-hardcore bite and a soaring chorus, the track proves that OSC are just as deft with melody as they are with aggression.

The album follows 2021's This Place You Know and 2023's Songs For The Willow, which catapulted One Step Closer into the ranks of the most exciting new bands coming out of hardcore. All You Embrace makes good on all of that potential, leaning into the most melodic elements of the band's sound without sacrificing an ounce of energy. The album finds One Step Closer exploring the sonic overlaps of hardcore, emo, '90s alternative, and more - resulting in the most ambitious songs they've ever written.

“I wanted to showcase One Step Closer in its fullest state,” explains vocalist Ryan Savitski. “Every single part of the band, I wanted it to be there. I wanted us to be 100% ourselves and be as authentic to our band as we could possibly be.” And All You Embrace is certainly imbued with that sense of identity, a testament to knowing who you are in a world of uncertainties, and a powerful new era for One Step Closer.

One Step Closer are touring non-stop in support of All You Embrace. Their next round of shows sees them heading to the UK and EU, including an appearance at Slam Dunk Festival. 

UK dates: 

May 25: Hatfield, Slam Dunk Festival
May 26: Leeds, Slam Dunk Festival 
May 27: Nottingham Rescue Rooms
