Since June 2022, Salt Lake City based hardcore band Run Into The Sun have been releasing a dual single series tapping into their realist and groove-driven sound. Today, the band shares the fifth installment with the release of Victory / Light. Recorded, mixed and mastered by Nic Kartchner at Grotto Audio, he also features on the pulsating “Victory,” the heavier of the two songs. Vocalist Dan Fletcher breaks through trauma with impassioned vocals over stark riffs.
Expanding on the track, Fletcher shares: “Victory is about healing trauma and breaking habits handed down through generations. Being better. We’re molded by our origins but that doesn’t mean we can’t break free. And breaking those chains ensures that future generations have a stronger foundation.”
Drawing a style comparative to bands like Vision Of Disorder, Snapcase and Turnstile, “Light” packs in that aforementioned groove with unique bass lines and vocals that mix a more direct hardcore approach with a clean, alternative style.
“This track is about slaying your demons head on and knowing that you’re not alone in that fight. That everyone struggles with their own mental health issues. And that seeking and embracing support from others is one powerful way to overcome. There’s always a light beyond the darkness.” shares Fletcher.
