Spark of Life’s latest single, “In Pursuit Of,” channels the raw energy of post-hardcore while weaving in the poignant spirit of heartland rock. By diving into love, risk, and regret, Spark of Life’s seamless blend creates a song that is not only musically striking but emotionally loud.
Opening with a riff that is infectious, the track’s melody is both powerful and reflective. This foundation sets the stage for Steve Jennings’ gripping vocal delivery, which oscillates between vulnerability and fierce determination. The production strikes a fine balance by allowing each instrument to shine while maintaining an unrelenting forward momentum.
On the track, Steve says,
“Matters of the heart are always risky. ‘In Pursuit Of’ is about knowing those risks and deciding to chase the love your heart wants anyway…even though it might break in the end.”
It’s this honest and unapologetic approach to storytelling that makes “In Pursuit Of” stand out. The song’s emotional core captures a universal yet deeply personal sentiment which makes it feel intimate even in its most anthemic moments.
With “In Pursuit Of,” Spark of Life showcases their ability to evolve while staying true to their post-hardcore roots. It’s a track that not only hooks you with its melody but leaves an impression through its authenticity. This single serves as a promising preview of their upcoming album, Plagued by the Human Condition (out later this year), and a testament to their mastery in crafting songs that resonate with the head and the heart.
