It's great to have new music from Life's Question. I've been a fan of the band since they dropped their Cursed the Will to Dream EP back in 2018, instantly falling in love with their penchant for groove-driven rhythms, melody, and meaty guitar riffs. It's hardcore with plenty of bite but it's channeled through with a fine focus on songwriting and making things memorable, not just thrown together parts.
Life's Question's last release was 2022's full-length album, World Full of…, and since then, the band has inked a deal with Flatspot Records, making them labelmates with such heavy-hitters as Scowl, End It, and Karma.
"When I Meet God" is the first single from Life's Question's forthcoming debut release for Flatspot, a 6-song self-titled EP. The song finds lead singer Josh Haynes trading vocal lines with guitarist Abby Rhine who's melodic approach lends the track a radio-ready sheen.
The story-driven video for "When I Meet God" was produced and directed by Luis Hernandez, vocalist of Los Angeles hardcore band Alpha & Omega:
Life’s Question will launch a tour supporting Koyo, One Step Closer, and Anxious starting tomorrow in Hamden, Connecticut at Space Ballroom. They will also be part of the Flatspot World showcase at South by Southwest on March 16th with Scowl, End It, Day by Day, Buggin, and Karma at the Mohawk.
The Life's Question EP will arrive in stores on April 19th via Flatspot Records (pre-order).
