Bloom Unleash Inner Turmoil on New Track Out Of Reach
Sydney melodic hardcore collective Bloom continue their bold evolution with new single “Out Of Reach”, a track that rips deep into emotional unrest and the bitter weight of chasing dreams that never quite deliver. It’s the latest cut from their upcoming album The Light We Chase, due out 31st October 2025 via Pure Noise Records.
Laced with imagery of rot and ash, and powered by a thunderous wall of sound, Out Of Reach captures the mental toll of relentless striving. Jono Hawkey’s blend of harsh and clean vocals intensifies the message — hope warped into disillusionment.
“Here, there is no light,” the band explains. “Out Of Reach asks the question if anything was worth chasing at all.”
Melodic Hardcore with Teeth
Bloom have long operated at the intersection of catharsis and chaos, but Out Of Reach finds the band leaning even harder into discomfort — sonically and lyrically. Opening with the line “Never satisfied, I always push to have it all”, the track is both brutally honest and hauntingly relatable.
As the second preview from The Light We Chase, it hints at the album’s core themes: failed expectations, emotional decay, and the burning need for clarity amidst confusion. Paired with the atmospheric heft of producer Sam Bassal (Ocean Grove, Void Of Vision), the track doesn’t just hit hard — it lingers.
A New Chapter for Bloom
Due out on Halloween 2025, The Light We Chase marks Bloom’s second full-length release, following 2024’s acclaimed Maybe In Another Life. Where that album embraced concept and cohesion, this one dives headlong into chaos and personal reflection.
Featuring guest vocals from Patrick Miranda (Movements), Mikaila Delgado (Yours Truly), and Jack Bergin (Void Of Vision), the new record amplifies the band’s dynamic range — from the crushing “Withered” to the acoustic tenderness of “Tongue Tied”.
“We’re now at a point where we’re very confident in our sound,” says vocalist Jono Hawkey. “And we’re willing to take more risks.”
