There’s no sugarcoating it, One Who May Ascend’s new single "Life & Death" is a sonic gut-punch, a raw monologue from the edge of collapse. Unapologetically intense and emotionally charged, OMA invites us into the chaos of a mind wrestling with its darkness.
“Life & Death” isn’t your typical narrative. It's fragmented, poetic, and brutally honest, like pages ripped from a journal mid-breakdown. Lines hit like confessions: confused, defiant, vulnerable. And while the lyrics spiral through mental unrest, loss, and existential dread, the performance remains fearless.
The track’s official AMV debut adds visual weight to its emotional gravity. Through a storm of anime visuals and layered metaphors, OMA reinforces the message: the line between living and surviving isn’t always clear. This marks a new chapter for the artist, melding storytelling with cinema, taking us beyond audio into a full sensory experience.
There are no neat endings or polished metaphors here. Instead, One Who May Ascend gives us unfiltered truth, wrapped in distorted beats and searing vocals.
One Who May Ascend is starting a conversation about mental health, identity, and survival. “Life & Death” is a cry for help, a war cry, and a mirror, depending on who's listening. Either way, it's unforgettable.
