If There Is Light, It Will Find You

If There Is Light, It Will Find You is the seventh studio album by American rock band Senses Fail.

Coinciding with this, the band released the stop-gap In Your Absence acoustic EP,[5] which was produced by Saosin guitarist Beau Burchell.

[9] On August 2, it was revealed that former drummer Dan Trapp would be performing drums on the album,[10] which were tracked at Seahorse Studios in Los Angeles with assistant engineer Blake Bunzel.

[8] If There Is Light serves as the first Senses Fail album written solely by vocalist Buddy Nielsen.

[12] All of the lyrics were written by Nielsen, except for a line in "Elevator to the Gallows" by Wesley Eisold of American Nightmare.

[8] He drew inspiration from several events: the birth of his daughter, his wife's near-fatal struggle with multiple sclerosis, the Pulse nightclub shooting, and substance abuse.

[15] It returns to the rock-centric sound of Let It Enfold You[16] after having spent the preceding two albums – Renacer (2013) and Pull the Thorns from Your Heart (2015) – playing in hardcore punk/metal territory.

This song addresses those losses and how I have tried to intervene in people’s addictions over the years [...] So many of us in this country have a friend or loved one who has lost their battle, and I thought it was important to highlight that struggle.

[7] On January 9, 2018, drummer Chris Hornbrook parted ways with the band,[20] and was replaced by Steve Carey of the Color Morale.

[23] On February 1, "New Jersey Makes, the World Takes" was made available for streaming via Alternative Press's website.

With a line-up of Nielsen, guitarists Caswell and Jason Milbank, bassist Greg Styliades and aforementioned Carey, the group went on a headlining US tour in February and March.

[26] The clip features the band going through various tasks in an attempt to win Demi Lovato's affection, ranging from learning to dance to eating food she enjoys.

Nielsen said all of the members were big fans of Lovato and had previously tried to get her to acknowledge them on Twitter, so they decided to make a video about that.

Neil Z. Yueng from Allmusic stated the album was " heavy, cathartic, and honest statement from [the band]" and it features "punchy punk blasts while maintaining a trademark helpless and nihilistic mood.
