Saahil Bhargava drops the new single ‘Ascent’

After establishing himself as one of the more exciting new artists emerging right now, Indian-American musician Saahil Bhargava returns once again with another bold and blistering offering with ‘Ascent’.

Continuing more of that raw and energetic alt-rock direction he is known for, ‘Ascent’ sees him unleash a bold and thunderous flurry of guitar hooks and pulsing drums. With his impactful vocals leading the charge, he is giving us another heady dose of unbridled power with this one.

Speaking about the track, he said, “It’s something that can be very relatable to gamers who play online team games like Fortnite, Valorant, PUBG or even Pokemon Unite. While the first player is being cautious and making sure the team is staying together with a plan, the second player just rushes out and starts attacking, getting himself killed and screwing over his partner in the process. A pretty common scenario, like losing your jungler in a MOBA and then the support players have to start attacking because they have no choice. This song explores that relationship through the lens of a famous Greek myth, and from the perspective of the other character (usually it is from Icarus’ perspective or neutral).”
