Every Time I Die were a hardcore band from Buffalo, New York. They formed in 1998 and released nine albums before disbanding in 2022. Map Change is the closer from their 2016 release, Low Teens. It's a relentless, gargantuan track that has never failed to overwhelm me and then some whenever I listen to it. I don't think I have another song that goes as hard. The band's vocalist Keith Buckley is absolutely nuts on it. I've always loved the rawness of the gritty music video as well, how it bombards you with such clashing imagery. I hope some of you enjoy this one. It's been on my shortlist to share with you for years.

Am I the only one that saw the sun burn out?
The locusts keep their rhythm
My watch is broken down
I wake up and take on water
Sink to the peak of despair
What I need is a cigarette
No more prayers

The planets unaligned
We are saints without a shrine

A storm comes and the city's abandoned
The ship is going down with the captain
A storm comes and the city's abandoned
The ship is going down with the captain

I am the man that sank Atlantis
I am the man that sank Atlantis
I am the man that sank Atlantis
The bottom is not the lowest we get
Further down still the dark's absolute
Further down than that, it's only me and you

I assure you that hell is not a myth
We both vacation there
Hell is not a myth
We spend each winter there
No one can prepare

A storm comes and the city's abandoned
The ship is going down with the captain
A storm comes and the city's abandoned
The ship is going down with the captain

I am the man that sank Atlantis
I am the man that sank Atlantis
I am the man that sank Atlantis
The bottom is not the lowest we get
I thought I knew the best part of the secret
I thought I knew the best part of the secret
I thought I knew the best part of the secret
The truth is the thing we forget

The glory I had witnessed was just a sleight of hand
These hearts cannot be salvaged
These bones cannot withstand
I have either been forgotten or I was never seen
Now I'm in the negative space between

I've weighed down the earth
Through the stars to the pavement
I've weighed down the earth
No use trying to save it
I've weighed down the earth
Through the stars to the pavement
I've weighed down the earth
Not sure I can take it

I've fallen out of frame
A strangled, distant flame

Clenched in the jaws of anguish are only godless men
Chaos is drawn to silence like life is drawn to death
The dusk is so much clearer than the dawn had ever been
I'm a ghost, I'm a ghost and yet

I've weighed down the earth
Through the stars to the pavement
I've weighed down the earth
No use trying to save it

This edition we're sending the New York artist, Post Malone, with his song, Laugh It Off. It's the closing track from his fifth and latest release, 2023's Austin, a record which sees Malone head in new directions with his sound, mostly leaving behind the rap and trap of his previous work to now more pop and rock leaning compositions.

I was stunned as Laugh It Off started playing on the menu screen of the new WWE 2K24 video game. It's a bit of a weird fit for a game where you're supposed to be getting yourself pumped to open up a can of whoop ass on your opponent, but I had to stop what I was doing to listen to it. It caught me way off guard and left me feeling emotional. I love the way the song builds, how each chorus gives you a little bit more before that eventual explosive finale. The "and if I learned anything at all" hook hits me right in the tum tum. I hope you enjoy your time spent with Mr. Malone.

When we was lyin' down on the floor
You said I should smile more
I was killin' your vibe
Pretend I didn't hear your voice
But baby, I was takin' notes
Keep that in mind

Hey, you say you hate me
Ha-ha, I laugh it off
Your mind is made and I can't change it
Somehow

Haven't seen the sun in a month
But it's all sunshine, I forgot how to cry
It feels like pain, pain is a world away
Took my cigarettes and flushed them down the drain, ah
Okay, okay, I'm lyin'

Mm, hey, you say you hate me
Ha-ha, I laugh it off
Your mind is made and I can't change it
Somehow, I laugh it off

And if I learned anything at all
Smile

Talk to me, I know it's over
I'll listen like I did before

Hey, you say you hate me
Ha-ha, I laughed it off
When I fuck up like I have lately
Somehow, I laugh it off

And if I learned anything at all
Smile, smile
And if I learned anything at all
Smile, smile
