Perhaps this resistance to change is bred from a place of genuine curiosity (because the unknown is our greatest fear, right?!?). So.... it’s my job in the next few paragraphs to alleviate your panic, here it goooooooes.

First of all, stop freaking out. You’re being ridiculous. Thank you.

Secondly, this name change was born because of some transitions in the members of this band. The dynamics of tightly-knit groups can become incredibly emotional. A Verse Unsung was started with a different group of four great musicians that pursued goals and a musical direction that were unique and important to them. Now, a couple years down the road, a few new faces have been added to the mix, and those old goals and directions aren’t quite accurate anymore. We want our own identity to describe what we want to achieve as a new group of four musicians.

Most importantly, we hope you’re a fan of the band because of the music we create together, and the quality of the character in its members. Everything else isn’t quite as important, wouldn’t you agree?

But ‘fer real, what do ya think of the name? Without this super scary cloud of AVU ‘doom and gloom’ judgment, it’s actually really cool. I think every damn kid out there can recall a time when he or she thought his or her chest may swell and rupture and implode then explode because of some well thought-out bunch o’ sounds delivered into his or her ear. How those sounds heal us so deep down borders divinity, and we’re all in this music game (whether performer or supporter) for those moments (and the designer drugs, and the hot babes, and the cool rusty van).

We love the name New Medicine. We think it correctly represents the four members of the band and what the music means to us. So suck it.

Trust me, NEW MEDICINE is sick. Agreed? Comment below, thanks for your eyes. We want your ears next. Stay tuned ;-)

End Of The World
New Medicine Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I hear the countdown
Am I the only one?
Is it in my head,
Four, Three, Two, ONE!

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

Every morning
Los Angeles
Sun is shining on dreams of the hopeless
California, burn it to the ground
Lets see the ashes all fall down!
Someone give me somethin I can scream out loud!

Lets go crazy, waiting on the big show
Lets go crazy, everybody let go!
What if there is no tomorrow?
For you and me baby, here we go girl
Party til the end of the world!
The end of the world

I'm holding your hand, we're in the front row
Stars are falling, and I'm never gonna let go
Sound the warning, if they only knew
I'll be okay as long as I've got you
Someone give me something I can scream out loud!

Lets go crazy, waiting on the big show
Lets go crazy, everybody let go!
What if there is no tomorrow?
For you and me baby, here we go girl
Party til the end of the world!
The end of the world

Tick tock times up, god already hung up
Tell the lies, say goodbye, Tell me when it all falls down!

Lets go crazy, waiting on the big show
Lets go crazy, everybody let go!
What if there is no tomorrow?
For you and me baby, here we go girl
Lets go crazy, waiting on the big show
Lets go crazy, everybody let go!
What if there is no tomorrow?
For you and me baby, here we go girl
Party til the end of the world!
The end of the world
Party til the end of the world

The end! The end! The end! The end!
Party til the end of the world

Line by Line Meaning

I hear the countdown
I am aware that time is running out

Am I the only one?
Does anyone else feel the same way?

Is it in my head, Four, Three, Two, ONE!
Is this all just my imagination or is the end really near?

Every morning Los Angeles
Every day starts in the same place for the artist

Sun is shining on dreams of the hopeless
There is hope even in dire situations

California, burn it to the ground
A hyperbolic statement suggesting that things are in chaos

Lets see the ashes all fall down!
The aftermath of destruction

Someone give me somethin I can scream out loud!
I need an outlet for my emotions

Lets go crazy, waiting on the big show
We are anticipating the end

Lets go crazy, everybody let go!
Let loose before it's too late

What if there is no tomorrow?
What if this is the end?
