In times of uncertainty, sometimes the best response is to keep pushing forward. The Schisms express this determination in their new song “All The Good Things,” the second single from their upcoming EP Tejas. The song was produced by Stuart Sikes, a Grammy-winning producer known for working with artists like The White Stripes and Cat Power. It explores struggle while holding on to hope.
What makes this song special is its message of resilience. Instead of offering a simple, happy outlook, “All The Good Things” acknowledges the challenges and heartaches that come with living in a stressful world. It encourages overwhelmed listeners to keep moving forward, giving the song an emotional depth many people can relate to.
The song's creation reflects this spirit of determination. Carson Barker, the band’s singer, songwriter, and guitarist, came up with the main idea before teaming up with Sikes to reshape the track multiple times. This process of revising and refining helped make the final version embody the very persistence the song promotes.
There is something powerful about a song that reflects its own journey. The way “All The Good Things” was created gives it a sense of survival, showing how it has overcome challenges. Instead of hiding any flaws, it embraces them as part of what makes it strong. As the second preview of the EP Tejas, this single sets an exciting tone for what’s to come. Its message of resilience is especially relevant today, when it’s easy to feel lost in uncertainty.
