Pop rock project Floor Space celebrates the announcement of their third studio album with the release of their triumphant single, “Smile While It’s Ending.” Produced by John Naclerio (My Chemical Romance, Brand New), the track is an anthemic effort that delves into the frustration and struggles of growing up, self-destruction, and acceptance.

The single opens with a flurry of infectious guitar riffs, full bass lines, and driving percussion. Memorable hooks frame poignant lyrics that cover a variety of experiences, from catholic school traumas to grappling with self-worth as an adult, with frontman Charlie Bruno portraying the relatable traumas with his tongue-in-cheek writing style. Their upbeat riff, raw honesty, and humor allow them to overcome hardships, break vices, and overpower the fear of trying new things.

"'Smile While It's Ending' is a song about powering through the final moments and making light of it all," shared Charlie. "It's also largely about intoxication, catholic school traumas, and my fear of trying new vegetables."

The track ends on a satisfying high, with the singer throttling full force into an avalanche of sonics. Crashing drum patterns, angsty guitars, and thrumming bass lines intensify during the final chorus as he reflects on someday "coming out on top" before the piece ends with high-octane gusto.

"Smile While It's Ending" is just a taste of what's to come from Floor Space's most striking project yet. Their forthcoming exemplary pop-punk album, Maybe This Is It, is honest and angry, yet bright and cathartic, with themes ranging from punk rock politics to overcoming adversity and breaking cycles. Stay tuned for more music off Maybe This Is It, out October 20.
