									Serpents  Artifacts – Third Single “Some Things Never Change”
With their third single “Some Things Never Change,” Serpents  Artifacts showcase their most melodic and emotionally driven release to date. The song marks a turning point for the band, blending the grit of modern metalcore with a cinematic sense of melody and atmosphere.

Frontman and guitarist Steven James Derby took the creative lead on this track, writing and recording all of the instrumentals at Avalon Studios with producer Adam Teller — the same producer who helped shape the band’s breakout debut single, “Monster.” The continued collaboration between Derby and Teller refines the band’s sound, balancing raw emotion with sharp production and dynamic intensity.

This time, the band leans deeper into melody than sheer aggression. “Some Things Never Change” features soaring vocals and layered harmonies between Derby and Anthony James of Majin Mood, creating a balance of vulnerability and power that gives the song a distinctly human pulse.

Lyrically, the track dives into self-awareness and the struggle to embrace one’s flaws — opening with:

“Once again, still the same story told
Man this never does get old
We in for one helluva ride this time
Lines in the street go past
Every time I go back, feels just like we never left.”

The chorus swells with anthem-like conviction:

“I’m not runnin from myself
No I’m not runnin from myself
Runnin away from all I’ve done
(They keep saying I can’t change)
You can run but you will always be this way
They keep saying that I’m runnin from myself
I’ll never change, hope that’s okay.”

From its introspective verses to its explosive finish, “Some Things Never Change” reflects the band’s evolution — moving from chaos to clarity, from heaviness to heart.

Recorded at Avalon Studios with producer Adam Teller (also behind “Monster”), the track captures the next stage of Serpents  Artifacts’ creative ascent — a sound defined by emotional honesty, relentless energy, and undeniable authenticity.
