“Heart Attack” By Locate S,1
Locate S,1 has shared new single “Heart Attack.” The song is off their forthcoming album Wicked Jaw, available July 28, via Captured Tracks The synth-pop track with a prominent bass groove addresses the process of acknowledging traumatic triggers while finding one’s way forward. The song’s release is accompanied by a video that Schneider directed and edited.
Christina Schneider shares: “I’ve always wanted to write a sexy power pop song à la Klymaxx’s ‘I Look Good’ or Prince’s ‘The Ballad of Dorothy Parker,’ but when I sat down with my LinnDrum samples and started writing, I found that I had a less sexy story to tell.
For people with PTSD, a triggering event causes their brain to revert back to the same exact sensory experience they had when they were originally traumatized. When I wrote this song I didn’t understand why small conflicts could send me spiraling into tears of shame, hopelessness, and rage. My heart pounds, I can’t breathe, and I fall to the floor like a sack of potatoes. Worst of all, I lash out at people. It’s not uncommon to hear me say ‘I feel like I’m having a fucking heart attack!!’ during one of these episodes. When I listen to ‘Heart Attack’ now, it sounds like someone finally admitting they have a problem and pleading for help. It’s a song written by a desperate person who doesn’t want to push people away anymore just to protect their own pain. I’m very far from overcoming my own brain, but writing this song was a first step towards deciding to get real help.”
