Witch Fever information us monitor by monitor by means of their new album ‘FEVEREATEN’ which is out now by way of Music For Nations.
1. DEAD TO ME!
An indignant one to kick off the album and tie this album into our first album Congregation. It’s about rising up as a lady anticipated to be candy and cute and type, however being let down by the church that promised to maintain everybody secure however ended up placing me in weak positions round unsafe folks. It’s about reclaiming anger and discovering consolation & energy in it. It’s not about forgiveness, it’s about holding onto your energy and utilizing it productively.
2. FINAL GIRL
This one ties into Lifeless To Me. It’s about surviving all of the shit you’ve gone by means of and utilizing anger to gas your need to maintain going. Once I’m struggling I attempt to see myself as my very own finest good friend, and imagine that I have already got all the pieces I must preserve going.
3. THE GARDEN
About Eve’s sins liberating me (metaphorically after all) and the way I discover inspiration by means of a narrative of somebody within the bible that I used to be taught to hate. I assume it’s a little bit of a love letter and an apology to all the ladies in historical past which were regarded down on by the patriarchy, and it’s about coping with internalised misogyny that girls have grown up with due to that. Additionally, Eve’s fuckin scorching!
4. NORTHSTAR
About my household and I feeling left behind by the church and dropping my religion after they’d made massive guarantees about all the time being ‘household’ and being a help community it doesn’t matter what.
5. DRANK THE SAP
Drank the Sap was initially written about realizing a relationship I cherished was going to finish, however since recording the album it’s taken on a distinct that means for me. My mum died in September this 12 months after a protracted battle with most cancers, and now so most of the lyrics of this music remind me of sitting within the hospice together with her ready for her to move. Each time we carry out it I simply consider her now.
6. SAFE
A bit love music! It was initially written after I was in a relationship, however after we broke up we grew to become shut mates so the music is a bittersweet ballad a couple of relationship turned friendship.
7. FEVEREATEN
I wrote this after I realised I couldn’t cease writing concerning the church and what my household and I had been by means of. After Congregation I supposed to maneuver away from writing about it however I couldn’t assist myself. It’s about feeling exhausted by the truth that I wrestle to maneuver on from it. It’s about feeling indignant that I depend on help from others and appear to search out life harder to maneuver by means of than most of my mates as a result of I used to be recognized with autism in my late 20s. The tip makes method for a launch although. The tip leans into the frustration I really feel and says that typically you simply gotta let it swallow you up for a sec and revel in dwelling on the sting each occasionally.
8. BURN TO HIT
Once more, about non secular trauma. About attempting to suit into the mould that the church compelled on us, however finally breaking out of it.
9. SEE YA NEXT TUESDAY
One other indignant one! It’s about admitting that typically all of us lean into self destruction, and it’s additionally about taking accountability in your errors and paving a strategy to being a greater particular person and loving your self. We known as it see ya subsequent tuesday coz I scream cunt on the finish, however we additionally apply each Tuesday and have completed for years so it has a cute lil double that means.
10. REPRISE
Reprise is about feeling disgrace in being a part of a church whose teachings I strongly disagree with. It’s about feeling haunted by the religion I used to have that now as an grownup I couldn’t really feel additional away from.
11. AMBER
Amber is a couple of tour fling! It’s a couple of scenario that was tremendous brief lived and intense, however kinda stunning as a result of that’s all it might be.
12. I SEE IT
I See It pulls collectively the overarching theme of the album. It’s about being watched, haunted, adopted by one thing however not having the ability to put your finger on what. I grew up considering God was watching all the pieces I did, and I’ve by no means fairly been capable of shake that feeling, regardless of being an atheist now. Is it God watching me, or am I being haunted on my own and my very own previous? It’s about seeing it in all the pieces I do.
