To celebrate the release of ''FEVEREATEN', Witch Fever visits Kingston to play an in-store set.Since forming in 2017, Witch Fever – Amy Walpole (vocals/lyrics), Alex Thompson (bass), Alisha Yarwood (guitar), and Annabelle Joyce (drums) – have leaped to the forefront of a flourishing UK alternative scene without really fitting into any of its pockets. Fusing punk ferocity with gothic unease, doom-laden atmospherics, and raw vulnerability, the band’s 2022 debut 'Congregation' drew critical acclaim for its cathartic power and blistering intensity. Now, with 'Fevereaten', they push their sound further into uncharted territory.
Produced by Chris W. Ryan (NewDad, Just Mustard, Enola Gay), 'Fevereaten' is the result of a deliberate and expansive creative process. Heavier, darker, and stranger than its predecessor, the record draws from metal, ambient, hardcore, and slowcore, layering cello, noise textures, and haunting melodies atop their ever-pummelling foundation. “We wanted to sound bigger,” says Thompson. “To push our sound in ways we couldn’t in a room together.”
Lyrically, 'Fevereaten' continues to draw from Walpole’s past in the Charismatic Church, but now from a perspective of clarity and reclamation. The album’s title speaks to the gothic intensity and emotional extremes at its core – the feeling of being consumed by trauma, history, or identity. “It’s about being on the edge but never quite falling off,” says Walpole, who was diagnosed with autism during the writing process – a moment that reframed much of her life and creative output.
