“Afraid that I’m falling behind” repeats as the final refrain of the title track on Feverchild’s debut full-length, “Center of the Earth”. Painfully resonant for anyone grappling with adulthood, the line distills the album’s central themes: longing for love, isolation, and the inescapable pull of memory.
The lead single “Endless” captures the band’s core sound, but it’s on deeper cuts like “Forms of Falling Gently” where the album’s emotional weight fully unfolds. The track begins with a restrained, minimal melody before gradually building toward a powerful crescendo that’s reflective of the album’s overall tension. “Out of My Hands” and “Zero Gravity Hearts” both have driving rhythms and sing-along choruses, while the closer “Turpentine” strips everything back to acoustic guitar and voice, delivering a quiet and intimate final moment.
The fear of falling behind may be daunting, but “Center of the Earth” suggests it could be necessary to progress.
