Nottingham pop-punk group As December Falls are back with "Therapy," a deeply personal new track about music and songwriting as a form of emotional release. Bethany Curtis leads vocals, with Ande Hunter on guitar, Timmy Francis on bass, and Kiaran Hegarty on drums, giving the band a collective honesty in a song about why music can feel so personal.
The song "Therapy" was written by Ande Hunter, Bethany Hunter, and Tommylee Francis and produced by Alex Copp, with the idea behind the track coming from the band's JTC tour and meeting people who told us that listening to As December Falls' music was a form of therapy, which made us realize that the songwriting process can be a similar kind of release.
This idea provides a particularly human basis for "Therapy." The song doesn't see music as entertainment, but rather as something that can unearth feelings hidden deep within, just waiting for an outlet. That concept is instantly relatable, especially for anyone who has ever played a song that meant something to them during a hard time, or turned their feelings into a song.
"Therapy" explores the relationship between a band and its audience. The inspiration came from people connecting to the music of As December Falls, but the song itself swings that connection back to the creative process. It celebrates music as a communal emotional space where artists can express what they didn't know they were carrying, and listeners can find something that resonates with their own experiences.
