Nottingham pop-punks, As December Falls, have released their highly-anticipated new album, ‘Everything’s On Fire But I’m Fine’.
Speaking of the release, front-woman Bethany Hunter, shares “The last two years have been a whirlwind for us. We’ve had the juxtaposition of doing the SICKEST stuff of our careers – chart positions, playing main stage at festivals, supporting our favourite bands whilst also struggling and trying to make being an independent band in 2025 actually work. Whilst we’re having the best time, everything seems to be on fire at all times!”
After erupting onto the UK pop-punk scene with their breakthrough 2021 album Happier, As December Falls proved they were more than just a rising act — they were a force. Fueled by unshakable independence and a fierce connection with their fans, the band raised the bar even higher with their 2023 chart-smashing record Join The Club, hitting #1 across the UK Official Rock and Metal, Independent Album and Download charts — most notably narrowly missing out on a Top 10 entry on the UK Official Albums Chart, landing at #11.
Now, As December Falls return with Everything’s On Fire But I’m Fine, a bold, brutally honest album that captures the beautiful chaos of chasing a dream while everything else is falling apart. Still balancing day jobs and a relentless tour schedule, the band channel their exhaustion, anxiety, gratitude, and grit into 14 tracks that hit harder than ever — both sonically and emotionally.
From the smoldering intensity of the title track, which sums up the pressure and privilege of their in-between place in the industry, to the visceral vulnerability of songs like Grim Reaper and Angry Cry, this album doesn’t shy away from the mess. It stares it down, laughs, cries and dances right through it.
Whether drawing inspiration from late-night Twitch gaming sessions (Ready Set Go), heartbreak and red flags (Bathroom Floor), or even chaotic best-friend revenge arcs (For The Plot), As December Falls continue to write with a raw, unfiltered honesty that resonates with anyone who’s ever felt overwhelmed, underestimated, or just not quite okay.
As December Falls aren’t here to play it safe — they’re here to burn it all down and build something real in the ashes. And if the last few years are anything to go by, this fire isn’t going out anytime soon.
