Awaiting Abigail, a rock band from Dallas, has released a single that defies normal post-grunge expectations with Falling Under. The track is a sonic portrayal of intricacies of dysfunctional relationships and is delivered with an appropriate and substantial amount of raw emotionality. The front-woman Abigail Hill displays the ruthlessness of a warrior alongside achieving smooth transitions into a soft ethereal whisper. Considering the track’s heavy metal essence fused with deep emotional narratives, it is self evident that it showcases the band’s striking musical chemistry.
There is elegance within the instrumentation which is crafted by James Smith and Mike Tolfa through a harmony which complements the song with uneven riffs and tender melodies. Moreover, Heather Hammonds provides mesmerizing cascading rhythms through her percussion which enhances the songs narrative arc. However, what truly differs “Falling Under” is how it conveys its theme of vulnerability without censorship. The song focuses towards pinpointing how certain individuals may get entrapped within toxic relationships rather than solely exiting them.
The mix hints a more nihilistic approach with regards to thoughts, while showing a secluded path towards self realization. There are traces of The Pretty Reckless and Halestorm within their sound, but Awaiting Abigail doesn’t purely endorse their predecessors. They are making their own unique place in the world of rock music through combining emotion and elitist techniques.Now that it’s out, it’s a declaration that peoples hidden feelings exist, and many to a great extent blend into a complex ball of emotions, causing chaos, raw energy, but the ones who ever have the courage read between the lines of fuse, will understand the true beauty of the song.
