This is not an album. This is an experience.

TRIGGERS is a psychological experiment disguised as music — a deliberate, immersive descent into the darkest corners of trauma, built to seduce, disorient, and devastate.

What begins as danceable, hypnotic, club-ready production slowly unravels into a visceral portrait of mania, hypersexuality, addiction, dissociation, sexual violence, abuse, and survival. 

Every beat draws you in. Every lyric cuts deeper. By the time you realize what you’re truly listening to, you’re already inside it.

This project was never meant to be safe. It was meant to make you feel. It was built for those who’ve walked through fire.

And for those who haven’t — this may be the closest you’ll ever come to understanding what it means to fall apart.

Each song acts as a trigger, by design. The goal is not to exploit, glorify, or shock, but to simulate emotional truth through sensory immersion. The trauma in these tracks is not abstract. It’s lived, it’s real, and it’s relentless.

Due to financial limitations, while every lyric is original and deeply personal, the vocals are AI-generated. The economy makes real-world production difficult — but the vision demanded to be made, even through imperfect tools. Authentic emotion remains at the core.

If you’re looking for a safe space, this isn’t it. But if you need something that doesn’t flinch, doesn’t soften, and doesn’t lie — step forward.

No One Came

CUT is a 12-track conceptual album by Echo Fever that confronts the long arc of trauma, grooming, and queer survival with stark, unflinching honesty.

Presented as a series of vivid psychological vignettes, the album traces one boy’s experience from coercion at fourteen through years of silence, displacement, rage, and relapse. Each track builds on the last, forming a cohesive emotional and narrative arc grounded in brutal realism rather than metaphor.

This is not an album that offers comfort or closure. It is not designed for casual listening. CUT stands as an act of witness — giving voice to survivors who have endured in silence, and articulating the often unspoken realities of post-traumatic life with clarity and intent.

Content Advisory:
Contains explicit references to child sexual abuse, rape, grooming, coercion, dissociation, and psychological breakdown. Listener discretion is strongly advised.

Production Note:
All lyrics and compositions are original and deeply personal. Due to financial constraints, vocal performances are AI-generated. While traditional production was not possible at the time of release, the urgency of this work demanded it be made. Its emotional core remains entirely authentic.

Corner

What if the one you pushed away was the one you never stopped loving?

I Still Feel It is a heartbreak anthem for anyone who has walked away from something real and regretted it every day since. Told through the eyes of a man who reconnects with someone he once loved, the song explores memory, silence, and the moment a single message reopens everything you thought you buried.

From quiet snowfall to emotional collapse, it builds with raw male vocals, chant-worthy hooks, and glitchy synth textures that refuse to let go. This is not about closure. It is about unfinished love, reopened wounds, and the hope that maybe it is not too late.

If you have ever looked back and whispered, “I still feel it,” this one is for you.

Originally released in March 2025 and recently remastered, Photos of You Before the Lie Set In is the story of what happens when love turns into something unrecognizable. It’s not a song about heartbreak—it’s a song about the moment you realize the person lying next to you already left long ago.

Graphic. Honest. Unforgiving. This track dives into betrayal, mental health, survival, and the kind of grief that doesn’t ask permission.

Some listeners say it’s the most brutal thing they’ve ever heard. Others say it helped them get through the worst year of their life.

Either way, once you press play… you won’t forget it.

Echo Fever is a dark, synth-driven project with Joseph Matthews as its creative engine, dedicated to exploring the intersections of trauma, desire, memory, and survival. The music blends lush, pulsing electronic landscapes with raw, confessional storytelling, inviting listeners into a world that is both painfully intimate and cinematic in scale.

This is not safe, casual listening. Echo Fever’s work confronts subjects many would rather avoid. Tracks delve into lived experiences of grooming, sexual violence, addiction, dissociation, hypersexuality, and the long, uneven process of reclaiming selfhood. The intent is never to exploit or shock for its own sake. Each song serves as testimony, giving voice to what is often left unsaid and illuminating realities rarely addressed in art.

The debut album, TRIGGERS, functions as a psychological experiment framed by music. It begins with hypnotic, club-ready production that gradually fractures into vivid portraits of mania, overdose, sexual violation, and survival. Every beat seduces and destabilizes, pulling the listener deeper until they are immersed in a narrative that refuses to look away.

The follow-up, CUT, is a conceptual narrative album chronicling one boy’s experience from the moment of coercion at fourteen through years of silence, displacement, rage, and relapse. Each track builds on the last, creating an unrelenting emotional and psychological arc grounded in brutal realism. CUT does not offer comfort or closure. It stands as a work of witness, giving voice to survivors who have endured in silence and revealing the long shadow of post-traumatic life with stark clarity.

Echo Fever is currently developing even now, a project that turns its focus to fragile queer adolescence and the bruised beauty of trying to understand love, identity, and self-worth. Still in progress, it promises to add another layer to the evolving narrative of trauma, tenderness, and reclamation that defines Echo Fever’s body of work.

These albums are not abstract. They are rooted in authentic human experiences and created with deliberate emotional intent. While financial constraints have necessitated the use of AI-generated and or AI-assisted vocals on the recordings, every lyric and composition is original and deeply personal. The urgency to give these stories voice has always outweighed the need for perfect tools. At the center of Echo Fever is a commitment to telling the truth, however fractured or uncomfortable that truth may be.

Content includes explicit themes of trauma, abuse, and survival. Listener discretion is advised.

Echo Fever does not aim to provide sanctuary from hard realities. Instead, it offers an unflinching reflection of what it means to endure, to break, and to find uneasy moments of beauty in the aftermath. This is music for late nights and vulnerable spaces, for anyone who needs art that does not soften or lie.
