"The Fear" was the third single Trust Company pulled from The Lonely Position of Neutral, their 2002 debut, and it went out in 2003, after "Downfall" and "Running from Me". The four men on the recording share the writing credit: frontman Kevin Palmer, who sings lead and plays guitar, fellow guitarist James Fukai, bassist Josh Moates and drummer Jason Singleton. Don Gilmore produced it, and Andy Wallace mixed, with Steve Sisco assisting.

By then "Downfall" had already broken the band, the one-time 41Down, its video of Palmer walking down a street while the wind blows everything behind him away getting real play on MTV2. The album eventually went gold and remains their most successful.
