Pre-Order: Zoned Out (Beig) [Colored Vinyl] (Grn) (Oliv) (ONLINE ORDER ONLY)

Matt Scottoline-singer, songwriter, and leader of Philadelphia's finest indie rock band, HURRY-is a worrier. It's understandable; we're living in anxious times, with the world changing so quickly it's hard to keep up. For Matt, though, those anxieties hit closer to home this time: impending fatherhood, a milestone birthday on the horizon, and lingering questions about his place in the musical landscape. Does the world really need a new Hurry album?Judging by the ten songs that make up Zoned Out-Hurry's sixth full-length and fourth for Lame-O Records-the answer is a resounding yes. Recorded at The Metal Shop by Ian Farmer and co-produced by Farmer and Scottoline, the album finds Hurry operating at full strength. Backed once again by Rob DeCarolis on drums, Joe DeCarolis on bass, and Justin Fox on guitar, the band sounds tighter than ever-so in sync it all feels effortless. From the opening track, 'All Sunk In,' with it's chugging electric guitars and earworm melody, the tone is set immediately. 'Moving After You,' the album's standout, features Gerard Love. It's timeless pop music made for these times.
