Hurry

Hurry return with Zoned Out, their seventh full-length and latest release for Lame-O Records. The Philadelphia band, led by Matt Scottoline, uses the album to process two years shaped by creative block, personal transition, and rediscovery, following 2023’s Don’t Look Back.

Across 10 fuzzy, melodic songs, Scottoline writes about growth, online dating, anxiety, and the impending experience of fatherhood. The title reflects a tendency to retreat inward when big decisions start to feel overwhelming, but the record pushes through that fog with the band’s usual supply of jangly guitars, warm power-pop hooks, and scrappy indie-rock lift.

Zoned Out was engineered by Ian Farmer of Modern Baseball and Slaughter Beach, Dog. Rob DeCarolis appears on drums, Joe DeCarolis on bass, Justin Fox contributes guitar, and Teenage Fanclub’s Gerard Love guests on “Moving After You.” Scottoline says the title track is about facing “big questions and anxieties” without totally zoning out.

The album will be released on vinyl by Lame-O Records and, according to the press announcement, will not be available on streaming services.
