Last month the Philadelphia band Hurry announced their 7th full-length, Zoned Out, which will be released on their longtime label home Lame-O on July 10th.
Engineered by Ian Farmer of Modern Baseball and Slaughter Beach, Dog, the album features Rob and Joe DeCarolis on drums and bass, respectively, with Justin Fox contributing guitar. The album is a relic of two years shaped by challenge, creative block, and rediscovery, following the end of a stagnant long term relationship surrounding 2023’s Don’t Look Back.Across 10 fuzzy songs, Scottoline explores growth, online dating, and eventually the impending experience of fatherhood.
The band announced the record with the title track, which Stereogum said “lands right in Hurry’s jangly, dreamy sweet spot,” and today they’re back with a second single entitled “Moving After You,” which features Scottoline’s songwriting idol, Gerard Love of the power pop icons Teenage Fanclub.
Scottoline says of the track:
My last album was called Don’t Look Back, a title I borrowed from a Teenage Fanclub song written by Gerard Love. He’s my favorite songwriter from my favorite band.
When we were touring in the UK in support of that album we had been covering Teenage Fanclub’s “Don’t Look Back” as part of our set, and Gerry was gracious enough to get on stage and sing it with us at the Glasgow show. To this day, I regard that show as one of the best I’ve ever played. It meant so much to share the stage with Gerry, and it felt very full circle. It was magic.
After that tour, Gerry and I casually kept in touch over email. I’d send him updates on what I was working on, and he’d share his progress on his music. When I was writing “Moving After You”, I wrote a layered vocal in the bridge that felt like it would work best with a second singer. I sort of knew from the moment I wrote it that I wanted Gerry to do it and I was thrilled he was up for it. Having Gerard Love sing on one of my songs still feels surreal — it’s a very full circle moment for me.
The new Hurry LP will be released on vinyl by Lame-O in July. The album will not be on streaming services.
