Based in Philadelphia, Hurry fuses the melancholic jangle and tunefulness of classic power pop with a fuzzy, '90s-inspired indie rock aesthetic. The project of former Everyone Everywhere member Matthew Scottoline, Hurry grew quickly from a solo endeavor to a proper band over their first two releases. Later albums like 2018's Every Little Thought and 2021's Fake Ideas veered toward warm harmonies and downcast melodic rock. As bassist in Philadelphia band Everyone Everywhere, Matthew Scottoline didn't get much chance to sing or write songs. Instead, he spent his free time writing and recording songs on his own, delving further into power pop and '90s guitar rock than his main band ever did. He named the project Hurry and it kept his creative energy flowing over the decade he had in the band. In 2012, he released an eight-song self-titled record under the Hurry name, playing all the instruments himself. When Everyone Everywhere began to cut back on their schedule in the early 2010s, Scottoline decided to form an actual band, recruiting drummer Rob DeCarolis and a rotating cadre of friends on bass to play live shows. The lineup solidified around DeCarolis on drums and his brother Joe on bass, and they recorded their first album as a band. Everything/Nothing was released in late 2014 by Hot Green Records. They showed up next on Lame-O Records' six-band EP Strength in Weakness, contributing the song "Shake It Off," before heading out on tour later in the year with fellow '90s revivalists Yuck. Hurry stuck with Lame-O for their next album, Guided Meditation, which came out in April of 2016. Where the band's first two releases focused more on fuzzed-out, '90s-driven indie rock, 2018's Every Little Thought emphasized Scottoline's more melodic power pop sensibilities. The warm harmonies and tunefully downcast songwriting style continued on Fake Ideas, Hurry's fourth full-length. Released in June 2021, the album was a fusion of love songs and explorations of anxiety. ~ Tim Sendra, Rovi
