Hurry has infused the best characteristics of 90s bubblegum power pop - perfect songwriting, pop-rock sparkle, and almost sugary vocal melodies - into something much rawer and emotionally resonant. Don't Look Back strikes with its tenderness and candor - about half of the album's lyrics concern the deterioration of an 11-year relationship that Scottoline was involved in, while the other half celebrates a new love. This is pop music that speaks of real feelings, making it better than most pop music, stimulating and addictive. There isn't a single moment on Don't Look Back that isn't completely infused with melody and emotion. "Parallel Haunting" evokes the melodic pain of Evan Dando's golden age; "Little Brain" sounds like the golden age of Evan Dando and the golden age of Noel Gallagher. Don't Look Back is, in a word, bittersweet, with melodies that hit like a jackhammer on the pleasure center of the brain and lyrics that feel like a knife to the heart. Produced and directed by Ian Farmer (Slaughter Beach, Dog / Modern Baseball). Pressed on blue splatter purple vinyl.
