Review: Scarboro – Hate Season

At a time when it’s easy to feel angry about the state of the world, Scarboro have returned with their sophomore album, called Hate Season, that encapsulates these feelings into a cohesive package of punk rock. The set was produced by Brian DiMeglio and Scarboro, and was mastered by Will Yip. The NYC-based band is Jack (bass/vocals), Shi (guitar/vocals), and Radhika (drums), and their tight-knit musicianship is reminiscent of other punk bands like The Explosion, early-Bad Religion, and The Casualties. Sprawling 14 songs and clocking in at just over 27 minutes, Hate Season is a blast of punk rock energy that rarely lets up on its attack.

Fea – “Careful” (Video Premiere)

Fea

Today is a great day to share the new music video from San Antonio-based punk rock band, Fea, called ”Careful.” The band shares, “‘Careful’ is my personal anthem—a reminder to speak up and not walk on eggshells for anyone. Abuse comes in many forms, and conditioning a person is one of them. I was lucky to have a strong support system, but not everyone has that. Writing this song was cathartic, and I hope it helps anyone who’s been through a similar situation.” The track is especially timely amid broader conversations around sexual assault, abuse of power, and the pressures on women to stay small and quiet—issues that resonate deeply within punk and music communities. With “Careful,” Fea aim to speak directly to younger women and LGBTQ+ listeners, offering guidance from lived experience: be unapologetic, speak up, and don’t shrink yourself for anyone. If you’re enjoying the new music video, please consider supporting the band here.
