Eugene S. Robinson (Oxbow, Bunuel, Whipping Boy) comments on SCATTERBOX, "Vintage AND new the music rises above the merely nostalgic to make you want to spray paint the walls, grab your skate, and fuck shit up. And with several and copious nods to post-punk sensibilities [via song titles, design aesthetic], it dawns that SCATTERBOX should be a lot bigger than they are with their heartfelt pre-post take on all of the loud fast rules. But they should be a lot of things probably: not living in Idaho, getting real and paying jobs, cutting out that racket. However, it would be our sincere hope that they continue existing for the sheer and pure fact that they make hard music to play well look easy and sound like they fucking mean it in the process, which is much, much more than 98 percent of the things you’ll hear this week that’ll work their way into your brain pans.
"Hardcore the way hardcore was played when it meant something to play it. We love these fucking guys. And you should too."
The band is currently in the writing process of what will be their next full-length record, scheduled for release in 2023, with tour dates to follow.
