Pennsylvanian rock quartet Don’t Panic have released their newest single ‘Honest’, ahead of their upcoming album For Your Consideration set for release April 17th. Pre-save the album now.
Frontman Ted Felicetti shares on the album, “On our upcoming fourth studio album, For Your Consideration, we tried to lean into the tension that has always lived at the core of this band: the push and pull between youthful nostalgia and adult self-reflection. People know us for our energetic pop-punk roots and emotionally charged songwriting , but I think we sharpen both edges here. We tried to confront the idea of getting older in an industry that prioritizes youth, or call back nostalgia, but leave little room for what lives in between. The title is framed almost like a tongue-in-cheek awards submission, we. tried to explore the idea of performative living. Asking what it means to create, to age, and to stay relevant in a culture that constantly recycles the past. The songs move between self-deprecation, frustration, and defiance, and try to capture the feeling of outgrowing the very things that once defined us.
Sonically, the album condenses everything Don’t Panic has built since our formation; melding punchy, fast-paced arrangements with more deliberate, emotionally resonant moments.
At its core, For Your Consideration is about shedding old skin: rejecting the comfort of familiarity, confronting self-made failures, and choosing growth anyway. This is not just a continuation of our story. it’s a statement of intent.”
