Today they are releasing, “The Road,” a weighted, sprawling track that digests betrayal and the emotions that come along with it. some fear was recorded in the band’s home studio and self-produced with mastering from Boone Patrello (Teethe).


“I wanted "The Road" to be the heaviest song on the album based on the subject matter,"  bandleader Branden Palesano explains. “It’s about someone in my past doing something so irredeemable, even though the patterns were there and I should’ve seen it coming, and feeling betrayed by them.”

ABOUT SOME FEAR:

some fear began as a solo endeavor in 2021 in Oklahoma City, OK when Branden “Bran” Palesano released a rough demo on Bandcamp. The project, initially driven by his solitary songwriting process—where he dwells on his thoughts and crafts chord progressions in one sitting—soon evolved into a full band. Bran’s vision was realized with the addition of Ray Morgan, Lennon Bramlett, and James Tunell, who added another dimension to the sound. The band’s sound can be described as chill and melancholic, a blend of slowcore and lo-fi rock that resonates with a profound sense of introspection. From a solitary project to a dynamic quartet, some fear continues to carve out a unique niche in the music scene with their deeply personal and genre-blending approach.
