“Hot Singles In Your Area” by Scene Queen – Album Review

Hannah Rose Collins, better known as Scene Queen, has dropped a new album that’s turning heads and cranking up speakers. “Hot Singles In Your Area” is a wild ride through what she calls “Bimbocore,” and trust us, it’s as fun as it sounds.

From the get-go, “Finger” grabs you with catchy riffs and Collins’ cheeky lyrics. It’s the kind of song that’ll have you hitting repeat. “Pink Push Up Bra” isn’t just about underwear – it’s a metal-powered anthem about feeling good in your skin.

The album keeps the energy high with tracks like “Stuck” and “Barbie and Ken” (featuring Set it Off). These aren’t your typical love songs – they’re more like love letters to chaos, with beats that’ll make your neighbours complain.

Scene Queen doesn’t pull any punches with songs like “18+”, “MILF”, and “Whips & Chains”. They’re angry, they’re loud, and they’re not afraid to get a little naughty. “Girls Gone Wild”, featuring Wargasm, mixes it up with different sounds, while “Mutual Masturbation” stands out as a catchy tune with a message about being overlooked in the music world.

The album closes with “Climax”, a softer track that shows off Scene Queen’s range. It’s got an old-school pop-punk vibe that fits surprisingly well with her usual sound.

Collins, who got her start on TikTok, has created something unique here. She’s taken metalcore, added a heap of feminist themes, and covered it all in hot pink glitter. The result? An album that’s as rebellious as it is catchy.
