Resonating a hard-punching adrenaline-fueled rock sound PALOOKA brings forth big thick two-guitar songwriting with strong vocals remedies to soothe the soul. Releasing their title track "Save Yourself" from their forthcoming EP due out in February 2024. The band is previewing their second track off the record. Entitled "Cut You Out of Me", the song embraces change and perseverance to heal oneself with its exciting and irresistible chorus backed by its intense vintage guitar-driven riffs. It's straight-up rock n' roll that is all truth and pushes to rediscover oneself.
"PALOOKA is thrilled to unveil our latest song, 'Cut You Out of Me.' This track delves into the aftermath of the end of a significant long-term relationship. Even when parting ways is the right thing, there are haunting emotions tied to the void, the missed opportunities, and the unrealized potential. 'Cut You Out of Me' is a journey of reclaiming one's strength and forging a path forward." adds

PALOOKA hails from Seattle, USA, singer Chuck Campbell belts out melody lines full of emotion and purpose with tenacity. Chris Quinn and Glen Logan trade flurries of devastating and searing guitar punches reminiscent of a barroom brawl. All of which sits on the rock-solid pounding foundation built on the talents of Howard Binner on bass and the percussive mauler Jason Reavis on drums. This powerhouse of rock has been making waves since their debut album “What’s Wrong With Wanting Everything” in 2011. They have come a long way since then and their forthcoming 2024 EP “Save Yourself”.
As fans of a wide assortment of genres, PALOOKA channeled their influences into an energy and intensity that is all their own. They made a point to push their boundaries and across the upcoming EP, listeners can expect to hear elements of metal, blues, 70’s rock, grunge, alternative, and more.
Mostly written throughout the pandemic, the songs on “Save Yourself” were born from the unique environment of physical isolation, which not only left its mark on the personal themes of the songs but also played a pivotal role in the collaborative process. Interestingly, PALOOKA didn’t consciously decide on the track lineup. Instead, the songs, along with the circumstances that led to their creation, organically determined which songs found their place on “Save Yourself”. Loud, classic, and accessible PALOOKA is recommended for fans of Cheap Trick, Alice in Chains, and AC/DC.
"Save Yourself" will be released on February 23, 2024.
