If you’ve been waiting for a band to bring back that raw, unapologetic, and effortlessly cool rock energy—the kind that makes you want to throw on a leather jacket and blast music out of your car speakers—The Space Turtles have arrived. Their latest single, “Memory Lane”, is the ultimate anthem for anyone who’s ever been caught between missing the past and laughing at how ridiculous it all was. It’s nostalgic, catchy as hell, and packed with enough energy to remind you why rock music will never die.
There are songs you hear once and immediately forget—and then there are songs like “Memory Lane.” From the first guitar riff, you’re hooked. By the second chorus, you somehow know all the lyrics. It’s got that perfect mix of youthful recklessness and emotional weight, wrapped in a melody that’s impossible to shake. The Space Turtles aren’t just making music; they’re making moments—ones that feel like a hazy summer night spent with friends, screaming lyrics into the sky, not caring who’s listening.
“Memory Lane” isn’t just about reminiscing—it’s about embracing the chaos of growing up, the weirdness of change, and that bittersweet feeling of knowing you can never truly go back. Nick Orifici (vocals/guitar) originally wrote the song for another band’s audition, but when they didn’t s reply (their loss), he knew this was a track The Space Turtles had to bring to life. With Andrew Rizzo’s tight, groovy basslines and Adam Kaplan’s pounding drums, “Memory Lane “ transformed into a rock anthem that feels both personal and universal.
Before even hitting streaming platforms, a short Facebook video of “Memory Lane” racked up thousands of views, proving that this track had something special. And when The Space Turtles play it live? Absolute mayhem. It’s the kind of song that demands to be played at full volume, the kind that turns casual listeners into die-hard fans by the time the last chorus hits.
Long Island’s very own indie rock trio is bringing back the not giving a fck* energy that’s been missing from the scene for too long. They’re loud, they’re real, and they’re making music that actually makes you feel something. With “Memory Lane,” they’re proving that rock isn’t just alive—it’s thriving.
So, if you’re ready for a song that’ll take you back, make you sing your lungs out, and remind you why rock music is still king, “Memory Lane” is your next obsession. Crank up the volume, hit repeat, and let The Space Turtles take you for a ride.
