High-energy rock’n’roll royalty, **THE HELLACOPTERS**, are pleased to present a brand new single from their much anticipated new studio album ***Overdriver ***today.

‘**(I Don’t Wanna Be) Just A Memory**‘ sees the band take on the (post)modern preoccupation with nostalgia.

Forgoing influences like the **MC5** or **KISS**, ‘**(I Don’t Wanna Be) Just A Memory**‘ nods more to powerpop pioneers **THE WHO**, **THE RASPBERRIES**, or even **BADFINGER** with its major/minor shifts, offering up hidden harmonic treasures while still beating to the ‘Copters’ signature driving pulse.

Like past favourites ‘**No Song Unheard**‘ or ‘**Carry Me Home**‘, ‘**(I Don’t Wanna Be) Just A Memory**‘ reminds us of the band’s unique capacity to temper their furious paced action rock with a songwriting sensibility that transcends their genre.

**Play it loud!**

Of course there’s also an audio-visual treat in the form of a brand new music video for the track by director Emil Klinta, which includes behind-the-scenes footage from the recording sessions. You can watch it below.
