Powder Chutes New Single “Straights”

New Zealand rockers Powder Chutes are back with their latest single, Straights, a high-energy track that races along with wild intensity. Released on October 18th, the song is part of their upcoming debut album and is already causing a stir, especially during their recent national tour. It’s been described as “Bliss on speed”, blending sharp commentary on binge drinking culture with the vibe of a party anthem.

The track walks the fine line between being thought-provoking and purely fun, depending on how listeners choose to interpret it. Whether you’re here for the deeper meaning or just want to rock out, Straights delivers. The song’s raucous energy even carries over into its live performances, where it’s becoming a crowd favorite.

Critics have praised the band’s confidence and raw power on stage, with Lisa Jones of MuzikNet.NZ noting how the band’s performance in Hamilton left a lasting impression, and Classic Rock Magazine calling them “a rock band with a capital ‘R.’” With a sound described as a modern mix of grunge, punk, and hard rock, Powder Chutes are drawing comparisons to acts like Tool and Highly Suspect​.
