Palatka (1994-1999) was a hardcore band formed in Gainesville by five students of the University Of Florida who moved there from other areas of the aforementioned state.
They took their name from a city in Putnam County and played a lot of shows in North America together with Twelve Hour Turn, Assholeparade, The End Of The Century Party, Robots Make Mistakes, Cavity and many more; and also managed to play quite a few shows in Europe together with their fellows In/Humanity during their not so consistently booked European Tour in late 1997.
