Palookaville is an album by Fatboy Slim, released in autumn 2004. It was also a temporary name of Brighton and Hove Albion F.C.'s Withdean Stadium, due to their sponsorship deal with Skint Records.
The album, being the first Fatboy Slim album released in four years, represented a significant shift in style for Cook, with a reduction in the traditional Fatboy Slim reliance on vocal loops, and the introduction of real instruments (Cook himself returns to his Housemartins roots by contributing live bass on some tracks, with engineer/mixer/executive producer Simon Thornton also adding guitar) and more conventional song structures. More "traditional" Fatboy Slim tracks such as "Jin Go Lo Ba" co-exist with full-length vocal tracks such as a rendition of the Steve Miller Band's "The Joker". There are also many more vocal collaborations, including with the rapper Lateef and Brighton-based band Johnny Quality.
