Bandleader, Gerre, has also released this track-by-track commentary:
Running On Fumes:\u2028Within the last two years it has happened at several concerts that we ran out of beer for both the audience and the band. That\u2019s of course an insupportable situation that has to be worked off lyrically. Apart from that, one of my favourite songs with a very catchy chorus.\u2028<\/p>\n
A Girl Called Cerveza: Our bass player Frank came up with this brilliant album title during our first stay in South America in December of 2007. I really don\u2019t remember why this track didn\u2019t find its way onto the last album \u2013 we\u2019re all suffering from dementia already. A highly catchy chorus penned by our ex-guitarist Andreas Bulgaropoulos plus kind of an old school-ish verse.Notleast because of the topic obviously the first choice for a video clip!<\/p>\n
Witchhunt 2.0: The first song that we wrote for the new record. A typical TANKARD thrasher that\u2019s also quite contentful on the lyrical side: It\u2019s about cyber mobbing and all the shit happening anonymously on the Internet!<\/p>\n
Masters Of Farces: The first political song on the album. It\u2019s mostly about the marionettes of the populist American tea party movement. Musically, it\u2019s a catchy vigorous thrasher.<\/p>\n
The Metal Lady Boy (feat. Doro Pesch): Absolutely my personal favourite song of the album \u2013 not only because Doro is singing on it. When I visited one of her concerts a while ago and she spotted me in the first row, I had to come onto the stage and join her for \u201aAll We Are\u2019. Later on I asked her backstage in a slightly tipsy condition if she\u2019d like to sing on a TANKARD love song \u2013 and she agreed. This song is based on our first trip to Thailand last summer and offers big hit potential!<\/p>\n
Not One Day Dead (But One Day Mad): This one\u2019s about us being around for 30 years, never giving up and always fighting against the odds \u2013 our own birthday song, so to speak. There have been some changes in the chorus during the recordings in the studio, but yet I believe that it\u2019s a typical timeless TANKARD song that could have also been released 20 years ago!<\/p>\n
Son Of A Fridge: A terrific play on words referring to \u201aSon Of A Bitch\u2019. Very melodic beginning with clean vocals. The song escalates, but nevertheless remains the most melodic track on the album due to the chorus.<\/p>\n
Fandom At Random: Very dragging beginning that later on develops into a true thrash grenade. It\u2019s a critical analysis of a fan\u2019s life.<\/p>\n
Metal Magnolia: When looking at the title one could think the song contained funny lyrics, but in actual fact it\u2019s about the relationship between men and women in general \u2013
almost the second love song on the album with a really speedy and catchy chorus plus wicked effects in the middle of the song!<\/p>\n
Rapid Fire (A Tyrant’s Elegy):\u2028According to the opinion of many people who\u2019ve heard the album so far, this is one of the most sophisticated songs on the record. With its strong chorus it\u2019s absolutely a worthy conclusion of the album with very serious and relevant lyrics: It deals with a dictator oppressing his nation!
A Girl Called Cerveza will be released July 31st via Nuclear Blast. Stay tuned for more information.<\/p>\n
