OFF THE BEATEN TRACK

This track should be understood as a stretched out middle finger towards those, who label the band as a clone of the genre’s big players. Not only lyrically they point out that HARDBONE follows their own way but in particular instrumentally this song shows the band’s originality. This kind of song would have never been written by related colleagues and shows them which side the bread is buttered on.

Lyrics

We’ve heard it all before and we’ll hear it all again,
Nothing is new, same old brew, just tried and true.
I can’t stand it anymore, so we’ll push the pedal down
No rock n roll stars, just loud guitars, that’s all we are

Just a good old kick in the nuts, baby!

We’ve come a long way
Running off the beaten track
Ain’t no changes, come what may
Running off the beaten track

Same old same old every day, they say rock ‘n’ roll is dead
The good ones gone, nobody carries on, no break of dawn
No kid stuff, no chimes, it’s pedal-to-the-metal time
No rock n roll stars, just loud guitars, that’s all we are

You just gotta feel it in your guts, baby!
