Frankfurt drunkards have just released the first single off their upcoming new record „R.I.B.“ called „Fooled By Your Guts“.
The song is available here:
iTunes | Google Play | Nuclear Blast MP3 | Amazon MP3
Typical for TANKAD is also the truth story behind the song, like Mastermind Gerre told us:
“A man has been suffering from sudden symptoms of drunkenness. For a long time he has been accused of alcoholism, but then his strange and rare disease was discovered by medics. The man suffers from the so-called self-brewery-syndrome. A form of yeast inside his stomach is feeding on sugar and not only produces carbon dioxide, but also alcohol. A true story, calling for Tankard to use for their lyrics! A real thrasher that will be given the second official video of the new album!”
The band have posted the second part of a series of track-by-track videos!
Let front man Gerre give you further information on the idea behind the songs "Hope Can’t Die" , "No One Hit Wonder" and "Breakfast For Champions":
The first part can be seen here:
