Track By Tracks: PLUTO THE RACER - PLUTO THE RACER (2024)

1. MOLOTOW:

It’s a very short and fast punk song with a melancholic drive and a hardcore-inspired outro. Lyric-wise it’s about having the urge to fulfill your dreams and grow as a human but sometimes feeling like your goals are getting further away with every step you take. It’s about getting ahead and leaving past mistakes behind but turning around once in a while because the journey just seems to get longer and longer.

2. I MIGHT EVEN:

Retro Emo-Pop Punk 90's / This is a story about emotional abuse under the cover of a breakup story. It kind of switches the narratives with the affected speaking through the verses about feeling a strong responsibility for the well-being and even the life of a “friend”, but not knowing what to believe after a series of lies and empty promises.

3.'MERICA:

This is a song about love that is about to fall apart due to geographical circumstances and being unsure how everything is going to work out in the end. Written from the perspective of someone whose partner is about to go on a journey to fulfill personal dreams without really communicating how the outcome of the relationship is going to be.

4.RAILS:

The idea of rails came to me back in 2020 when the pandemic hit and all you had were your four walls. I had a lot of time to think and reflect on who I wanted to be in life, wrote a few lines about it, and put them on a shelf. About 3 years after I found the lyrics in my files and noticed that they still resonated with me so finished them. It’s a song about disorientation and getting caught up in your own expectations.
