The Hard-Ons have today released “Ride to The Station”, the ripper second single from their forthcoming new album I Like You A Lot Getting Older.
It’s a catchy number that highlights the band’s way with a powerful pop tune, something which remains undiminished since the heady days of “Girl In the Sweater”, “Just Being With You” and “Where Did She Come From””.
“Oh boy this one… It’s so twee i could feel the guys giggle as i was showing it to ’em…” says Blackie. “Thankfully they let me pester ’em with it cause I do love me bubble gum pop. (I betcha it’s secretly everyone’s fave on the album!!)”

The new album I Like You A Lot Getting Older is out October 4, 2024 and available for pre-order now. It will be the third album by the band’s current line-up of Blackie, Murray, Ray and Tim, and follows 2021’s ARIA top 5 debuting I’m Sorry Sir, That Riff’s Been Taken and last year’s the Top 30 debuting Ripper ’23. It will be released on black vinyl and CD and in digital formats, as well as a number of limited coloured vinyl editions – clear vinyl with orange smoke (100 only), clear vinyl with blue smoke (100 only) and clear vinyl with pink smoke (100 only) – and a limited-edition cassette (100 only). An exclusive limited edition green vinyl pressing (250 only, with different color on the cover) will be available via the album’s UK distributor Forte.
The new album’s release will precede the band’s recently announced 40th Anniversary Australian tour (and coincide with their 40th Anniversary European tour), and the premiere of the feature length documentary on the band, The Most Australia Band Ever.
“Ride to The Station” follows the release of the first album’s single and video “Buzz Buzz Buzz”.
