The Living End to Release New Album and Embark on National Capital City Tour
Legendary Australian punk-rock band, The Living End, is back with a bang after an eight-year hiatus with their explosive new album titled ‘I Only Trust Rock n Roll’, set for release on September 26th via BMG. The album features eleven new tracks that showcase the band’s raw energy and unapologetic spirit, with the title track already making waves. To celebrate this momentous return, The Living End is hitting the road on a National Capital City Tour that promises to be a wild ride for fans.
The band found inspiration for their new album in the turbulent events of recent times, with frontman Chris Cheney drawing motivation from the George Floyd murder, subsequent riots, and the ongoing pandemic. Known for their powerful, no-nonsense approach to music, The Living End delivers a punchy and politically charged album that stays true to their roots.
The album kicks off with the hard-hitting track ‘Alfie’, setting the tone for what’s to come. Songs like ‘Roller’ and ‘Strange Place’ capture the essence of the band’s classic hits like ‘Prisoner of Society’, while tracks like ‘Private Hell’ and ‘Camera’ delve into deeper themes of personal struggles and societal issues. The band’s intention with this record was clear – to create a sleek and focused sound that cuts through the noise without unnecessary frills.
When it comes to live performances, The Living End is known for their electrifying shows that leave audiences craving more. With the National Capital City Tour, the band plans to deliver two powerhouse sets each night. The first set will feature tracks from their new album, including the title track ‘I Only Trust Rock n Roll’, alongside their classic hits like ‘White Noise’ and ‘Roll On’. The second set will be a trip down memory lane as the band performs their iconic, multi-platinum debut album in its entirety, bringing back fan favorites like ‘All Torn Down’ and ‘Second Solution’.
