THE LIVING END IS BACK WITH NEW SINGLE “OTHERSIDE” FROM THEIR FORTHCOMING 8th ALBUM WUNDERBAR
RISE RECORDS
The Living End’s eighth album, Wunderbar, isn’t an expansion into electronic sounds, or a step into soft-rock crooning. It’s not needlessly baroque, or needlessly minimal. As lead singer and guitarist Chris Cheney says, “We’re not trying to re-write Dark Side of the Moon or anything.” Instead, Wunderbar does what The Living End do best, what’s kept hundreds of thousands of fans listening for nearly a quarter of a century: straightforward, heart-pounding, guns blazing rock and roll. It’s what The Living End is known for. It’s what they’re good at. It’s what they love. And Wunderbar is their best straightforward, heart-pounding, guns blazing rock and roll album yet. Drummer Andy Strachan insists that keeping the formula simple is the key to The Living End’s success: “We still get off on playing live and giving 100%,” he says, “We still try to write the best songs we can, and we still give a shit! Which is probably why we’re still together.”
