The Living End Announce Album Tour

The Living End are backing up the release of The Ending is Just the Beginning Repeating with a national tour.

With the album hitting stores on July 22, we’ll have a couple of months to learn the new tunes before The Living End lads take to the road in September. This tour is really back to basics, with the band shunning the big arenas they could no doubt fill for some of their favourite clubs and small theaters. The tour will kick off with an appearance at a lucky Aussie high school as part of JJJ’s Unearthed High.

General public tickets to the following shows go on sale on July 7, but fans can get a jump on the competition by signing up to the Living End mailing list before midnight June 29. You’ll receive a special code via e-mail for access to the June 30 presale.

2 September 2011 – The Tivoli, Brisbane
3 September 2011 – Enmore Theatre, Sydney
7 September 2011 – ANU Bar, Canberra
8 September 2011 – The Palace, Melbourne
10 September 2011 – Thebarton Theatre, Adelaide

The Living End Release New Single & Album, The Ending is Just the Beginning Repeating

They’ve kept us waiting for a while now, but The Living End are back with a new single and album. “The Ending is Just the Beginning Repeating” is the title track from what’s sure to be another smash album from these Aussie rockers.

The single might just throw fans for a loop though. Rather than the raucous rock they’re famous for, the song sees the band reflecting on the cycle of life and the need to manage grief. Its dark subject matter to be sure, but that change of pace might be just what the doctor ordered. It’s already enjoying high rotation on radio, which no doubt bodes well for the album release.

The album is a result of Chris Cheney’s writing trip to New York City, although the songs were laid down in South Melbourne. Acclaimed American producer Nick DiDia then massaged the tunes to create an album which is already being described as “astonishing.”

You can be the judge when The Ending is Just the Beginning Repeating hits record stores on July 22.
