NEW LIVING END ALBUM!

 The Living End repeat their past success with new album The Ending is Just the Beginning Repeating.  The biggest band in the land, THE LIVING END return with the new single, "THE ENDING IS JUST THE BEGINNING REPEATING",  from the album that shares its moniker.  While it’s not what you might expect from a first single, "The Ending is Just the Beginning Repeating" is perhaps the most profound of all the tracks, dealing with the cycle of life and the need to manage one’s grief. The sentiment’s right there in the song: “We’re getting tired of waiting / We’re running into the storm…We’re the start of something much better / We’re the end of what came before”. The single debuted on radio last Friday, with major stations across the country adding the track to high rotation immediately.  Six albums. Each one, a milestone: The time we thought we were indestructible. The time we lit a fire under the establishment. The time we wondered if it was all worth it. No.6, if we put it under the microscope, is the album that hunts down the truth, asks the big questions and demands answers. “The Ending is Just the Beginning Repeating” is The Living End’s most honest album yet.  Chris Cheney, Scott Owen and Andy Strachan have always forged their own path, irrespective of passing fads, haircuts, and any vogue for keytar-wielding debutantes. Their songs require of the listener a social conscience and mosh pit stamina, and give in return a visceral experience that’s flawlessly executed. It’s this attitude that’s earned the band platinum recognitions.  Winding up the tour cycle that followed 2008’s White Noise, Cheney went to New York to buckle down and write, before the songs were jammed out organically in a South Melbourne rehearsal room. Finally the demos were taken to 301 Studios in Byron Bay and Chris’ Red Door Sounds Studio in Collingwood for a reworking with producer Nick DiDia — who has put the Midas touch on records by The Living End-approved Bruce Springsteen and Rage Against the Machine — imported especially for the occasion from Atlanta. Brendan O’Brien (Pearl Jam, Powderfinger, AC/DC) took the reigns as mixer. The results are astonishing.  The Living End’s 6th studio album, “The Ending Is Just The Beginning Repeating” is released on July 22nd, 2011 through Dew Process/UMA.
