After dropping a new single last month, Aussie legends The Living End have detailed their forthcoming new record and an accompanying headline tour in support.

The band’s eighth album, Wunderbar, will drop on September 28 via BMG, with the punk rock trio hitting the road in November with Adelaide powerhouse West Thebarton in support.

Wunderbar is the result of an “inspired” six-week recording session alongside producer Tobias Kuhn in Berlin, with frontman Chris Cheney stating they weren’t trying to “re-write Dark Side Of The Moon or anything”.

Instead, the band will deliver what promises to be one of the most “raw, conscious, and politically vital records of their career”.

Eight albums in and the Melbourne-born punk rockers are showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon, nor have they eased up on guitar-driven, catchy hits, as evident by lead single Don't Lose It, which you can check out below.
