Wunderbar (The Living End album)


Wunderbar is the eighth studio album by Australian punk rock band The Living End, released on 28 September 2018. It was produced by Tobias Kuhn and is the band's first album recorded in Europe.

Composition and recording

In September 2017, the band decided to write and record a new album quickly to push themselves out of their comfort zone. They booked pre-production and recording sessions for January 2018 in Berlin during winter, giving themselves less than four months to write an entire album of new material. Frontman Chris Cheney said: "We had limited time to write, which we were freaked out by at first. But it turned into a good thing because it meant full steam ahead."
Many of the songs on Wunderbar tackle political issues—"Death of the American Dream" concerns social politics and "Not Like the Other Boys" takes on discrimination.
