Last Night on Earth (Digipack Packaging) [CD]

Finger Eleven enthusiastically completed their first new studio album, Last Night On Earth, in a decade. The band has always amalgamated their musical influences from the 1960s forward into their rock mix. They acknowledge that Phil Collins and Genesis were a big melodic influence on Last Night On Earth. And the new tunes explore time-honored Finger Eleven concepts with fresh twists. While "Adrenaline" is a rousing, intense anthem about pushing forward against adversity, "Blue Sky Mystery," featuring Richard Patrick from Filter, is another hard-hitting rocker about being beguiled by something just out of reach. Further into the album, "The Mountain" rides musical peaks and valleys in it's quest to chase the song, about the creative process expressed in a fantasy setting. Then there is the acoustic number "Last Night On Earth," which tackles relationship turmoil. It's the most personal new track for frontman Scott Anderson. Last Night On Earth is set to be released on a digipak CD with booklet insert.
