The Living End - Shift (2016)

Shift is an apt title as the band transitions from angry young men to raw, reflective men. Don’t mistake emotion for weakness, though; the amps get a proper workout on “Wire” and “One Step,” showing the fire still rages after two decades. It’s the vulnerability in tracks like “Up the Junction” and “Staring Down the Barrel” that face down personal demons, or “Keep on Running” with its potent message of determination those are the songs you want playing as you near the finish line.
