What this is
The Living End are a high-octane Australian punk-rock trio known for blending rockabilly, punk, and hard rock into an explosive live experience. Formed in Melbourne in the early 1990s, the band rose to international prominence with their 1998 self-titled debut album and have remained one of Australia's most beloved rock exports for nearly three decades. Their 'I Only Trust Rock n Roll' Japan Tour 2026 brings their ferocious live show to select Japanese cities in July 2026, offering fans a rare chance to see the band in intimate club settings. With frontman Chris Cheney's blistering guitar work and the band's reputation for relentless energy on stage, this is a genuine event for rock fans in Japan.

International visitors and expats with a taste for live rock will feel right at home in the energetic, passionate crowd. Arrive early to secure a good spot on the floor, as standing shows at Club Quattro fill up quickly.
Good to know
