Finger Eleven has announced that in support of the bands latest album ‘Last Night On Earth’, which dropped last month, the group is bringing various songs from the album to life with an eight-episode video miniseries, which will appear on their social media.

The band will also be hitting the road in early 2026 alongside Filter and Local H. The dates can be found below.

The shows will reimagine songs from the album into real life as science/fantasy/adventure short films in an homage to the band’s favorite genre (such as Krull, The Beastmaster, and Flash Gordon). They’re huge fans of those particular movies, as well as the popular tabletop role player games that have arrived back in the spotlight thanks to the popularity of the Netflix series “Stranger Things” and the “Hellfire Club.” The “Last Night On Earth” miniseries—deliciously campy and steeped in the Good vs. Evil trope—will roll out on the band’s and Better Noise Music’s socials starting today (December 10). Throughout the miniseries, as the characters endure their quest, viewers will hear clips of new songs from LAST NIGHT ON EARTH.
