Finger Eleven launches social media miniseries for new album

Canadian rock band Finger Eleven has introduced an eight-episode video miniseries on social media, inspired by songs from their seventh album, Last Night On Earth. The series, starting December 18, reimagines tracks as science fiction, fantasy, and adventure short films. It pays homage to classic movies and role-playing games popularized by recent media.

Finger Eleven, one of Canada's best-selling bands, released their seventh studio album, Last Night On Earth, on November 7 through Better Noise Music, marking their debut with the label. To celebrate, the multi-platinum group is gifting fans an eight-episode miniseries that brings album songs to life through short films blending science fiction, fantasy, and adventure elements. Described as campy and centered on the good versus evil theme, the series draws inspiration from 1980s films such as Krull, The Beastmaster, and Flash Gordon, as well as tabletop role-playing games that have gained renewed attention via Netflix's Stranger Things and its Hellfire Club storyline.

The miniseries will debut on the band's social media channels and those of Better Noise Music, beginning December 18. As characters embark on their quest, viewers will hear snippets of tracks from the album. This creative project highlights the band's passion for the genre, transforming music into visual narratives.

Prior to the full album release, Finger Eleven issued four singles: Adrenaline last year, which hit number two on Canada's Active Rock chart and number 20 on the Mediabase Active Rock chart; Blue Sky Mystery on August 1, featuring vocals from Filter's Richard Patrick and securing their 11th Billboard Top 10 radio hit in Canada; the title track Last Night On Earth on September 19; and The Mountain on November 7.

Originally from Burlington, Ontario, and now based in Toronto, Finger Eleven has a storied career with hits like One Thing from their self-titled debut, which went gold in the US and platinum in Canada, and Paralyzer from 2007's Them Vs. You Vs. Me, a five-times platinum international number one. The band has earned Juno Awards and maintained a strong presence in rock radio.

In related news, Finger Eleven is set to tour the US in 2026 with Filter and Local H, starting March 5 in Wenatchee, Washington, while wrapping up a Canadian headlining run with Headstones and The Tea Party in late 2025. They also have UK dates planned for October and November 2026.
