Until the End of Time is the third studio album by New Zealand rock band, Opshop.

Background and release[edit]

Jason Kerrison, Opshop's lead singer, said of the title of Until the End of Time "it's more of a romantic notion than a cataclysmic one. Human society has found itself in a time where you've got an unprecedented number of cultures predicting an end time, and you know, is that a sheer fluke."[2]

The album was released on the Rhythmethod label on 2 August 2010.[3]

Critical reception[edit]

Russell Baillie from The New Zealand Herald gave the album five-out-of-five stars, saying that "its sonic sheen and sincerity is just going to reinforce their status as the era's band of the people".[4]

Chart performance[edit]

Until the End of Time debuted on the New Zealand Albums Chart on 9 August 2010 at number one.[5]
