JL / Methods Album Release
WHITEBELTYELLOWTAG – METHODS ALBUM
Methods will blow you away and take you through a journey of grandiose proportions. There isn’t one bad track on this album but then again these aren’t three teenagers who just got into music these are three very experienced and obviously talented musicians.

Ahead of their debut full-length, White Belt Yellow Tagunleash ‘Always and Echoes. It’s reasonably high-tempo and exciting. The track goes straight for the jugular, with a minimal intro; tribal drums and crashing guitar creating a sound fitting somewhere in between Doves and the Bunnymen.

White Belt Yellow Tag have announced details of the release of a new EP, ‘Remains’, out on Monday October 19th 2009 through Distiller Records. Self-produced and mixed by Chris Potter (The Verve, Blur).
‘Remains’ is taken from the band’s recently recorded debut album ‘Methods’, an amazingly far-reaching and beguiling record. The pair’s song-writing nouse and Lockey’s “sonic alchemy” have combined to create something unique where epic wide-screen atmospherics work in harmony with moments of white-noise and fragile beauty.
Methods is due to be released in early 2010, but in the mean time the band will release and tour the incredible ‘Remains EP’ on the following dates:
OCTOBER
6th Cardiff Barfly
7th London Roundhouse Studio
8th Manchester Ruby Lounge
9th Leeds Cockpit
11th York Fibbers
12th Glasgow King Tuts
13th Derby Royal
