MAKE a date in your 2012 diary to see YOU ME AT SIX, who stormed into the charts at number three with their third album ‘Sinners Never Sleep’ and will release second single ‘Bite My Tongue’ on November 28.
For the band will be at the Westland Centre in Yeovil on March 21 as part of a UK tour.
Produced by Garth Richardson (Biffy Clyro, Rage Against The Machine, Red Hot Chili Peppers) and recorded at the famous Sound Factory studio in Los Angeles, the album sees the band exploring their most mature sound to date, extending their scope wider than ever before. The single, featuring good friend Oli Sykes from Bring Me Horizon, is a dark anthem that showcases the band’s heavier side.
Heavier tracks such as Radio One A-listed lead single ‘Loverboy’ and the new single, merge seamlessly into the hook-infused melodies of ‘Jaws On The Floor’ and ‘Reckless’. ‘No One Does It Better’, ‘Crash’ and ‘When We Were Younger’ sees the band a little quieter and more introspective.
Reinforcing their crossover from underground heroes to mainstream contenders, You Me At Six have also confirmed their biggest headline tour to date. Culminating in London’s Brixton Academy on April 2, the tour sees the band playing big venues in almost all major cities.
