Since their 2006 release of Dreams, the Berlin-based disco-twittlers of The Whitest Boy Alive have really touched the world. With 120 shows from Europe to Mexico and even Down Under, it isn't hard to see that the group and fans alike should have some added excitement with the March release of Rules.
Erlend Øye (vocals/guitar), Sebastian Maschat (drums), Marcin Öz (bass) and Daniel Nentwig (synth) compiled and recorded their newest effort at Glass Cube Recording Studio in Mexico before heading back to Berlin's Funkhaus where adjustments to tracks took place. This past Fall the album went into the final mixing stage at Villa Qrella in Berlin with the help of Norman Nietzsche, just as was done with Dreams.
Tracklistings are below for Rules and tour dates for Europe are expected for April, although any fan knows that tour dates sometimes become a bit of a challenge to find. Any extra help on this matter, please comment. The song "Island" from the album can be found on their MySpace page.
