Methods To End It All is the debut album of Heavy Metal Music band Creation’s Tears who are based in Northern Ireland, with some members based in England. Methods To End It All has been referred to by journalist Malcolm Dome and producer Jens Bogren as belonging to the Gothic metal genre while others have drawn comparisons to Lacuna Coil, Within Temptation, Opeth, Paradise Lost, My Dying Bride and Anathema.
The band's personnel, fronted by singer / guitarist Brian Eddie Reynolds includes former members of established Heavy metal acts; Lee Morris ex Paradise Lost and guest female vocalist Sarah Jezebel Deva ex Cradle Of Filth. Methods To End It All would be the first Heavy Metal Music album to feature Lee Morris since his departure from Paradise Lost in 2004.
In a completely unexpected twist and just days before recording sessions for Methods To End It All commenced, bassist Ian Coulter announced he would be leaving Creation’s Tears to concentrate on his new marriage. Coulter did however play bass on the band's Methods To End It All album.
Recording sessions for Methods To End It All commenced in January 2010. Creation's Tears employed three producers for different attributes of the recording. Ex Kill II This member Mark Mynett recorded the drums with Lee Morris in Huddersfield. Producers, Jens Bogren (Opeth, Katatonia, Soilwork, Amon Amarth) and David Castillo (Inme, Eluveitie, Katatonia) recorded all guitars at the famous Fascination Street Studio in Örebro with vocals and bass recorded at Ghost Ward Studios Stockholm where Katatonia recorded Night Is the New Day.
