'''Whiteout''', a UK rock group from [[Greenock]], in western [[Scotland]], were active during the 1990s signed to the Silvertone label. Their principal recordings were the LPs "Bite It" and "Big Wow". Their music, influenced by the [[Country Rock]] and [[Glam Rock]] of the early 1970s, is often compared to that of [[the Faces]]. They achieved minor success during the [[Britpop]] era in the UK, sharing the bill with the [[Manchester]] Group [[Oasis]] on their initial tours and making a number of TV appearances aswell as having a significant following in Japan. Although the band split in the late 1990s and were largely forgotten by the music media; their recordings have achieved minor cult status.
