Biffy Clyro are a fucking ace band! good gig Redgewell? on another note i thought Belarus had split up not long ago? they must be back together or have a new line-up Yeah it was ridiculous. I wasn't a massive fan of Biffy beforehand tbh. I've got a few albums but not overly keen. Thought they were alittle too emo at times. A friend bought me a ticket as an early bday present. They surprised me though. Such a stage presence and tight sound. No emo in sight either. I was expecting all tight jeans and fringes but no. Would definitely see them again. How do you put pics up here. I've got a few if you want to see? yeah i dont think they are very emo at all. they get steriotyped into that catergory really at times. but if you listen to their stuff its nothing like the tripe of Taking Back sunday or someone like that. I have 2 of the albums. the first one (Blackened Sky) and the last one (Infinity Land). i have pre-ordered "Puzzled" as well which is out in a few weeks. yeah if you can put some up that would be ace! you should photobucket them first then get the url for them from there and post them up here. just click on the "img" button at the top when your posting a reply to get the code  |

i always thought they were more of a cleaned-up grunge than emo, but that just goes to show how out of touch i am.
the first few albums are ace, the singles from the new one sound shit if you ask me though?!

I have ordered the new Biffy Clyro album after hearing the current single on MTV2. I did a look up on Youtube and the actual album version has a wicked minute and a half intro!
Apparently the end of 3 of their songs on the album when played together form another song, hence the name 'puzzle'. Seemingly the lead singer's mum died in 2004 so a lot of the album is about how he felt/feels about it, in fact the song folding stars is about her and is supposed to be the next single.

fucking superb album! i love it! most people on here are not Biffy fans but they have taken their sound a step further with this one! if you are looking for a band not as commercial but fucking excellent then they are just that! one of the best British bands around but they are often overlooked with the "Emo" tag :-))(

i've never heard biffy labelled as emo no, because they are not. some people seem to think they are though. the shallow "emo people like them so they must be emo types" :roll: nothing like emo really when you listen to Taking Back Shitday or someone like that |
