MusicFreak810 Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 so I've seen this band's name around all over the place and decided to finally check them out. Listening to their album Puzzle, they're AWESOME! :] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwik-silva Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 I prefer that one to the live one, wee bits of the song remind me of a Fall Out Boy song though The on and on bit really needs screaming and musicfreak please listen to more than just puzzle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicFreak810 Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 The on and on bit really needs screaming and musicfreak please listen to more than just puzzle I probably will once I feel better. I'm really really tired and bleh right now, but once I have some time I definitely will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's cool, but they've turned into a 1 album band over here, when in reality they have 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted November 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2009 Quick Review of Only Revolutions: 1. "The Captain". At first when I heard this, I didn't like it but I do now. It sounds different which is what Biffy are all about, far more different to the other generic crap that's about these days. Although I do prefer "Help me be captain" (b-side to The Captain single) which sounds more like the old Biffy. 8/10 2. "That Golden Rule". Quality song, sounds big and awesome. 9/10 3. "Bubbles". I was looking forward to this when I heard Josh Homme played a guitar solo on it, but the solo itself although very good and very QOTSA sounding imo, isn't very audible. It could have done with being louder, but that's just me. 8/10 4. "God and Satan". Decent. Acoustic-y. I prefer the harder stuff. Sounds very much like the stuff on Puzzle. 6/10 5. "Born on a Horse". Has a QOTSA sound to it circa "Lullabies to Paralyze". It's a bit quirky but I like it. 7.5/10 6. "Mountains". Don't need to say anything here I think. 8/10 7. "Shock Shock". Heavier this one. I love the lyrics on this... "Well you talk, and you talk like you're trying to shock me, I don't even know what the fuck we're still arguing about". 9/10 8. "Many of Horror". A slow one this. 7/10 9. "Boooom, Blast & Ruin". The drums at times remind me of Madina Lake. 6.5/10 10. "Cloud of Stink". Faster paced, good drumming, good guitars/bass and some "whoas" thrown in for good measure. Catchy chorus too. 8/10 11. "Know Your Quarry". Weird intro imo with whatever it is... keyboard? Rest is pretty good. 7/10 12. "Whorses". Typical Biffy song. 7/10 Overall Rating: 7.5/10 - 8/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted November 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2009 From NME Magazine this week, Fan Questions with Biffy Clyro... Where did you get the name Biffy Clyro? And be truthful this time! From @kwik_silva Simon: "OK, I'll tell the truth then! Basically, what happened is that when I was 12, I came out of the shower, I was drying myself in my room, and I stood all over a newspaper, and I got the ink all over my feet. When I went to wipe the ink off the letters on the bottom of my feet spelt out Biffy Clyro" (room explodes with laughter) NME: You spend hours at home thinking these up don't you? Simon: "Yeah, it's great fun!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
