Biffy Clyro - Ellipsis

Review by Luke Beardsworth

Takes the formula they used in the latter part of their career and refines it with shades of the quirks and weirdness of their early days»

Biffy Clyro follow 2013's critically acclaimed number 1 double-album 'Opposites' with their seventh studio album 'Ellipsis'. As is tradition, writing sessions for the album saw Biffy Clyro - Simon Neil (vocals / guitar) and the Johnston brothers James (bass) and Ben (drums) working in the intimate environment of their practice room. They then headed to Los Angeles for recording sessions with producer Rich Costey (Muse, My Chemical Romance, Sigur Ros). Citing influences as diverse as Tears For Fears' 'Songs From The Big Chair' album, DJ Arca and Deafheaven, Simon Neil has described 'Ellipsis' as "more of a punch to the nose than a big cuddle." Lyrically, the album's songs tackle personal issues with the idea of "fighting back" a recurring theme.
