Scotland's Biffy Clyro have been making anthemic arena rock together for more than 20 years. Comprising Simon Neil (guitar, lead vocals), James Johnston (bass, vocals) and Ben Johnston (drums, vocals), Biffy Clyro have entertained fans the world over with their winning combination of grunge, pop and progressive rock.
Originally formed in the late '90s in Glasgow, Biffy Clyro began as a club band, largely influenced by pop-rock forbearers Weezer. After growing a local following, the trio released their first EP, 2000's Thekidswhopoptodaywillrocktomorrow. Their first single, "27," was released not long after, and in 2002, they released their studio debut album, Blackened Sky.
In 2003, the band shared a follow-up effort, The Vertigo of Bliss, and toured aggressively to build momentum. In 2004, Biffy Clyro released their third album, Infinity Land, and three years later, they shared the single "Saturday Superhouse" and news of a fourth album: Puzzle.
In 2009, Biffy Clyro released their fifth studio album, Only Revolutions, which featured singles like "Mountains," "Bubbles" and "Many of Horror." Only Revolutions went platinum in 2010 and even earned the band a prestigious Mercury Prize nomination.
In 2012, Biffy Clyro announced their sixth studio album, Opposites, which was released in 2013 and featured the single "Black Chandelier." Opposites debuted at the top of the charts, marking their first-ever No. 1 on the Official UK Album Chart. That year, the trio embarked on their second-ever world tour.
In 2016, Biffy Clyro returned with their seventh studio album, Ellipsis, which they recorded in Los Angeles with producer Rich Costey. The album featured the singles "Wolves if Winter" and "Animal Style." To promote the album, Biffy Clyro headlined a number of major festivals, including the Reading and Leeds Festivalsl in 2016 and the Download Festival in 2017. That same year also saw the release of Biffy Clyro's unplugged live album recorded at London's Roundhouse.
In 2019, the band branched out somewhat by soundtracking Jamie Adams' film Balance, Not Symmetry. The following year, Biffy Clyro released a new full-length, A Celebration of Endings, which was also produced by Costey. They circled back one year later with a companion album, The Myth of Happily Ever After. Catch Biffy Clyro on tour when they hit a city near you.
