So where do I start with what some are saying is ‘their best album to date!’ Well confusing is the first thing that comes to mind. ‘Only Revolutions‘ is perplexing, but not in the good sense. For me its still in the middle as to whether or not its absolute genius.

I am a huge Biffy Clyro fan and think their entire back catalogue is something of great intent. It’s powerful emotive driven alternative rock music. It speaks volumes to their many die hard fans and the reason why people call them ‘the peoples’ band. Last album ‘Puzzle’ was such a major accomplishment. Highly emotional and an energy that most bands struggle to match. It was leaps and bounds ahead of anything they had done before. So I was slightly disappointed when I heard ‘Only Revolutions’ for the first time. My mind went into spasm and could not figure out what it was listening to. Was this really the follow up to ‘Puzzle’?

After a year of relative quiet from Scottish rock trio Biffy Clyro following last summers stopgap single ‘Mountains’, Biffy’s new single ‘That Golden Rule’ spearheads their hugely anticipated fifth album, ‘Only Revolutions’, and it doesn’t disappoint.
