This form is now expired. Thank you to all those who have submitted files.

Following the release of their brand new Number 1 album, “Ellipsis” out now, Biffy Clyro have announced a headline show at Dublin’s 3Arena ‪on Saturday, November 26^th. Tickets from €46.50 go on sale Friday the 22nd at 9am and we have an exclusive pair to give away.

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).

Such themes are also apparent in the album’s visceral first single ‘Wolves of Winter’ which captures Biffy Clyro’s famous blend of angular riffs, pummelling rhythms and strident hooks. Says Neil: “’Wolves of Winter’ is about us being wolves on a patch and if you come onto that patch, we’ll tear you limb-from-limb.”
