@teunobeunofeuno the second guitar player is Mike Vennart, he plays on stage and is a member of the band when they tour for backup guitars. He is not a main member of the band during writing, just when playing live :)
Do they play with a baking track? or have a second guitarist hidden somwhere? Just watch the @ 2:25, simon doesnt strum the guitar, but the sound is still there. But still, great performance! MON THE BIF!
@hentz789 They do, he's called Mike Vennart and he used to be the singer and guitarist of my all time favourite band, Oceansize. You should check them out, if you're in to progressive rock.
@hentz789 There is a second guitarist hidden on the far right side behind the bassist. you can see his backup (left handed) guitar in this video behind the singer at 3:02 and you can see the guy in the "mountins live at Wembley" video at 1:21. and indeed, he is a lefty guitar player. LOL ;-) don't know why they had to hide him that much.
biify clyro came to india to open for metallica......and left many biffy fans behind..didn't knw alot about dem but when bubbles started everybody was blown off...powerful stage presence.....RESPECT.
@SmooshyBastard London Symphony Orchestra puts out live recordings made up from 2 performances. Tthey take the the overall best perfomance but combine the 2 when there's a weak bit-its called patching in. It's common practice when a live performance is being recorded for the market .Everyone does it . wtf .If you only like raw live performances pay up and go to 'em.
@Lionshed and what does your comment have to do with mine exactly? i fail to see the connection... and at what point did i mention that i only like raw performances? where are you reading this?
ps. i have "paid up and gone to 'em". dont lecture me.
@SmooshyBastard Sorry mate if I sounded unbearably pompous. I.guess we're both in agreeament really (except for your pig squealing remark about Simon's voice... and castration's a bit severe I'd say).The whole autotune niggling was turning me into Irritataion Incarnate - so interfering with the spirit of the song. Maybe meant it as response for MREAGLEPAUL.....or maybe I should let it go...
@MREAGLEPAUL there's no such thing as "live" autotune in that context. That was done in the studio in post production. You think the album just jumped out of the sound guy's desk after the gig?
The autotune on this pisses me off. The more Simon Neil's vocals are played up to "commercial" standards, the less people will actually appreciate the real character of his voice. Which is how you get idiots at TITP going "THAT GUY CANNAE SINGG". blah blah blah, but still a cool live album.
@ScrapBrainMusic Youtube search "Antares Vocal Producer" and view the Antares AVP-1 Demonstration at the top, try not to lol at the guy demonstrating. I wasn't at the gig so can't comment on whether it was actually used live but it is easily possible, I'm just shocked at how appallingly obvious it is on this track.
@MREAGLEPAUL no no, I'm very aware autotune can be used live, but it's horribly impractical and generally sounds completely daft if you attempt to use it as anything other than an obvious effect. I can practically guarantee to you that Biffy did not, do not and will not use autotune live, ever.
@dddevoy He is just breathing in, trust me. I think most people will agree with me on this one. His chest moves as he is screeching, his veins show he is breathing in, not to mention his mouth moves. Plus, even if it was his fingers against the strings, it would not make that kind of noise. :)
@indeedeez I play guitar... and i have for about 3 years. IF he was grinding his plec against the strings, it would have to be on the bottom 3 strings, E, A, D. Simon clearly has his hand near the other 3 strings, G, B, E. If you grind your plec against the Strings G, B, E. They do not make any noise... Okay? Goodbye.
@mattydalton1 I think a lot of it is to do with the sound quality at open-air music festivals, particularly when there are 10 or so bands playing in a day. I was at Glasto and saw their set, and I've seen them at various other places, and the sound quality didn't do them justice.
This has been taken from the sound desk, where the roadies have time to set up the sound levels properly. And rightly so.
Fucking awesome band, just wish the DVD wasn't over produced, taking away the live feel :(
Biffy, I wish I appreciated you more when you played here in Perth Dec 2010......Believe me, hearing you that night created a love of you, I'd be the most mad passionate fan here in WA if you come back again!!!!
2:28 How is that sound even possible to make? Just more Biffy genius I guess...

Why not put him on the stage as well instead of pretending the band doesn't get any help?

To settle 2 arguments in 1 comment.
1. Autotune was clearly used in post-production, anyone who can't hear this should be castrated.
2. The noise everyone is hearing is clearly just Simon practising his pig-squealing for the new Biffy songs.
