@610372 Not arguing or anything but the energy he gives is increadible. To be able to sing pitch perfect aswel would make him more of a god than he is
you do know this is a video and its gonna lag between music and singin obviously hes singin it u can hear simon scream fuck sake cunts think its lipsinking
I agree, smalllibero, but Simon, James and Ben all have amazing voices. They could switch it around and Biffy Clyro would still be, and sound, amazing. Though, it'd be cool if they did that for one song, just to hear Ben, or even James, singing the lead vocals, instead of them singing additional/backing vocals as they usually do.
0:28-0:40 = AMAZING!! That's how it's done!! Not many guitarists play the electric guitar like that anymore. Fuck technique, just play from your heart and rock out!! That's why I love Biffy Clyro.
ok wot actually happens to his guitar? i really wana know cos people have said different things like breaking strings and breaking the bridge. to me it seems like it jst goes out of tune cos iv played my guitar hard before and its jst gone straight of tune.. someone please tell me the truth lol
Seeing them on 20th December in Nerve Centre in Derry. CANNOT WAIT!!! :) <<<<<<<< I live in derry and went to that gig IM IN LOVE WITH THEM and he didnt change guitar he fixed it , the up stroke broke the bridge
Yeah,punxnotdead12345, Simon changes his guitar cos it's out of tune. And if you look closely at the intro, - around 30 seconds into the song - Simon breaks one of the guitar strings because he's playing so aggressively.
oh wow he has a distortesd guitar, ok nirvana are way beind Biffy, lyrically Nirvana are better, but musically they are nothing the same, I hate people who say Biffy Clyro only exist becoase of Nirvana because that just isnt true, their music is far more creative than Nirvana.. Any day learn something about music...
They play it faster live, and switching guitars between songs is normally a better idea then during them. Still, this is one of my all-time favorite songs.
Lip syncing, greg274? Biffy Clyro r 2 good a live band 2 resort to that. And I think it'd really obvious to tell if they were.
The crowd's just singing along, like they do at every Biffy Clyro gig, it wouldn't the same if they didn't. But anyone who has ever seen these guys play live will agree and know that this performance definitely isn't lip synced.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
watch it from 1:35, when it goes into the chorus; hes singin, but hes not on the mike. i promise you there is a prerecoreded track playing behind the live one
it pisses me off how virtually the whole video is of simon. fucking amazing tune though. and he broke the string, he didn't knock it out of tune. you can see the G string fall off if you look closely.
It iis hard to tell if he breaks it, but if you listen on 40 seconds you can here the string out of tune, he must have just put it outta place by going mental! Fantastic performance!!
D3io, I agree with u on that 1st bit. 2 answer ur question, I think Simon just knock the guitar out of tune, but it's hard 2 tell. I wouldn't b surprised if he did snap a string 'cos he's pretty much beating the shit out of the guitar at the beginning, hahaha.
Taht was mental at the start see him go for it that is what kind of enegry live bands should have! does he knock it out of tune or snap a string on his rampage?
The best rock band to ever come out of Scotland. Makes proud to be Scottish. For a 3-piece band, these guys r fucking amazing live. Can't wait 2 see them again in November at the Edinburgh Exchange.
Biffy are something special man, first time i seen them was 5 years ago at T In The Park and they played this and blew my fucking mind. im seeing them for the 5th time this winter! Theyve gone a bit more mainstrean as you can see, and im sure every die hard Biffy fan will agree that albums such as Vertigo Of Bliss are almost unbeatable. Unbelieveable man, you have to see a biffy show.
