Based on seeing 'em 7 times in small clubs this year the following is so very true:
"Proof that puzzle is about 100 times better live. Stripped down without the pop production and other instruments. It'll be the same with "Only Revolutions". If only they recorded it live!"
Will someone PLEASE Tab this (motherfucker of a) song for me for guitar?!? I can't work out the clean bits correctly, they're difficult the way that I've figured out to play them, there's gotta be an easier way!
And there ain't much tabs on this on the net at the moment, just the same one on many website which tabs the clean bits incorrectly!
You could do that for the distorted guitar bits, but it's not that easy for the clean arpeggio bits in the chorus and the pre-chorus, as I mentioned.
Anyways, no matter that much now. I managed to find a website which let me read a page from the tab book for the Puzzle album, and in there, I found that the guitar is meant to be in a weird tuning. Drop-D tuning + G tuned down to F#. That tiny little difference makes a HUGE difference to it's difficulty!
Proof that puzzle is about 100 times better live. Stripped down without the pop production and other instruments. It'll be the same with "Only Revolutions". If only they recorded it live!
@mjwoodworth This song is unreal, but you can't say that Machines isn't a stunning tune. In fairness, you can't say anything they release is bad - his writing's unreal...
@mjwoodworth hey man, machines is beatufiful,and has neato lyrics. Whats awesome bout biffy, is that theyre slow and chill songs still have that "Biffy Clyro" factor in them. Machines should be noticed, its an awesome song, just as this. i agree this stuff should be agreed more, but the ones who ONLY notice moutnains and machines istn as much biffy fans that they would like this
@mjwoodworth ....Are you daft? Its the same band mate. Machines and 57. My favorite songs. Both from different albums. I know your trying to be all cool and that by saying OH YEAH. I KNEW BIFFY SING FUCKIN 05. Yeah man.. A LOT of people did. So STFU about whats better that what and just fucking enjoy the fucking music.
this is one of my favorite Biffy songs...just so powerful...and what makes me like the band more is that they can play any of there songs perfectly live
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Haha, The 'get fucked stud' at 2:51 is aweful. I think thats the only time I've ever heard Simon Neil sing somerthing that badly haha. Just to clarify, biffy are my favourite band. Anyone who -'s this comment is an idiot cos those couple of notes are blatently off :D
...............it's not off at all lol Ok maybe the "fucked" sounds a tiny tiny bit different to the studio recording, but jeeze man. Talk about picky.
Totally with you, XxDariax. Biffy Clyro are amazing live. I'm going to see them during their Dec 2008 UK/Ireland Tour as well. But I'm going to see them at the Glasgow SECC on Dec 20th. But it'll be a great gig at Brixton as well because these guys never fail to give amazing performances everytime.
Wow, it's quite rare for MTV (even if it is MTV2) to have the guts to air the word 'cunt'. Especially considering their similar coverage of SOAD, censoring allsorts in Psycho (such as 'cocaine' and 'ho').
Im a huge fan of these guys and noticed that there wasnt any forums online for biffy clyro, so I decide to make one for all us biffy fans so we can talk about the band and what not!
Wish I were a DJ on american radio. Would play this song and dare the sodded FCC to object ;o)
Besides being a great song, it should be released as a single. our new rock station has a shit playlist though....haven't heard them play a Biffy song yet. tossers...and they wonder why we're all listening to our ipods an that.
the screaming makes puzzle songs good. and he really really can do it. a hell of a lot better than the metal pricks who 'growl.' hes actually screaming for once. oh, and listen to the first 3 albums. the way he screams is their style of music. idiot.
New record is very good but not as special as first two, just hope now they are big time as they should be they will step back a bit like radiohead did after the bends..LOVE BIFFY
i dunno why, but the singers accent seems to be more audible on the songs from puzzle. it doesnt bother me or anything, just something iv been noticing. great tune, btw.
...I really like how they seems to be playing the new stuff pretty heavy, with screams and stuff at their live shows. It's nice to see they're still the same band as their earlier stuff. ~que abuse...
wabs05, shut your fucking noise. People like you are so predictable. You worship a band until they make an album that appeals to the mainstream and suddenly they are not that great underground band that those who listen to Radio 1 have never heard of.
actually im not like that, i love a lot of mainstream music like muse and incubus. The fact is the songs are so less experimental than the material on previous albums. Songs like Asexual meat kitchen are really cool but they didn't make the cut. Its obvious why.
selling out, thats what it is 'matey', the change of record deals messed them up. They had an album already written before the change of record company but they scrapped the songs because the record deal said they wern't mainstream enough. Learn your facts.
To be honest. If I was you, I'd research a little more before getting cocky on youtube of all places, have a little look up and down the comments on the biffy vids and forums to see what the fans think of puzzle, if the majority think they are 'sell outs' and their album is 'poor'. I'll drop to my knees. But until then. Fuck off.
What you have just said is preety stupid. Look at the majority of fans? of course they are going to like it you moron, its more mainstream! Maybe sell outs is a bit harsh, but they deffinately have lost their unusual character in their sound and if you can't agree than fair enuf. Although i think living is a problem is a tune.
