Biffy Clyro - Lonely Revolutions

[samhuntification]

i cant find the lonley revolutions album anywhere, really pissing me off cos its better than only revolutions, reminds me of older biffy

[KeptYouGuessing]

Don't piss on my back and tell me it's rainin'!

Fuckin' yes!

[MIZscotlandx]

Mon the biffy!!!!! x

[tvrulesnation]

Its real blink-182 who i despise, but the time signatures & drumming & buildup are fucking ace in the song so i really ain't complaining.

[bobotohough]

@tvrulesnation it's nothing like Blink 182, for a start the singer is sining in a Scottish accent and it's not about bumholes like Blink sing about.

If you think this sounds like Blink, you are musically inept or on acid.

[TheTvrulesthenation]

@bobotohough

Or the song is pop-punk the same genre that Blinks music mainly is & Simons voice has always had a reminiscint hint of pop-punk singers when he's not screaming. Lyrics & themes have little classification of what genre a song is.

No i'm not on acid (at the time of that writing) & i most certainly am not musically inept

[bobotohough]

@TheTvrulesthenation Well you evidently are, as this is a completely different structure and chord progressions than Blink have used. Lyrics and themes have a big part to play in the genre of music, just as much as what you think is pop-punk or not. Genre is all opinion based.

[TheTvrulesthenation]

@bobotohough

Right so if you're going to toss around such terms, explain then. I've heard egotistical music fans throw out terms like ''chord progressions & structure'' etc without the slightest clue of what it means or how its related to the music in question.

Genre is not entirely opinion based, there are distinctions that allow certain genres to be the main of a song & often many in one song. (eg nobodys going to say Claptons music isn't some form of blues)

Lyrics don't denote genre, how?

[bobotohough]

@TheTvrulesthenation

A majority of Blinks chord progression follow similar to the typical "punk" progression which is 4/4, quaver phrases of I V VI IV also a majority of Blinks stuff follows a intro, verse, chorus, middle8, verse, chorus (typical song form). You can draw comparabilities to Blinks music from this and you can to anything but I defy you to say 'It's too Blink 182' where it's everything Blink's music isn't; Innovative and Different. Lyrics have huge part to play, e.g. blues?

[bloodacea]

awwww, it sounds sooooooo cuteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

[darrenburns123]

this is biffy , random lyrics love them!! well random to me lmao

[Fridayplaylist]

petty the title track didn't make the album!

[nawmoses]

i used to like this band, this is a reason as to why i don't anymore.

[manicmacintosh]

@nawmoses Wow, you're soooo edgy!

[idalindberg1992]

@nawmoses Why is this song the reason you don't like Biffy anymore? What's wrong with it, don't you like the lyrics or the tune? Go make an appointment with your doctor, would you please. ;)

[darrenburns123]

@nawmoses u never liked the band then, dipshit,

[NiiraliiPatel]

@nawmoses WHAT?! i dont get why this could make you not like them

[petebry]

without you i am lonely revolutions of love

[petebry]

without you i am lonely revolutions of love!

[TheNeutralFan]

I'm fairly certain that Lonely Revolutions is the B-sides album from Only Revolutions. Like, all the B-sides from the singles bundled together, so it's sort of like an EP but longer.

[eeekhoorn]

@TheNeutralFan No it's not, it's a song from the Many of Horror EP.

[TheNeutralFan]

@eeekhoorn Well, Lonely Revolutions is also the name of the B-sides album. It's the name of this B-side (which IS from the Many of Horror single), and the album. What's kinda confusing is that the song is also on the Lonely Revolutions EP (wrong term, 'cos it's longer than that, but you know what I mean).

[eeekhoorn]

@TheNeutralFan Could be

[TheNeutralFan]

@eeekhoorn What I'm trying to say is that we're both right.

[eeekhoorn]

@TheNeutralFan Yeah I know.

[TheNeutralFan]

And who says Biffy have changed? Bloody classic. Okay, minus the insane Infinity Land-style screaming. But still.

[MrSilvestro69]

good song man fed up with pretend biffy fans :$(n)

[kenny72ification]

[somekindatube]

totally didn't realise what he was saying in the "don't piss on my back" bit until now. is it bad that it's improved my opinion of the song?

[N311Steam]

@somekindatube its a sayin in scotland, if ur scottish u shoulda heared it by now lol "Don't piss on my back and tell me its raining"

[somekindatube]
