Biffy Clyro - Glitter and Trauma - Camden Barfly 2004

[adamlawtonstanley]

I wish I was there! Didn't even live in London at the time... anyone get to meet them then?

[swopitnow]

@MrNotJoker It's 4/4, then the verses are in 7/4

[biffypaul17]

epic

[biffyburd]

fucking love this song.

[MrNotJoker]

what is the timing for the intro?

[R2J3M]

@MrNotJoker it sounds about 2/4 4/4, then after that 6/8 I think, not sure

[weirdretard23]

@MrNotJoker it's just 4/4 timing mate. simon's just playing like a polyrhythm over it.

[yjc5g3]

It's not down to us to judge whether they're still the same Biffy anyway. It's them Biffy Clyro, it's them who decide which way to go. If you think that they changed, I can just comment that it's probably because that your impression about Biffy's wrong. It's your mind image of them, but not Biffy actually.

[choredavey]

they have such a huge sound for three people! :O

[AlexDJames]

@DamesDolman If i'm honest i think anyone who calls it a mainstream record is a fucking idiot. Lady Gaga is mainstream, Justin Bieber is mainstream. Look 9/ 15ths and tell me it's mainstream . . .

[rodericusher]

@AlexDJames

I agree with you man.

[darrenburns123]

@AlexDJames 9/15ths is one of the best things i have ever heard!!!!

[91Jolene]

its not about them being mainstream.

i dont care how many people are listening to em at all. point is basically that theyre trying hard to be mainstream by publishing the kind of music they do atm. which kinda sucks.

still love em tho :) i just wish id have seen em live a bit earlier, cause theyre only playin puzzles and only revolutions stuff now =/

[darrenburns123]

@91Jolene well u have prob seen , there playing glitter and trauma and jaggy snake more now, 

[Jamiro88]

Damn well put

[ryanthelion234]

how can these "die hard" fans complain biffy have gine mainstream.? doesnt that kinda mean they hear em on the radio for free rather than oay for their records? jeez its as if people are not allowed to make money from music . . .its like say well i used to like david beckham but he now has a pay check and is on tv screw him lol

[FastAsFuk]

theyve gone mainstream because theyve ruhsed all their new music which is reeli shit and not biffy at all.

[semimental1990]

@FastAsFuk first of all only revolutions hasn't been rushed, if anything its been more polished than all the previous albums, which have raw energy. to be fair to biffy some of the songs on OR are more radio friendly, but c'mon they have built up such a big hard core fan base, however that doesn't get them the pay check they deserve. simon may have cut his hair and smartened his dress sense, but live he fucking rocks as hard as ever and it is a far from main stream show.

[completelydisabled]

@ryanthelion234 Nah mate it's not like that at all, it's not about hearing them on the radio and not having to pay for their records. I mean, i'm happy to pay for the records, but the music has changed, that's what people are talking about Biffy becoming mainstream, the new albums are too straightforward, too obvious! There's not one song from Only Revolutions that is as good as a song from the pre-Puzzle era. And that sucks.

[seandrumzmusic]

@completelydisabled i disagree, the odd time signatures, the orchestral side of it, i think they've progressed as musicians, i love their older records as much, but Only Revolutions is still a masterpiece.

[danbanoot]

@seandrumzmusic odd time signatures? the verse of this song is in 7/8

[R2J3M]

@completelydisabled The Captain, booooooooooom blast and ruin, shock shock and whorses are great songs from Only Revolutions.

[Notkooldude]

ahh the days when simon only looked a bit like jesus

[byrnisson]

I wish I had been there. I'm from barcelona... it's really hard to see them here. it really sucks cuz u can only see them at a festival ant they play just for 40 minutes or smth like this.

Mon the Biffy ( want them in BARCELONA!!!)

[mkgvlc3]

a que festival te refieres?? summercase??

MON THE BIFFY!!

[elclembo1000]

i was there... jus sent my neck hairs straight up hearing it again...

[tookashitanddied]

MON THE BIFFY!

[jwillchad]

back in the day when biffy werent all commercial! awesome.

[Timinchains]

Commercial?

jeez...as soon as a band becomes successful and gets anywhere in the music industry, they become to commercial.. give them a break

[jwillchad]

what u mean give em a break?? i aint saying anything bad, they just are pretty commercial now

[ThrivingFire]

I actually agree that. Puzzle is a pretty mainstream record.

[red3chilli]

It got them the recognition they deserved. Look at their new song, that golden rule, they've gone away from the commercial side. They obviously planned it.

[ldu03113]

You're a fool.

[jwillchad]

you smell of cheese

[ldu03113]

Do you want them to make money? Since this is their job you know.

[hdmackay]

Mon The Biffy!

[graeme6630]

Better than the version on the Infinity Land album. You can't beat that bit at the beginning with everybody singng along before the distortion kicks in. Just amazing, magical even!!

[FlyingVChaz]

Mon The Biffy.

[ThrivingFire]

This could be the longest 'Mon the Biffy' comment board ever xD

Mon the Biffy!

[denzo22]

Fuck Hendrix, Clapton or Malmsteen - Simon makes me wanna go out and buy a Fender and cut into it likes he does. But then again I never could like him, who the fuck can?

[bushuaaaa]
