Blackened Sky

Biffy Clyro

Angular, math-inflected rock from a young trio. Jagged riffs collide with vulnerable Scottish vocals and explosive, quiet-loud dynamics.

Find on Amazon

It's the sound of a young band figuring out how to turn their anxiety into beautiful, jagged noise.

A restless and vulnerable exploration of inner turmoil expressed through explosive dynamic shifts.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The jarring transition from the delicate opening of Joy.Discovery.Invention into its crashing, desperate chorus.
The intricate, interlocking guitar lines in the middle of 27 that showcase their math-rock roots.
The raw, unpolished vocal strain during the final climax of Scary Mary as the album fades out.
