Artist Biography

Biffy Clyro are an alternative music trio, hailing from Ayrshire in Scotland. Formed in 1995, Simon Neil, James and Ben Johnston originally went by the name of Screwfish, but later changed to the unique Biffy Clyro for reasons unknown (although many believe it came from a Cliff Richard biro - the "Cliffy Biro").

Biffy have an incredibly devoted fan-base, much praise from their peers, and a reputation for tantalizing live shows.

Their first release came in 1999, with the three-track 'Iname', then in 2000 came the 'thekidswhopoptodaywillrocktomorrow' four-track EP, which was released on the Electric Honey Record label, an Indie label run by students at Stow College, Glasgow.

This EP is very much sought after by fans and collectors alike, fetching £60+ when it appears on certain internet auction sites.

Three albums in three years followed in '02, '03, and '04, with the releases of 'Blackened Sky', 'The Vertigo of Bliss', and 'Infinity Land', respectively, on the Beggars Banquet label (home to Oceansize). Biffy have also released eleven singles on the label since 2000, building a large catalogue of b-sides in a relatively short amount of time.
