Biffy Clyro Are Working On Two New Albums

At least one will drop this year...

Biffy Clyro are working on not one, but two new albums.

The band took time off after 2016's mammoth 'Ellipsis', but recently hinted at getting back into the studio.

Well, the Scottish outfit have a surprise up their sleeves – not only are they working on new material but fans can expect two album projects.

Frontman Simon Neil told Kerrang! that they want to keep busy. “We’re working on two records!” he said. “One is for a movie directed by Jamie Adams, based around the songs on an album we’re making.”

“Unfortunately, timing-wise this has impacted our ‘Ellipsis’ companion record, because there aren’t enough days in the year! The film will be named after the record and will share some dialogue and lyrics. The record will influence the film and then feed back to the music. It’s an unusual way to make a record, and that’s why I’m buzzing about it – it’s a different way to feel inspired.” He added: “It will be out later in 2018, and then it’ll be Biffy opus eight!”

So: watch this space.
