Quiet-Loud-Quiet-Loud-Quiet-Loud Shouty Rock. September 13, 2008

Posted by admin in : Songs , trackback

Well, the description for this one doesn’t get any clearer – no melancholy whatsoever in this one.

Biffy Clyro – crazy name, crazy people. As Wikipedia so perfectly put it, their sound is

a heavy, yet melodic, mixture of guitar, bass and drums, with all three band members contributing to vocals. They are known for complex and interwoven guitar riffs, chord sequences and melodies that often change throughout songs.

Biffy Clyro

I have a love-hate relationship with Biffy Clyro (wow, there’s a phrase I never thought I’d say). Some of their music touches me deeply, and really affects me – their slower songs, their melodic quiet-loud-quiet patterns. Some of their music makes me want to throw all the electronics in my apartment out the window – experimental to the point of torture. But when these guys get it right, boy, do they get it right.

It’s not melancholy. But it’s fun.

Nothing lasts forever, except you and me. (You are my mountain, you are my sea)
Love will last forever, between you and me. (You are my mountain, you are my sea)

I am a mountain, I am the sea, you can’t take that away from me.
I am a mountain, I am the sea.
I am a mountain, I am the sea
