hi I’m Rebecca Braden and welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re speaking
with Biffy Clyro so if we just have you
introduce yourself tell us what you do
in the band and give us a fun fact about
yourself that not everyone would oh okay
my name is Ben and play drums and Biffy
Clyro and I like to it’s difficult
sometimes when you’re in the middle of
it to kind of observe the evolution but
why don’t you tell us a bit more about
how you think the band has progressed
very good be patient and fairly was
obviously slow we’ve been a band for 16
years now more than half our lives and
you know but only just talking to you
guys know so it’s been a very very slow
progression but but we wouldn’t have it
any other way
if we’d got laws a success rate and we I
think we would have been too young to
deal with it and the music play would
have suffered as a result so the
evolution has been a slow gradual one
and you know hopefully we’ll find a
challenge to become better musicians and
songwriters over the years and we’ve had
a chance to make five three albums which
not many bands get to do these days yeah
I mean we’ve just matured I think I mean
it’s total cliche
we don’t scheme as much noise we used to
and stuff like that and we still have
angular points our music but we’re not
quite as mentally used to be or not
trying to fit like a thousand ideas into
one song no it’s just naturally
progressive things that come with get a
little bit older and wiser hopefully
actually fun fact we have interviewed
with you guys before so so there you go
I read that you described your music as
incorporating some weird shit let’s talk
a bit about Scotland in your homes
I mean how has that come to also affect
the music video I think whether people
later met it or not where you come from
definitely affects and musically that
your band produces it rains a lot in
your genre from people equate doer which
is a Scottish expression for you which
means gonna pessimistic I guess in a way
and you know a lot people say the best
art comes from suffering so I think
maybe the fact that we’ve grown up in a
really you know crappy climate has
helped to for a music universe inspires
you to stay indoors and shine clear
something beautiful because when you
look like say that there isn’t
give us an idea what kind of music was
playing in your house when you were
growing up and kind of how that has come
to influence the music you guys make
James 9:00 p.m. some music ooh my dad
circus artist and it was always music
Orinda house it was I’m definitely a bit
woozy house you know Beatles and all the
things that dire straits and Cody’s
house and generally suffer the strong
melodies what we grew up less than to
know my dad’s a big fan of me only a mum
like Talking Heads so a lot of a lot of
really good bands in my dad was always I
was pushing us to try and get and music
and we all learned guitar I mean James
learned guitar before we learned drums
and bass respectively the only fake came
when I asked for a drum kit because
they’re quite expensive and creating
noise II so I didn’t get a tomcat rate
or we had to pass them for a good few
years and I think I finally got it when
I was 14 or 15 thank you very much thank
you
