Biffy Clyro are undoubtedly my favourite band ever, some people ave gone off them since they 'sold out' and because famous, but I love them just as much as I did the first time I heard '57', and this new video just serves to reiterate why I love them so.
Worryingly, Simon Neil does look a little bit like an otter during the opening sequence, but I'm thinking it must all be part of the weird fancy dress theme they've got going on.
The whole video is a weird cinematic masterpiece that's themed on pagan rituals and we have a very interesting fact for you to tell all your friends too, whilst Simon was submerged in the swampy lake at the beginning, (that's the otter shot) he was so cold that he didn't realise his wedding ring has slipped off, obviously leaving him utterly devastated and heartbroken. It was all looking like an unhappy ending to the shoot, but luckily divers were brought in a few days later and they were able to recover the ring. One very relieved Mr Neil!!
What do YOU make of it?
