UK AND EUROPEAN HEADLINE TOUR STARTS IN JANUARY

 

       

 

A new chapter in the Biffy Clyro story is rapidly gathering momentum ahead of the September 26th release of their eagerly anticipated new album ‘Futique’. Its first single ‘A Little Love’ is still riding high on the Radio 1 A-list, and has featured at the band’s big festival moments at Glastonbury and Radio 1’s Big Weekend as well as at headline sets at TRNSMT and Eden Sessions. Amplifying that flying start, Biffy Clyro now share the follow-up ‘Hunting Season’ which premiered as Radio 1’s Hottest Record. An accompanying video for ‘Hunting Season’ will follow this Friday.

‘Hunting Season’ erupts in a flurry of ragged, punk-tinged riffs with Simon Neil’s snarled vocals harking back to their early days. Yet there’s a twist in the tale as that aggression gives way to the kind of sublime and super-instant hook that has made them arena and festival-headlining mainstays, before exploding into a hefty, post-hardcore finale.

Simon explains, “‘Hunting Season’ is saying, ‘I don’t know if I can judge myself through the eyes of someone else.’  It's hard enough to know who you are and what matters to you, but if you're worrying too much about how other people are seeing you then you don't stand a chance. I feel like we're all judged so much by people in the outside world who don't know anything about us and that can be really scary.”

That idea of blocking out external influences from social media and remaining true to yourself fits neatly into the broader themes infused in the ‘Futique’ album. Playing on the realisation that our perceptions of memory have shifted during the digital era, it poses an existential thought: what are the things that we cherish now that we will miss in the future?

Available to pre-order HERE, ‘Futique’ was primarily recorded during sessions at Berlin’s hallowed Hansa Studios with producer Jonathan Gilmore, followed by shorter stints in Oxford and London.

Biffy Clyro recently announced a 2026 headline tour in support of ‘Futique’, which features arena dates in the UK and Ireland before heading across Europe.
