Initially a three-piece consisting of brothers Simon Neil (vocals, guitar) and James Johnston (bass, vocals), alongside drummer Ben Johnston, the band has evolved from underground cult heroes into a globally recognised force in alternative rock. Their journey has been marked by a relentless commitment to artistic growth, pushing boundaries with each subsequent album. Early releases like “The Vertigo of Bliss” and “A Rush of Blood to the Head” showcased their raw, energetic sound and intricate songwriting.

The band’s sonic palette continued to expand with the critically acclaimed “Only Revolutions” (2009), which delivered massive hits such as “Mountains” and “Biffy Clyro’s “The Captain.” This era saw them refine their ability to blend visceral intensity with soaring, stadium-ready anthems.
