Biffy Clyro ready to start work on new album

Biffy Clyro have revealed that they have already written around 16 songs for their new album.

Frontman Simon Neil told BBC 6 Music that most of the tracks had been written at home over the new year and recording will start after their current tour ends.

The singer spoke about the style of the new material. Neil said: "We're always going to be a rock band, it's always going to be heavy, but hopefully just bring different elements, it's going to sound like Biffy, it's not going to be a reggae record put it that way."

Biffy Clyro's last album 'Only Revolutions' was released in 2009 and nominated for the Mercury Prize. The band have yet to announce details of a release date or title for their new album.

The band will play the Royal Albert Hall on March 23rd, and then support the Foo Fighters at the Milton Keynes Bowl on July 2nd and 3rd. Finally, Biffy Clyro will play at the Sonisphere Festival on the 9th of July.

Biffy Clyro tickets are available now.
