#BiffyClyro #ToysToysToysChokeToysToysToys #VertigoOfBliss - Hudba
For me this song shows everything great about Biffy Clyro
Heavy riffs, to lonely guitars
Screamed and soft vocals
Massive drops after long build ups
Group and sole vocals
Shifting from load to quiet and vice versa
Heavy distortion combined with no distortion
If I could play one song to someone who wanted to know what Biffy Clyro was about, this would be it
Absolutey immense song
This song should have 50 million views
There's no point complaining or saying they sold out. Talented bands eventually reach a point where they can either crossover into the mainstream, make some money, have families, put a bit by for old age etc, or continue being wilfully obscure and eventually fade into the background. Also, once you've done a bunch of quirky post-hardcore albums, writng big, anthemic songs that whole stadiums can sing along to is a new challenge. They could probably knock out another Blackened Skies or Infinityland in their sleep if they wanted to. I'll always prefer this period of Biffy because it's what I grew up with, but it means no more to me than the radio 1 stuff means to people who came along later and there's nothing wrong with that.
chainsawchav totally agree with this.
Tell that to the people in the comments calling them criminally 🙄 underrated.
Yeah people have their tastes. At the same time, it will always be a shame seeing a post hardcore act lose their old sound in favor of more radio play and fame.
This is drenched in his grunge roots. One band alone carrying the torch for grunge lovers around the world Mon the Biffy
"When your live's been shattered, embrace your emotion, I will be right here" 💙
Everytime i hear this i get blown away by the build up part with the feedback on Simon's guitar. I get shivers all over. Clever band.
Anyone who says that Biffy has sold out or is pop, you are all a bunch of wankers living in the past. There is a reason that we are watching videos on youtube, not on a 12 inch analog TV on MTV. Things evolve and get better, just like Biffy Clyro. Respect their old songs, and embrace the awesomeness of their current music. Biffy is and will always be awesome.
I'd agree with that but they're just not awesome anymore. Old Biff > New Biff.
I don't blame em for selling out and cashing in.. they gave us 3 albums of great and very original music. Now they make pop songs for big music industry, accept it. They even make good ones, bubbles and mountains were still good tunes.
LAX1E listen to rearrange and then say that again... Biffys new album is a joke, before that they went softer but still made quality music, the new stuff is shite.
I hear this and then I here wolves of winter and I know that my opinion ìs justified
Sorry if that offends you so much but biffy are shite now
Animal style ain’t a bad tune
My favourite Biffy song, straight from my favourite album. My favourite song of all time, in fact. This is fucking awesome!
I don't think the reason why this video got less views than "Many of Horror" is because more people LIKE "Many of Horror" better, but because not many people know about this song, so us Biffy fans need to help push the older songs from Biffy out into the world.
Love
I heard this song for the first time live 4 nights ago. I had never heard it on record before I saw it performed live. The screaming vocals were just great. This band rocks, and rocks hard. MON THE BIFF!
I hate the fans that say they've sold out and "lost their individualism", let's put it straight the only real thing they've lost is Ben's hair
and shirts too! =)
It’s a shame any time a band wildly changes their sound. Look at BMTH as a more extreme example; their fanbase is always at odds due to how wildly different their new sound is compared to their first 4 records.
Best biffy song by far! Just wish they would still play this live
AMAZING!!! BEST BIFFY SONG!!!!
The last 30 seconds of this
Listening to this for the third time tonight, not obsessed, honest!
#biffyBarras
#awesome great song with a great video!!! thanxs for sharing...
Love this earlier stuff from mon the Biff.
Best song ever!!
Peak Biffy
My hair stands on end listening to the feedback at the end every single time.
Miss the REAL biffy
Best band still alive
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I have been listening to biffy for years but only just decided to invest in their albums and start from the beginning, I have to that I prefer the vertigo of bliss to blackened sky but still this album is fantastic!
Sigh.. awesome as ever
You HAVE to play this on Sat lads, I have been waiting years to hear it live! #BiffyBarras
i just hate it when people say they love biffy clyro because of one song theyve seen on tv on kerrang or something, when its the other songs on the album that are not on tv that are the best
I was listening to this vid while doing something else in another window, and clicked back to the vid at about 4:39 ... and I suddenly realized I was unconsciously making the exact same motion in my room as the entire crowd is doing at that moment
I agree with everything you say there.i dont think they have or will do anything better than this song ever again.I hope the new album comes close to this but dont think it will.
Punk meets Incubus, love it
mate i totally understand know one knows biffy unless you listen to the songs that aint mainstream their songs rock!!
I see what you mean, every time someone says they like Mountains or Golden Rule, and they haven't heard Biffy's earlier raw goodness, i force them to listen to Blackened Sky xD
Gotta love old school biffy Clyro before they sold out and became radio friendly bollocks
true that
Biffy has such an individual sound, but they're not stuck in it. It's so hard to show people their music, cause just one song can't explain who they are as a band AT ALL.
They're playing reading 2013 ;)
Wow, they look like Local H in the footage :') My God I love this song. Particularly the breakdown after the second verse.
whats this? biffy? performing? WITH SHIRTS ON?!?
The apocalypse is here!! D:
Ben's hair wrote all the old music. So yeah.
@Dannypanify Ah yeah man, this song is of epic proportions, no doubt about that. One of the songs that really got me into them.
everything is reminder the sound , simon's hair ... :O
Fekkin perfekktion.
This sounds like how it feels when someone you love pulles a needle out of their arm.
mon the spliff
I had an mp3 of an early longer version of Toys - 6 mins, with a slower intro, and a bit of a looser performance. Seem to have lost it, anyone have it?
I cought Simons shirt when he threw it at a gig i went to!! :P
@DeadFredVideo im the same when ever someone says that mountains and that golden rule is amazing i tell them that they are ok compared to the old stuff which is god like.
HAHAHA IM IN THIS VIDEO that rocks
@Abuckwild I agree.
I only prefer this song to Many of Horror because of when I heard it live
And their shirts...
amense
Is is me or does 'Some Kind Of Wizard' have a similar chord sequence when comparing the 'If even the stars, fall from your eyes, revolve as they burn in the night' to 'no sense makes sense, to me at all'?
@danthemarkerpen i just said the same thing to my brother, about the start of the song
Where did simon get his style for playing guitar?? think he's the only one playing that way. crazy mindblowing shit
What kind of strat does Simon use in this video. No switched and just 2 Pickups?
How is that a bad song at all as well? Whorses is one of the best on that album imo.
But yea, I totally agree with everything else that you are saying =D
that's grand
that's grand
definitely
definitely
Granted their latest stuff has been a bit of a let down but this is the stuff that won over Biffy's die-hard fans x
The B-side version "help me be captain" is much better.
"Fans" like you make me laugh.
@IRAVENZ10 Haha!!
@99sd3763 but does it not annoy you that when you see them live. there are people who just dont know these songs and sometimes the atmosphere falls flat.
Damn Simons guitaRSVP law
And Shirts, they lost their shirts too..
Why would they "re-produce" what they've done before? The band have said they threw everything they could think of into the first 3 albums and left themselves nowhere else to go with it. True Biffy fans will always love that stuff, but I know that if, on album 6, they were reproducing the same type of song over and over, I wouldn't still be buying it. And neither would half the people who are bitching that they've 'sold out'.
:)
@IamLuke92 seriously i mean thats the only way to make good money in music anymore you cant just stay underground forever
well I respect your opinion but you can't say that they do not pull it off for all biffy fans in concerts !
@IRAVENZ10 please tell me your joking
@spudvader86 haha yeah. was having a sarcastic moment. i hate that he ruined a biffy song. no matter what album or song. every biffy song is sacred
@alexmckenzieisabeast What's wrong with many of horror?
damn Simons guitars low...
hey, its that band that covered the matt cardle song
@Drax2912 Would like to vote this comment up one hundred times or more
@philclyro lol. If it wasn't for ur name then I might have been fooled into someone actually believed that. Nice try, better luck next time, please come again
I used to love this rock band. Now their just pop :(
thehewguy they're still rock, stop complaining it's pathetic, they're nowhere near pop OR mainstream.
Josefine Lea Nowhere near mainstream? Well that's just simply wrong.
Ken Shiro I don't live in the UK and in Sweden there are extremly few people who even knows that Biffy Clyro exist so I wouldn't call them mainstream just because i've heard 'Black Chandelier' on the radio about 3 times.
Josefine Lea Just because they're not yet popular in sweden does not make them an underground band. Here in the UK they are very much mainstream. And they make radio rock.
Ken Shiro so what ??? just because a band makes music that can be played on the radio doesn't make them a boring/bad band.ANYTHING can be played on the radio unless it's "too heavy" so argument invalid.You just sound like those douchebag metalheads who claim that everything that's not so fucking metal that it will make little children cry is lame. (plus it's basically only in the UK they are anywhere near mainstream so).
@Mrfedex94 Or maybe they think the song is better in their opinion. How would you know? You should be less narrow minded. That mainstream crap is stupid. If the music's good, it shouldn't matter.
@alexmckenzieisabeast How can you like a band and criticise one of their songs for getting more hits than another? The fact of the matter is that 1,817,687 more people prefer Many Of Horror to this song. They're both good songs, but the majority decided that Many of Horror is better than this - deal with it.
You really shouldn't try to project things that you do onto songs, it just doesn't work...
Man this band really saw post hardcore and grunge and thought “hmm, yeah let’s make it work” and it actually sounds decent lol
