Biffy Clyro

The lads put on such a great show and were so connected to the audience! The Fillmore is such an amazing place to see a band because you can get so close to the stage. Lots of energy, we had this "thing"! Come back to SF soon!!!!

This was the second time I have seen them, and they are truly amazing!! Love how the stage in this venue was lower so you felt like you are part of it all :)

I had seen Biffy Clyro twice previously as an opening act and was so excited to see them headline for the first time. They did not disappoint! I brought my wife along and she has become a devoted fan. The intensity of the live show, the intricacy of their music, the whole crowd singing a long to every word, the sheer volume of their sound, everything was incredible! Great setlist. Great sound.

This band is going to be huge in the US; already are in the UK. They put on a tight, loud, energetic live set and are approachable by the fans. Smart, emotional lyrics and brilliant riffs and arrangements make them one of the best in a LONG time. Do not hesitate to go see this band if you liked the early 90s Seattle sound! I'm talking Mudhoney, early Soundgarden, Skinyard, etc.

I'm a sucker for blind buy concert tickets, but I had been listening to their latest album a bit after finding their name on the list of bands coming to The Basement. First off, at 98 minutes, this is the longest show I have ever been to at that venue. It was hot, it was sweaty, and it was all I could do to keep my place by the sound booth. However, as stated, these guys put on a solid show and sound just as good if not better than they do on CD. They played the whole Only Revolutions album sans one song (Cloud of Stink) which was just incredible. Even though they are playing a "standard" setlist on each stop this tour, it's worth it just to see them perform live even if you've heard a recording of their set. Simon has some wicked sweat flying when he head bangs.

So there was a bad snowstorm this day, and the opening band cancelled but Biffy found a way to get there. The show was at 7th St. Entry, and if you arent familiar, it is tiny, the maximum capacity being 250. I know Biffy Clyro is used to playing Wembley and such...but they were just as mind blowing and appeared to have just as good a time playing here. Simon thrashed about as much as the stage allowed, and the band played for about two hours, playing mostly tracks from Only Revolutions but taking something (I believe) from each album. The harmonies were fantastic, as was the rest of their playing in general.

Extremely lively concert..these boys are the hardest playing band in Europe.

awesome show, i love the basement. biffy clyro was so much better than i ever could have expected. that guy can play guitar! everything sounded great. you could see well from pretty much anywhere. of course you get the typical drunk idiots shoving for no reason.... it's a rock show. when they come back, i will be there!

Never really had time to make it to a concert but I like these guys a lot so this was my first concert. Had a good time. "That Golden Rule" made the night. Would pay to see it again!

The basement was a horrible choice for a band this big. But Biffy killed it as usual. They are damn near flawless in their playing and sounded great!!

Biffy Clyro was the best concert I have seen in a small venue. They had an amazing set list and sounded just as good live as their CD. I feel like they will be very big in the US soon and will play stadiums rather than small venues so I feel lucky to have seen them at about 50 ft. away.

Saw Biffy Clyro at the Basement in Columbus, Ohio on February 18, 2011 and it was amazing! They came out shirt-less and started playing The Captain full-force and maintained a high energy throughout the show. The main set ended with Many of Horror and they came back out for an encore of Glitter and Trauma, Justboy, and the finale of Mountains. The lead singer, Simon Neil, played 2 songs acoustic by himself and it was awesome except for the fact people seemed to enjoy talking loudly rather than listen to the concert so it was hard to hear him singing over their talking. They sang and played the songs true to the album, without much deviation, except for some hardcore rocking on the guitars. They are a fun band to watch jam on their instruments. Overall, an awesome show that I would recommend to any Biffy Clyro fan.

Biffy Clyro put on a great show, but I'm writing this review to hopefully spread the word about Moving Mountains. These relative newcomers to the scene rocked so hard, I was surprised. I'm going to catch them whenever they're in town. Look foward to their new record coming out in the next few months on Triple Crown.

The show was incredible. Biffy have so much talent and for three guys to create such a full sound was mind blowing. My Mum taught the boys music at school so she was chuffed when I told her how great it was. And what a venue. They sell out arenas in the UK so it was wonderful to see them in the intimate Gramercy Theatre.

Amazing show. Very talented musicians and performers.

High energy show, great songs and lyrics, the complete package. We saw them last spring in Seattle at the Showbox and they tore the house down! Their last swing through the area was in San Francisco at the Rickshaw Stop so we went there from Bonney Lake to kick it with them. Had a fantastic time, they did a great show even though James was sick. Me and my friends will definately be at the Crock to dance and sing our asses off. MON THE BIFFY!!!!

i went to see biffy clyro in blackpool it was my second gig ever and it was rockin good the sound was brilliant everything was just really good i would really reccomend biffy clyro !!!!!

The guys put so much energy into the show. The timing and sound was totally in sync. Must see band.

This is the third time I've seen Biffy Clyro live, each time at a different venue. No matter what venue, the performance is always lively and fun. The lighting was exciting and perfectly suited the music, and the sound was well-balanced.

An amazing show! Definitely unforgettable. The music was great and the venue had tremendous character. Would definitely come back for another show there, and will try to see Biffy play in the future. Been listening to them for years and it was amazing to see them live!

This band never ceases to amaze me. Their live show is so different than their albums. Pure energy and musical intricacy. I have seen of 500 shows, and Biffy is top 10. And Neptune is always good acoustically as long as you are not under the balcony. Great time!

Biffy were their usual energetic and raucous selves. Shame they didn't play one song from Blackened Sky though.

Biffy is the best and played a great mix of all their albums. The venue doesn't allow crowd surfing or much movement of any kind and wouldn't even let the man in front of us have his little girl on his shoulders! Other than the bummer security and good night and great show.

I can't believe I got to see a band like this in such a small venue. They are hands down one of the best live acts I have ever seen. I was a fan before and now am an even bigger fan after seeing them live. If they are in town, see them. Impossible to be disappointed.

Awesome show! Simon and the boys rocked the house for sure. Lots of energy and really tight performance both vocally and sound wise. I wish they came to the U.S. more often.

Biffy Clyro is an amazing band. They played their hearts out, even at a relatively small venue. They're extremely talented and expert showmen. Go see them if you have the chance!

I can't believe this band is not hugely popular in the US. They came out and played a blistering 20-song set, all the while interacting with the crowd of several hundred. This was a special treat for Biffy Clyro fans, considering the magnitude of their headlining shows in Europe. I would highly recommend anyone seeing them play, at any opportunity. The A&R Music Bar is a really cool venue to catch a show, and featured some of the best pizza I've ever eaten. I look forward to seeing more bands perform there.

Not much to say, except it was one of the best shows I've ever been to!

Had a wonderful time. Biffy Clyro was a very entertaining band and most of the audience was going crazy. So much fun! Morning Parade was excellent as well.

Drove 3 hours from Pittsburgh to see them for the first time and if I were 5 years younger, I would've gone to see them in Philly as well. They played this tiny club with the same passion and energy as if they were playing a huge festival crowd. Love the band and certain songs even more after seeing this show. It's all I've been thinking about since. Thanks Biffy and hope to see you again soon.

The whole show was definitely come of the greatest I've been to! I never heard of Morning Parade before, but I'll definitely be getting into them now! Biffy Clyro was even better than I could've expected! I had the greatest time and can't wait until they return to the area!

High energy, decent sound, interesting crowd, enjoyable show!

Great show. I liked that they play their harder stuff at small venues. They were great!

Brighton Music Hall was an incredible small place which gave you the opportunity to be as close to the band as possible. The performance of the musicians was unforgettable and we really enjoyed ourselves!

Biffy is awesome. Their live performance is unbelievably good. You might have seen them guest performing for others, but their own show has much more characters! Thanks Simon, James and Ben!

We went to see the warm up Morning Parade. Got to meet them and hang out with them before and after the show. They are great. Show rocked too.

Biffy Clyro played absolutely amazing. Song choices were well-varied and the performances were top-notch. I wasn't sure what to think of what I heard from Morning Parade prior to the concert, but afterwards I was very eager to hear everything they put out. If Biffy Clyro comes back to the states again, I'll drop everything I'll be doing and go see them again. I recommend you do the same.

Biffy Clyro is a phenomenal live band and the very small venue made for a really intimate show. I saw them in 2011 at same venue and can't wait to see them again. They never disappoint!!

You can pay $100 dollars to see some megagroup in an arena with their lasers and special effects. Or you can see the real deal for 20 bucks at a place like Brighton Music Hall. Biffy Clyro is a well kept secret on these shores, but they're huge in Europe. Every song is played with such energy and passion, you can't help but get caught up in the Biff's infectious and compelling songs. The next time they come to your town, do yourself a favor and seek them out. You'll be saying "Mon The Biff!" before you know it.

Biffy Clyro was extremely unimpressive. Considering their "status" from the UK, I expected more. They had a math-rocky/british-pop/alternative-indie feel that wasn't really math rock, wasn't really "poppy", wasn't really alt. and wasn't really indie. They also came off as pompous and unfriendly. Sorry guys... you aren't big enough to be jerks, even if you were big enough... you still shouldn't be jerks. It's a damn good thing "Mellow Bravo" was there. They put on a pretty amazing show. I would definitely go and see them again!

I had no idea that there were going to be TWO opening bands (I felt bad for the first band up...there were maybe 15 people in the venue). Hello Bravo was pretty good but not what I was expecting (great rock sound). Band turn around was FAST and the crowd stayed pretty pumped. Biffy came on and everyone was psyched - but the show wasn't what I thought it would be (but that's probably just because I had gotten a different impression from the band's mainstream music and videos). It's a safe venue (I never felt crowded or intimidated by the size of the event). I had a good time, but it wasn't the highlight of May for me.

I LOVE this band, I have been going to see Biffy Clyro for the last 8 years, since they started gigging in tiny clubs in Scotland. I recently moved over to Boston and they have played here twice since I got here... This gig (their second) was awesome, I love their energy and I love their music!!!!!!!!!

Biffy Clyro were amazing. I've seen them play in seven countries now over the past three years, and they always give 200%. Hands down, the best live rock band touring today. Unfortunately, they only sold about 60 tickets and most of the crowd stood at the back by the bar and watched. I blame the local radio station The Zone@ 94.1 for not promoting this gig. It broke my heart to see such a poor turnout. If anyone actually reads these reviews, listen up. If Biffy Clyro come to your town or anywhere near you, GO AND SEE THEM. You won't regret it.

Biffy clyro rules hands down. They were super tight and loud and they impressed me thoroughly! Ive been a musician for many years and dont go to many concerts anymore but this was def worth going to. New rock and roll with a genuine sound. Keep rockin

Start to finish a great show. Their energy is infectious and thier musicality is spot on. By far the best show I've seen of the Biff. MON THE BIFFY!

Easily one of the best shows I've seen in a few years. They're machines on stage never missing a beat or note. True professionals with a very unique and creative sound. With all the trash on the radio it's nice to know that there is still great music being made. I'm just sorry it took me till the 5th album to hear about them. A must see live. They do a very good job of capturing the live energy on the albums but live they tear your face off.

Biffy Clyro is one of the really good live bands around...they had so much energy on stage & I think they sound better live (if that is even possible)...The Phantoms (opening band) were alright...they did do a good cover of Message in a bottle..I thought the lead sounded a bit like Placebo...but good stuff...Moving Mountains was great too...but maybe a bit too rock for my taste...and of course, Biffy ruled the night!
