Thanks Biffy, The Captain is it!

Biffy Clyro have a new single out, The Captain. It's the follow up to That Golden Rule and features on their upcoming album Only Revolutions. I never really got fully on board with That Golden Rule, but The Captain, in my opinion, better represents the sound that Biffy hinted at in That Golden Rule. It's like they've made the perfect rock/pop fusion track. And I love it!

It's got the epic intro and outro that the previous single had and the middle is just pure Scottish twanged melodious goodness.

It's been criticised by die hard Biffy Clyro fans, who say they've sold out and gone mainstream. I'll quite happy admit I haven't been a Biffy Clyro fan since the beginning so I can't comment on their musical transition from the past. However, what I do know is this single is top quality. Looking forward to the album.
