Biffy Clyro have made their return with the release of their new single ‘A Little Love’.
With their first release since their 2021 album ‘The Myth Of The Happily Ever After’, the Scottish rock trio, comprised of vocalist Simon Neil, drummer Ben Johnston and his twin brother, bassist James Johnston, have unveiled their latest track ‘A Little Love’, a powerful new record that explores the complexities of love and heartache.
The band first introduced the track to fans in May during an intimate, secret show held in Glasgow, where they performed under the alias ‘Skrewfish’. Following that, they brought the track to a wider audience with a high-energy set at Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Liverpool. After weeks of mounting excitement, the song was finally made available on streaming platforms last Wednesday, 11 June, marking its official release.
The music video for ‘A Little Love’, directed by Piers Dennis and choreographed by Olivier award-winning Steve Hoggett, draws inspiration from Marina Abramović’s 1977 work ‘Relation In Time’. We watch as the trio hold each other, pushing their bodies into intricate and dynamic positions. It visually emphasises the emotional and physical connections among the band members, underscoring the song’s themes of unity and affection.
With more music reportedly on the horizon, ‘A Little Love’ could signal the beginning of a new chapter for Biffy Clyro, potentially paving the way for the announcement of their highly anticipated 10th studio album. Although fans don’t yet have much information, a post on the band’s Instagram in January simply captioned “Back at it” hints that more is yet to come.
Currently, the band is touring, playing a string of shows at festivals across Europe, including Rock For People in Czechia, and Nova Rock in Austria. They will hit Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage on 27 June.
