Biffy singles comp: tracklisting and release date announced

Biffy Clyro

Beggars Banquet, the former record label of rock triumverate, Biffy Clyro, have announced a tracklisting and release date for the band's Singles 2001-2005’ compilation.

In shops on July 7, The CD, which comes with approved artwork and a handpicked listing and ordering by the band, according to Beggars, runs as follows:

'27'
'Justboy'
'57'
'Joy.Discovery.Invention'
'Toys Toys Toys Choke, Toys Toys Toys'(single version)
'The Ideal Height' (single version)
'Questions And Answers'
'Eradicate The Doubt'
'There's No Such Thing As A Jaggy Snake'
'Glitter And Trauma' (single version)
'My Recovery Injection' (single version)
'Only One Word Comes To Mind' (single version)

We even chose an old picture for this article especially. Oh, and you can also purchase the comp as a download, but that'd be just odd, surely?

They haven't really approved it though

Apart from agreeing to artwork and asking Beggars not to attempt to make a 'new' album (Hence the chronological track list?) They don't seem particularly happy about the release. Their manager Neil wrote about it in his blog a while back.

*Tour Manager

the pedant in me couldn't let such a mistake lie uncorrected :(

i dont hate puzzle

but when you compare it to them songs its absolutely shit

and also

who will buy this?

some of the tens of thousands of people

who bought puzzle but haven't bought any of the other records?

The single version

of Only One Word is the same as the one used for the video right? Because that was just awful compared to the album one.

Good idea for the Puzzle brigade

No incentive for old fans to buy this though...a b-sides cd as a 2nd disc would've been a good idea.

^ Agreed

They could do a Myvitriol - as they released between the lines with all the rarities and b-sides.

I miss

^ that Biffy ^

in the pantheon of shit biffy clyro artwork

that isn't that high up.

!

Hahahaha!

What the fuck is that?!

yeah its pretty crap (it makes them all look like Johnny from 'Naked' by Mike Leigh...

but it HAS to be better than the 14-year old wank fantasy that was The Vertigo Of Bliss?

its a good idea

for the Radio One listeners that think Puzzle is their debut... B-sides comp would be nice though - I still want a half-decent version of 'Take Me Out'

Or Go Your Own Way

That's a cracking cover.

surely

that isnt the artwork?!?!

don't

call me shirley.

b-sides

would get "...and with the scissorkick is triumphant" out there as well, possible one of their best songs.

Vertigo of Bliss

is their only wholly good album though, right?
