Biffy Clyro →
“The band’s sound is characterised by a heavy, yet melodic, mixture of guitar, bass and drums, with all three band members contributing to vocals. They are known for using in their songs complex and interwoven guitar riffs, unusual time signatures and chord sequences and melodies that often change throughout songs.”
Seriously, is there any better sight than every member of a...

"Twenty-Ten" or "Two Thousand (and) Ten"?
I’m really going to have to commit to one soon. I kind of freeze and think about it every time I have to say it.

At the time, I thought my mum was proud of me for my ingenuity. Now I realise she hated me, because now she’d have to find out what it was I’d done and trigger it.

WatchI took a break from Christmas shopping and held my phone down by my side.
