Biffy Clyro, one of the foremost and influential rock bands in the UK right now, will be releasing their new single, ‘The Captain’, on 26 October through 14th Floor Records. The single is taken from their highly anticipated forthcoming new album Only Revolutions, to be released on 9 November 2009. ‘The Captain’ follows on from Biffy Clyro’s recent massive top 10 single ‘That Golden Rule’, which was put on the Radio 1 A list a full 5 weeks upfront; and ‘Mountains’, which was released in August 2008 and became their biggest single chart success to date, entering the UK chart in the top 5 and selling over 100,000 copies.

In November 2009, Biffy Clyro will be playing a fifteen-date tour of the UK and Ireland. The tour will see the band return to London’s Brixton Academy on 12 November after their triumphant sell-out gig at the venue last December, as well as two home-coming shows at Glasgow’s Barrowlands on the 2 and 3 of November. This will be the first series of live dates for Biffy Clyro after the release of their impending new album. The album, the band’s fifth and second with 14th Floor Records, is being recorded in LA, once again with Puzzle’s producer GGGarth Richardson (Rage Against The Machine, Red Hot Chili Peppers), and mixed by Andy Wallace (Coldplay, Nirvana, Faith No More) and is set to be a vital and monumental record.
