Biffy Clyro have completed 14 songs for brand new album

Speaking to XFM, the band's frontman Simon Neil said that he's already written 14 songs for the follow-up to 2013's double album 'Opposites'. Of the band's prospective seventh LP, Neil commented: "I've written about 14 songs so far. We're kind of doing some demos of them at the moment. The fact that the ball is rolling on this record is very exciting, I think we'll look to record it maybe the start of next year, possibly out for the end of next year."

He added: "To me making a record, it's an ongoing process. You might not be ready to record it in a couple of months but the creativity and the evolution of the band, it picks up exactly where it left off."

Biffy Clyro will headline this summer's T In The Park and Isle of Wight Festivals. After those two appearances Neil said that the band will go off the radar, so fans will miss them. He commented: "It's probably wise for us to disappear for a wee while, as well. We've had so much love from people and they've been so kind but there's nothing worse than a band that just stays in your face for ages and ages so we'll probably disappear for a while and hopefully you guys will miss us."
