Year in Rock 2013 Nominee: Biffy Clyro

BIFFY CLYRO
Victory Over The Sun
From: Opposites
Released: January 28

The main criticism for Biffy Clyro in recent years is their increasing reliance on radio friendly stadium rockers, but that's an overreaction on critics' part; radio friendly stadium rockers are what Biffy Clyro is good at, as evidenced by the material on double album Opposites (released as a butchered 14-track single disc in North America). Yes, it's streamlined, but the tunes are solid; besides, when you're packing European stadiums like Biffy Clyro do, you need big tunes like these.
