Biffy Clyro guy had a blue Strat with the paint worn off revealing sunburst underneath. Makes me want to know the history of the guitar, or whether he bought it from the custom shop like that.

This is his best 12" bar none. Fantastic record. But find it hard to listen to him now.

Is this BFOD we're talking about? Sold out on gralefrit. Is there a way of buying it now that gives you the cash?

Wow, haven't heard or thought about this for years. First heard in sixth form and loved it. Went through a Hammill/VDGG phase back then. Thinking I should revisit.

Yes right, I know he was pretty disgusted with Fleetway/IPC's treatment of Joe Colquhoun, for example. I guess if AM had owned Halo he could have finished it somewhere else. A real shame.

(I love your podcast, by the way)
