The bassline during the verse is so sick!

[@kungfuguitarboarder]

yeah love it too

[@lucasbonfils1426]

Thoses "play along" videos is a big hope for anyone playing in a band, reminds us you were kids playing on your bedrooms & having fun in the first place ! That timing tho !

HEARING IS A PROBLEM BECAUSE EVERYTHING'S BASS.

[@roarbrattas9242]

Got a drum in the back of my car!

[@MrHanBrolo]

One of my favourite bass lines of all time!

[@ianmccallum5690]

EASILY in my top 5 biffy bass songs! The song is the world and the bass it Atlas!

[@shaunbucknole8079]

Bloody hell. What a throw back. Sending me back to when I first listened to the whole album in my room from start to finish. When I was in sixth form? High school discussing when you guys would be touring. Hell I remember before Puzzle dropped and we were all discussing what tracks were on, what we’ve heard already. Man... thanks so much for that James. You guys have been my favourite band for so many years and have shaped who I am as a musician. Take care. All the best. Stay safe. Mon the Biffy.

[@dan4392]

Excellent.

[@mellendegenerate]

I was doing my A levels as well when Puzzle came out. Still got the orange Saturday Superhouse vinyl somewhere too. Still my favourite Biffy Album, still lose my shit to the end of Now I'm Everyone like it's brand new every time I hear it.

[@CillBlintonOfficial]

I just discovered Biffy a week ago and have been obsessed ever since

[@EliasCasula]

toys toys toys or liberate the illiterete would be lit! cheers James!

[@bennyjg4449]

I hope this misspelling of illiterate is purposeful. Otherwise the irony

[@robertbarnettguitar]

The bass during those verses is the slappiest thing ever. The groove he gets on such an existential track should be illegal. So underrated.

[@TheOnlyOnesLaughingPodcast]

I got so excited when I heard Buddy Holly

[@02smithm1]

YES! Would love Biffy to do b-sides and covers play along videos...

[@crussty]

Up there with Take Me Out as greatest cover ever

[@criddell86]

@@crussty YES!!!

[@UberSynth]

This is a great song. 😎

[@elainemackie1431]

Love you too James. Miss you guys

[@sabinaf9323]

One of my favourite songs, thank you James, I love the way you play. Always with you guys!

[@weakattheknees_]

The accidental playing of your Buddy Holly cover at 0:48 made me laugh 😂

[@batwingsmusic]

This guy is so lovely! And WHAT a great song!

[@ahanemone]

Dude this song fkn slaps so hard. Hearing this song reminds me of when my brother and I went to see Biffy in our city. I heard this song for the first time live and it gave me chills all over.

[@alarmclock314]

This song is so much fun to play. Thanks for sharing.

[@BoptimusPrime]

Hell yeah! Remember seeing you open for Queens of the stone age and when you played this, I was sold!

[@Remmy_Swag]

*Joint favourite twin from Biffy Clyro

[@paulhavoc7131]

I always wondered how this bassline should actually be played and... here it is! (Stunning bass, btw)

[@sixmonthssleep3057]

James, you are like sunshine. Please more play throughs, you're excellent.

[@danielblack4815]

Never realised how dope this bass line is

[@TheSeaUponUs]

Still can’t figure out how you can play this random intro live. LOVE this song! ❤️

[@estebanarias8481]

This is awesome. What a sweet bass riff in the verse. The bass guitar is pretty killer too....and I don't have a favorite Biffy twin, I love the triplets all the same

[@Christopher-md7tf]

Nice. Puzzle holds a special place in my heart as my first Biffy record. My first exposure actually was the Saturday Superhouse video late at night on MTV. I was immediately hooked because it just sounded so unique, it conjured up really special colours before my mind's eye. Also, the record just sounds amazing from a production standpoint, especially Ben's drums (I'm a drummer). Ah nostalgia...

[@emiliosconosciuto7834]

Cheers James, loving these videos! Mon the Biff!

[@coachgb]

For those of you curious about the bass James is playing, it’s a Nik Huber Rietbergen bass. I believe he has one in red as well. These masterpieces go for a pretty penny, so start saving!

[@kameokameo4166]

Thank you!!! :-). stay healthy

[@xjaggysnakex]

Thanks James!!!

[@ACHelliwell]

James seems like the kind of guy you just want to give a hug

[@sambartram3765]

Brilliant mate love to see u do 57

[@elpenza]

[@reelbigfisher9970]

Don't lie Jimbo, you're the best Biffy twin

[@joergjayjay3613]

It was a pleasure to watch! Enjoyned it....greets from Germany! And stay healty💪😉🤘🍀

[@Kerja_Relon]

I love Biffy Clyro. Your music is fantastic and always inventive. I play bass myself (obviously not as good as you James) but I'd love to see more of your bass playing videos. 👍

Legend

[@patrickmaguire2924]

Amazing to see a band like biffy doing play throughs of their songs so anyone wanting to learn can see exactly how to play them, also fingers and toes or thundermonster would be good to see.

[@thesilentu]

Up to this date..... this is the best single note pattern out there

[@jirkav]

Best cover on youtube!! Almost indistinguishable from the original, rock on!

[@adm5017]

Love that bass lines. I know how to play the guitar parts, now I can learn the bass parts too 😍

[@iinmywoorl]

Thank you, James! I'm really enjoying these videos and the verse line sounds sick! Keep them coming

[@dawnlogan8767]

Oh. My. God. That was class.

[@mallacoda1]

Thanks Jim. Really love the verse riff in this one, very clever. Inspires me to write better more interesting basslines

[@Mark_Bates]

I could have done definitely done the one strum intro... 😁 Anything else I'd be lost! Absolutely brilliant

[@gabrielmarkdahlke]

That was so good. Such a fantastic song. Can’t wait for Instant History!!! Cheers and Stay Safe

Love your t-shirt Jimbo!!

how on earth do you keep this syncopation so tight and remember those starts and stops :drooling:

[@charliejames57]

Legendary, please do something of VOB? Thanks!

[@dieb4um11]

Nice playthrough! Please more 🅱️ass playthrough! 😁 Maybe you could do something from Opposites? Biblical, Little Hospitals or Stingin' Belle? Or from Only Revolutions - That Golden Rule or Bubbles? Anyway I'll always slap like now on every video! 🥰 XOXO from Germany - Mon the Biff!

This Nik Huber bass is beautiful!

I hope you do loads of these

[@vancitycanucks]

Beautiful Huber!

[@popperbare1563]

Why does biffy always put my hair on end haha. Edit : it’s the melodies and cords that power through !! Also seen biffy 4 times live and each time was better than the last really good band live!

[@oliverhancock3161]

Still none the wiser on how to count those orchestral stabs at the beginning

[@ericanandes6831]

These videos are quality! Watched Simons ones from the weekend. Any chance of a few songs from the first 3 albums??

57 next please Jimbo 👍

That timing on the intro though

[@tomschneider8530]

The joke's on us !!!!!!!

[@Kevinsyel]

ah man! I've been trying to learn "Scared of Lots of Everything" on guitar for so long. I think I got it right. But I'm a bass player by trade, so I might have to learn more Biffy on bass.
