High Hopes for Biffy Clyro?

I h ave heard a lot about Biffy Clyro but never heard their music. In fact, I still haven’t. I was intrigued, however to see the cover of their latest album.

Which looked a lot like Storm Thorgerson‘s work for Pink Floyd, the Division Bell. In particular this one particular image bears a striking resemblance to the shots for High Hopes. (You can see more of this imagery in the video at the end of the post.)

A quick bit of digging shows indeed Storm is working with Buffy and this additional image shows they are going for a very Pink Floyd (or is Storm?) style, this one reminisicent of Wish You Were Here.

Brilliant! I love Storm’s work, my walls are covered in Pink Floyd prints and I find his work very inspring.

As he is working with Biffy I will now go and listen :-)

    I just saw Biffy's album cover and through the same thing (found your page searching for whether there was a connection). Thanks for the pointer to the artist!
