Biffy Clyro have spoke about their 'mighty' forthcoming double disc album.
The band, who are currently working on the anticipated follow-up to 2009's 'Only Revolutions', said the the album will feature 20 songs - 10 on each disc.
In an interview with Radio 1's Zane Lowe frontman Simon Neil said: It sounds dangerous when you say it out loud but we're trying to explore writing songs in a different manner."
He added: "We're not going to throw every song we've ever done on it - it's not that kind of double album.
"It'd be a bit much to just bang out 20 rock songs."
"There are a couple of songs that are written entirely on keyboards, string sounds, and I guess Phil Collins-type electro beats behind it.
"We're just investigating and experimenting with what we feel comfortable doing. We haven't got any reggae songs or dubstep - that's not going to appear on the new one, but there's a song that's a bit mariachi, which is going to be beautiful."
The band have yet to announce details of a release date for their as-yet-untitled new album.
Meanwhile, Biffy Clyro have among the acts confirmed for this year's Isle of Wight festival. For more information about Isle Of Wight and all this summer's festivals, check out the Gigwise Festival Guide.
