Rocker Biffy Clyro have shared the artwork for their upcoming new studio album, entitled 'Ellipsis'. 

The highly anticipated record, which is due to be released on July 8 via Warner Bros Records and 14th Floor Recordings, will be the follow-up offering to 2013's 'Opposites'. 

Speaking about the album recently, frontman Simon Neil explained: "For the first time ever we’ve been messing around properly with programming, so rather than making the heavy parts heavy with guitars and distortion, we’re trying to find different ways to make things intense."

"It’ll be leaner and meaner than the last – no orchestras. This album is going to be the opposite of cinematic. If the last records were kind of Ridley Scott, then this one is more John Waters. It’s quite dirty! We’ve taken a lot of influence from recent hip-hop records, like the latest A$AP Rocky – they’re so fucking good because they’ve got really grimy, dirty, horrible sounds with beautiful vocals, or vice versa. We’re trying to get that balance of things teetering on the edge of chaos the entire time. It’s going to sound like Biffy, but it’s about ‘rocking’ instead of ‘rock’."
