Ben told the Daily Star newspaper’s Wired column: “We had planned something then this all happened so it’s going to be impossible to fit it all in with the new album.

“It will be a strange non-anniversary.

“We will have to wait for 25.”

The ‘Many of Horror’ hitmakers returned with their chart-topping ninth studio album, ‘A Celebration of Endings’, this month.

And drummer Ben has teased a second album of B-sides is to follow.

He said: “We have to record all of the songs that are left over because Simon [Neil] writes at least twice as much as is on the album.

“So we have another album of B-sides, or an accompanying album, to record.”

Due to the ongoing threat of Covid-19, Biffy were forced to postpone all of their planned tor dates across the UK, Ireland, Europe and Australia.

However, they have tentatively announced the ‘Fingers Crossed’ tor for next summer, if concerts can return safely in 2021.

Ben said: “The safety of everyone comes first.

“We have to stand by and cross our fingers that we can tor and people are able to come out.

“It’s annoying having to sit at home – a massive part of what we do is about getting on stage and connecting with people.

“But there are worse things happening than a rock band having to postpone their tor.

“I’m not going to complain if we can’t.”

Meanwhile, the sticksman quipped that frontman Simon must be a “clairvoyant” because the songs on ‘A Celebration of Endings’ are eerily fitting to the current global pandemic.

He added: “Songs have taken on a new dimension and it’s interesting how on-point the lyrics are for where we are now.

“Simon must be a clairvoyant.”
