The Myth of the Happily Ever After is the ninth studio album by Scottish rock band Biffy Clyro, released on 22 October 2021 on 14th Floor and Warner Records. Produced by the band itself and Adam Noble, the album was recorded at the band's home studio on a dairy farm in Ayrshire, Scotland during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Considered to be a 'sister album' to their 2020 album, A Celebration of Endings, the album's release was accompanied by a documentary film, called Biffy Clyro: Cultural Sons of Scotland, which documented its writing and recording process across 2020 and 2021. Released to critical acclaim, the album debuted at number four on the UK Albums Chart and number one on the Scottish Albums Chart.
