Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Mad for sadness? Then Northern Irish four-piece Snow Patrol could be the band for you. Fully paid-up members of the generation of youthful Brit-rockers--see also JJ72 and Muse--Snow Patrol twin their histrionic-heavy guitar-fuzz to the vulnerable, reed-thin vocals of a teen-angstified frontman. But ignore lead singer Gary Lightbody when he hisses that he's "never gonna fall in love again" on the opening track of the same name; When It's All Over We Still Have To Clear Up is an album about giving your heart away, feeling it break and desperately trying to reassemble it before the next emotional meltdown. Perversely, some of this record's greatest moments find amps turned down and emotions laid desperately bare: the acoustic "Make Love To Me Forever" and the love-laid-to-rest lament of "If I'd Ever Found The Right Words To Say". But that's not to say that the ballsy pop songs--see "Ask Me How I Am", the sound of a harmony-laden Sebadoh playing hip-hop through a detuned radio--don't make the grade. And when it's all over? They may have been casualties in the Wars Of Love, but as Lightbody whispers "we won't get much sleep" on the closing "Firelight", you know that--like you--Snow Patrol are ready to flip the record and live it all again. --Louis Pattison

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant - a must have, 2 Jan 2005
By A Customer
A great album.
I only heard of snow patrol this year and whn i found out that they had released another 2 albums beside Final Straw i decided t check them out and i was surprised at the quality of this understated band that had been formed in 1994 and i hadn't heard about them. I highly recommend this album to any Snow Patrol fans and their most recent album Final Straw.
The songs are sung with such emotion that you will be totally fixated on the band.
Some of he songs are very quiet and may have to read the sleeve to read what the vocals are but i think that the quietness of the vocals adds emotion to the songs and makes you fill up with emotion after hearing the pain and anger that the lyrics include.
Once you know what the lyrics are you will understand the emotion behind the songs and really get into the meaning.
Gary Lighbody voice takes you into the emotions that he is feeling on some of the songs (An olive grove facing the sea and If i'd found the right words to say)
Great songs include:
An olive grove facing the sea -a beautifully sung song has so much emotion too it.
One night is not enough,If i'd found the right words to say and
Last Ever Gunman.
This really is a great album after you have played it a few times you will totally fall in love with this album.
A must for Snow Patrol Fans

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely amazing, 21 Jun 2001
Snow patrol were the first band I saw live this year and quite frankly the blew me away. I had heard of the band before, but I had never heard their actual music. Gary Lightbody (their singer) really motivated the crowd to really get into the music and after the gig I could`nt help but buy this album..

The first couple of listens to this album will seem slightly dissapointing, but dont fret this album will definitely grow on you and even the more inaccessible tracks such as "firelight" and "batten down the hatch" will eventually be adored.

This album is made one hundred percent better by the inclusion of the lyrics on inside sleeve. It is often hard to make out what Lightbody says and once you can truly fathom the lyrics then the songs take on a whole new dimension.

Lighbody sings predominantly about his lost/forbidden loves, this is obvious is in the stupendously good "olive grove" and "one night is not enough". As far as song themes go, the nihilistic "lone gunmen" is also very interesting (lets just hope it isnt true).

The bass riffs in Snow Patrol`s music are very original for this style of music, but the CD version of these riffs do not do them justice as live the bass playing is one of the things that really grabs your attention.

Mr Quinn their drummer is quite good too.

4.0 out of 5 stars its a grower, 13 Mar 2007
By joey (wales) - See all my reviews
i bought this album without hearing it because i loved final straw and eyes open, and to be honest the first time i listened to it i was really disappointed. i thought it was slow and uninspiring and had a real feel of 90's indie music about it, however a couple of weeks later i listened again and found there were a few songs on it that i really liked, and after playing it a few more times i now really like it. its one of those albums that grows on you and sounds better the more you hear it, and while at first i thought it was a poor effort from snow patrol i now realise that this album is the foundation on which some of their later masterpieces are built on. definitely worth getting.
