5 stars My Favorite From Snow Patrol
I have all of their albums including "Songs For Polar Bears" and "Final Straw," and while each is filled with great, memorable songs, Snow Patrol's sophomore release, "When It's All Over We Still Have To Clear Up" sounds more connected and uses has a bigger variety of musical styles than the other two.

You begin the CD with a series of palm mutes, followed by a spacey riff and the soft, almost whispered voice of frontman Gary Lightbody. "Never Gonna Fall In Love Again" and "Ask Me How I Am" are…

1 stars Awful
This is without doubt the worst CD I have purchased in a really, really long time. I love Snow Patrol's more recent stuff, and I bought this to just get into them more...it's just horrid. The base is frequently louder than the really light vocals, and most of the songs just repeat the same line over and over...and over, and over...for most of the song. This is most notably true in "Never Gonna Fall in Love Again." It just...makes my skin crawl.
