MY THOUGHTS:

Snow Patrol is an Indie-rock band from Scotland that has been around since 1994, and yet somehow I never caught onto them.  Actually I have heard a few of their songs before but I never knew who sung them!  Their song “Chasing Cars” is probably one of their more popular songs but with their new album there are some memorable ones too.

As all artists should, Snow Patrol has grew with the times and their new cd Fallen Empire includes the same typical music but with a more techno base on some songs.  The songs are upbeat but still recognizable as soulful and indie-rock Snow Patrol.  I find myself putting this CD on throughout the day as I am blogging, cleaning or just unwinding at the computer.

Songs on Fallen Empires include:

• I’ll Never Let Go
• Called Out In The Dark
• The Weight Of Love
• This Isn’t Everything You Are
• The Garden Rules
• Fallen Empires
• Berlin
• Lifening
• New York
• In The End
• Those Distant Bells
• The Symphony
• The President
• Broken Bottles Form A Star (Prelude)
