'Final Straw' has been hailed as one of the best British albums of 2004. A swooping attack of distorted guitars, fizzing drum beats and woozy pop anthems.
"Signed to the same label as Belle and Sebastian, Glasgow's 4-piece Snow Patrol is the face of modern pop. There are touches of Placebo, REM and even Radiohead present here. They have scored album of the week in "Music Week", 4 stars in Q magazine, plus rave reviews in both NME and 4Ks in Kerrang. It seems like they can do no wrong with their own unique style of rock 'n' roll."
