Celebrating 20 years since the original release, Snow Patrol are reissuing their breakout third studio album, Final Straw; named as such due to the band thinking it was possibly their last album, their "last throw of the dice". It turned out to be the album that would put them on the map.
Includes three previously unreleased tracks from the album sessions, six original album track demos, plus new in depth and insightful liner notes written by Snow Patrol's lead singer, Gary Lightbody.
Pressed on gold Vinyl and housed in silver metallic effect gatefold sleeve, includes 12 additional tracks of never before heard demos, b-sides, and the previously unreleased track "Tired". Included too are extensive new liner notes from Gary Lightbody alongside writings on Final Straw from Jo Whiley and Fiction Records MD Jim Chancellor.
