SNOW PATROL - A Hundred Million Suns - (Polydor/Fiction/Geffen Records)

The album is preceded by the fantastic single "Take Back The City", which comes with a video shot in East London courtesy of acclaimed video director Alex Courtes (White Stripes "Seven Nation Army").

Gary Lightbody (vocals/guitars) says, ""I'm so proud of this record. Everybody played out of their skin. Garret (Jacknife Lee) continued his progression from maverick genius to one of the best producers in the world. Musically, lyrically and sonically the best record we've made"

The Grammy-nominated band's fifth studio album was recorded throughout the Summer of 2008 in Hansa Studios in Berlin (where Bowie recorded "Low," "Heroes" and "Lodger") and at Grouse Lodge deep in the Irish countryside. Written by Snow Patrol, the album was produced by Garret "Jacknife" Lee (Bloc Party, REM, U2).

Snow Patrol are one of the biggest selling UK bands this decade and A Hundred Million Suns follows up the 2006 Number One, seven-times platinum phenomenon Eyes Open which sold 2.1 million copies in the UK and over 1 million in the US. Eyes Open achieved platinum awards across the world from the US and Canada to Germany, Australia and beyond, selling over 4.5 million copies. Their single "Chasing Cars" has just received its 2 millionth download in the US.

Amazon.com:
The Snow Patrol we meet on A Hundred Million Suns is a band facing the same dilemma that Coldplay met on 2008’s Viva la Vida; having conquered the world with a rousing, melancholy brand of MOR indie, where now? On the surface, A Hundred Million Suns seems to suggest, nothing especially new: producer Jacknife Lee, who first worked with the band on 2003's Final Straw and went on to work with the likes of U2 and REM returns to the fold; and an opening brace of songs suggest that a successful formula--chiming guitars, gentle builds, and Gary Lightbody's quavering, tremulous vocal--persists. Still, “Take Back The City", a windswept, electronic-tinged rocker, rather does for this band what “Dakota" did for Stereophonics, proving that a spot of sleek, synthetic motorik is not beyond their grasp, and there's a new, bright optimism to Lightbody's lyrics that sets the likes of “The Planets Bend Between Us" in light relief to some of Snow Patrol's earlier work. If you want experiments, though, you'll have to wait until the closing “The Lightning Strike", a 16-minute track in three parts that investigates Phillip Glass-style minimalism and electronic beats with some aptitude. --Louis Pattison

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Jimmy
I was already a fan of Snow Patrol, and this CD is great follow-up to their "Eyes Open" album. Crack the Shutters makes the album worth it everytime. -jimmy


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - JOSE PITA
On line with the last before, whitout big hit, but good all of it. Snow Patrol go ahead, slow but sure.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One of the best CDs of 2008
This is my first Snow Patrol album and it was an impulse buy. This was one of those "surprise me" things I do.

I wasn't surprised, rather I was swept off my feet. One beautiful album. I love all of the songs. I've read reviews of long-time fans, some I agree with, some I do not. But take my word on this, from someone expecting nothing ... I got so much more. Really worth the gamble.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Loved it!
I think this is the best Snow Patrol album ever. It's laid back and I like it.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - BRC Seminole FL
I have 2 other Snow Patrol CD's (Eyes Open & Final Straw) and I felt this was without a doubt their best album to date. The band really shows their musical flexibility. Snow Patrol shows their ability to rock with Please Take These Photos From My Hand & Disaster Button with one of my favorites being. the 3rd part of Lightning Strikes, Daybreak. On the other hand if you want to slow it down a bit just listen to the melodic Set Down Your Glass. Overall a great CD.
