Stone Birds, as much time as you spend trying to alert everyone of spam, do you not realize your OP in this thread isn't much different?

Snow Patrol have a pretty generic sound, but they aren't terrible.

i'm not telling people to go i'm asking if i should go (the image may have been a bit too much)
sorry if it bothered you, i think i'll change the direction of this thread so its more about Snow Patrol

The only album i have is Final Straw which i got when they released it in 2004. There's a few good songs on it but the rest just sound bland and do nothing for me, i've never bothered with their other albums. I saw them live 2 years ago and they put on a good show though.

I thought Hundred Million Suns was a step back from Eyes Open and Final Straw, but in fairness to them those are two tough albums to stack up against. Dreadnaught was right when he said Snow Patrol's sound is pretty generic, but I have yet to tire of either Final Straw or Eyes Open. I'd also encourage anyone who hasn't to check out their earlier albums (Songs for Polar Bears/When It's All Over...). They're a lot more raw and have what I guess you could call an "indie" sound, but they're definitely good if you're in the right mood. Very different from their recent polished sound.

I'm seeing them tonight as they are opening for Coldplay, I guess I should download one of their albums.
