Title: Disappointing
Review: I love Snow Patrol, I really do. Final Straw is a great album and it made me go out and buy their older stuff (that I could find). I even saw them last year at Coachella and was really impressed by their live show.But this album is really disappointing.It's really produced, to the point where it seems like the question when recording it was "how do we make this song appeal to the most people?" There's an edginess that's lost on this album. To that end, it doesn't feel as sincere, either.The vocals are probably the easiest to point to, as what once sounded like heartfelt indie rock now seems like light rock crooning.I had high hopes for Snow Patrol -- and for this album -- but those hopes weren't realized.
Is the review positive or negative?
