Product description

Including the new single The Beginning, The Forest is the Path is an album rooted in reflection, introspection and interrogation. One of its key building blocks, says Gary, was the idea of love from the distance of time. “I haven’t been in a relationship for a very long time, 10 years or more, so love from a distance to me meant the way a relationship sits in your memory from a distance of, say, 10 years. That’s not something I’d previously thought about as away to write about love. So it’s like, when you’re in love, you’re standing in the lobby of the Empire State Building. When you’ve broken up with that person, you’re out in the street. You can still see the building, but you’re not in there anymore. And when it’s 10 years later, now you’re standing in Brooklyn looking at the Manhattan skyline.”"

    5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely Album

    It seems an age since the last Snow Patrol album so it is great to hear from them again. After such a long hiatus I wasn't sure what to expect but I certainly wasn't disappointed.

    I have one of the signed copies which arrived within 3 days of ordering and was delivered by DPD who even knocked on the door rather than simply shoving it through the letterbox.

    The signatures are crisp and clear in silver pen. The only criticism I would make is that someone at غ saw the need to stick a barcode sticker right across one of the signatures. Luckily it came off with causing any damage. Perhaps in future غ could go back to the signed inserts which can at least be framed?

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 November 2024

    This isn't a bad album, but it's all fairly typical of Snow Patrol and none of the tracks really stand out. There's nothing of the class of Run or Chasing Cars. Fans of the group will like, maybe even love, it. But if you've not heard them before then, as an introduction to the band, look at previous albums first.

    This album is one of the best comebacks ever! I love every Snow Patrol album but The Forest Is The Path is absolutely amazing. I can't stop listening to it. Every song's lyrics sound so personal, so beautiful, the music is divine. Well done, guys!!! I absolutely love the work you put into this album. Pure perfection.

    I’m going to see the great SP in February and of course the sound will be miles better than this recording. I’m so disappointed with the compressed production with no dynamics like there was on, ‘Wildness’ which I have on a 24bit Download. Maybe it’s better on LP ? Or hi-res download?

    Difficile de battre EYES OPEN qui est leur plus spectaculaire mais celui-ci nous apporte assez de bons moments pour soutenir notre intérêt. Je leur donne un bon 7 sur 10 pour leur effort louable.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Una conferma della qualità degli Snow Patrol
    Reviewed in Italy on 16 October 2024

    E' uscito un po' in sordina questo The Forest Is The Path degli Snow Patrol, gruppo non proprio 'main stream' nel panorama musicale odierno. Ed è stata una bella sorpresa anche me, che del gruppo sono un estimatore, questa ennesima produzione del 2024, anno molto fortunato dal punto di vista delle novità musicali proposte da tanti gruppi che amo. La musica proposta rappresenta l'evoluzione delle precedenti proposte, con qualche sonorità che sembra di conoscere già. Da ascoltare senz'altro.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Überragend, Gratulation, Mr. Lightbody!!!
    Reviewed in Germany on 18 September 2024
    Verified Purchase
    Ich bin seit "Final Straw" glühender Fan dieser Band. Dass sie jetzt nur noch als Trio arbeiten, hat mich zunächst schockiert. Aber hat sich das nicht schon ab "Reworked" abgezeichnet?

    Jedenfalls hätte ich der Band so ein großartiges Album nicht mehr zugetraut. "Wildness" war auch umwerfend, teils aber etwas sperrig. Und jetzt alles aus einem Guss. Stimmlich ist Gary Lightbody so gut, wie nie. Zerbrechlich, stark, sanft, kraftvoll, kurz: unverkennbar.

    Ich ziehe den Hut vor seiner privaten Geschichte (vor allem gesundheitlich), die Aufarbeitung hat mich schon bei "Wildness" bewegt, mich berührt dieser Mann - und bei der letzten Tour habe ich diese Zerrissenheit, diesen Schmerz erleben dürfen - aber auch diese unbändige Lebensfreude.

    Meines Erachtens gibt es keinen schlechten Song, im Gegenteil. Perfekt für den anstehenden Herbst. Tipps: "All", "this is the sound of your voice", "never really tire" und "what if nothing breaks" - eigentlich alle Lieder! Schade, dass Snow Patrol hier keine adäquate Wertschätzung erfahren. Im Vergleich zu Coldplay - die ich auch sehr liebe, aber doch leider zu beliebig geworden sind - haben Snow Patrol nie den Weg in Richtung Einheitsbrei (radiotauglich) eingeschlagen. Volle Punktzahl!!!

    Slàinte mhath!

    Snow Patrol’s music is simply beautiful. I have all their albums & The Forest is the Path is as fantastic as all the others. Mr. Lightbody’s voice lends the music & lyrics a hypnotic quality. It is in my CD player now. I buy the CD because I know I will love every song. I was right!
