Snow Patrol Releases New Song “This Is The Sound Of Your Voice”
Northern Irish alt-rock band Snow Patrol, consisting of Gary Lightbody (vocals/rhythm guitar), Nathan Connolly (lead guitar) and Johnny McDaid (keyboards), released the second single called “This Is The Sound Of Your Voice” from their upcoming eighth studio album “The Forest Is The Path” on July 5, 2024.
The new album is set to be released on September 13, 2024.
The track was written by Gary Lightbody, Johnny McDaid, Nathan Connolly, and Will Reynolds. Produced by Fraser T. Smith, Johnny McDaid, and Will Reynolds.
The band shared on social media, “Another step on the path... we're putting out another track from our new album this week. It's a special one to us. It's not the next single, we just wanted you to hear some more of the album. It's called 'This Is The Sound Of Your Voice'.”- The new album comprises a 12-track. It is the first release after drummer Johnny Quinn and bassist Paul Wilson left the band in 2023.
The album is rooted in introspection, reflection and interrogation. One of its key building blocks 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,” the band frontman Gary Lightbody said of the album. “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.” - source : Apple Music
