Building on the success of 2006`s EYES OPEN, A HUNDRED MILLION SUNS cements Snow Patrol`s place as one of the premiere alternative pop-rock bands of the early 2000s. All the elements that made up the band`s previous work--resonant-hooky melodies, crisp arrangements, and a searching, expansive indie rock feel--are refined and elevated on this 2008 release. In addition to strong songwriting and carefully balanced sonic elements, A HUNDRED MILLION SUNS plays to Snow Patrol`s ability to balance commercially minded pop with an indie rock ethos, as ballads like "Crack the Shutters" and the lush, groove-driven "The Golden Floor" prove. Polished and well crafted from beginning to end, the band`s fifth full-length is arguably their strongest, and puts them in the running for indie pop-rock stardom.
