and the demo version of 'Chocolate' has been released today:

 

oh wow one of the best albums of the 00s

got it on CD originally so hopefully this is out on vinyl now

 

EDIT: Just checked and it' out as CD in April... but the vinyl doesn't come out until August :/

it's out as a triple Gold vinyl, which looks pretty

I’d def go for the vinyl as you say one of the best albums of the 00s!

Snow Patrol are now down to a three-piece, as both drummer Jonny Quinn and bassist Paul Wilson have left.

 

They’ve confirmed that the band will continue, and a new album will release next year!
