Mid-tempo manifestos of mediocrity
. Meaty though unfullfiling sophomore release was more uptempo pop-rock of an even blander nature then the band became known for, they still had an album to go before cultivating their emo-friendly approach.


A must have, as goes for ALL Snow Patrol!!
Brilliant. I just adore this band, and this cd is a shining example.

I find that "When It's All Over We Still Have to Clear Up" has a broader range of styles than the other cd's. At first it was a bit harder to get into, but once you've heard it a time a two, you'll be sure to fall in love. I find songs from this cd and other Snow Patrol in every "playlist" on my iPod, their songs are so rich and expansive, they lend themselves to each mood. .


Awful
I love Snow Patrol's more recent stuff, and I bought this to just get into them more. This is without doubt the worst CD I have purchased in a really, really long time. . . it's just horrid. The base is frequently louder than the really light vocals, and most of the songs just repeat the same line over and over. . . and over, and over. . . for most of the song. This is most notably true in "Never Gonna Fall in Love Again. " It just. . . makes my skin crawl.


When It's All Over We Still Have to Clear Up


I would have liked to have heard some of the music and view the names of the songs. The CD itself was in perfect condition.

Spare Yourself the Disappointment
Trust me. If you loved Final Straw and Eyes Open, you'll hate When It's All Over We Still Have to Clear Up. Like the majority of Snow Patrol's new fans, I discovered the underrated rock group when watching Live 8. So we bought Final Straw and were not disappointed. It's a great album and in my opinion is better than Eyes Open, although that too is an album worth checking out.

When It's All Over We Still Have to Clear Up is not. Like many, I thought Final Straw was Snow Patrol's first album and was happy to learn that they had two other albums, one released in 1998 and another in 2001. My joy died the moment I played this album. Don't get me wrong. I didn't expect it to sound like Final Straw and I love it when rock bands experiment with their sound, but When It's All Over We Still Have to Clear Up is without doubt Snow Patrol's worst album thus far. If you absolutely must buy one of Snow Patrol's early albums, buy their first - Songs for Polar Bears. It's a good debut with some memorable, catchy tunes. What's more, it proves to Snow Patrol's critics that the band can really rock hard when they want to. While it's not as good as Final Straw or Eyes Open, Songs for Polar Bears is a masterpiece compared to this one. You've been warned.
