The Trip created by Snow Patrol includes a variety of styles as the album takes listeners on a unique musical journey – featuring tracks from TV On The Radio, Dark Room Dubs, Four Tet, Mylo, Jack Knife Lee and more.

Taking you through the musical journey of their lives, previous The Trip albums created by Dirty Vegas, Tom Middleton, Tim ‘Love’ Lee and most recently Saint Etienne have delighted music fans everywhere. Picking an eclectic selection of music, from tracks they love, tracks that have influenced them and gems that they found over the years, the result has met with critical acclaim each time – The Trip by Snow Patrol does that and more.


This is a great, wide-ranging double mix CD of indie pop, rock, electronic and hip-hop. Typically, great musicians have great musical taste, and most fans would like nothing better than to hang out with their favorite musicians just listening to music. That’s generally not an option, or one that if pursued will lead to a restraining order. Artist-curated mixes are the next best thing then, from downtempo affairs such as the "Another Late Night" and "Back To Mine" series to a point of purchase discs sold in coffee shops. Scottish group Snow Patrol’s star is on the rise and rightly so – their brand of breathy, dramatic indie-rock trumps nearly anyone else doing the same thing. Many of the artists on The Trip are bound to be unfamiliar, even to crate-digging daily Pitchfork readers: Emperor Machine, Sir Drew, The Knife, Seelenluft, Feist, Dear Huth, Harco Pront. It’s moody and experimental but it’s accessible too. What they all share is as much of a love for melody as for invention. --Mike McGonigal
