Including the new single "The Beginning", *The Forest Is The Path* is Snow Patrol's eighth studio album released September 13, 2024. The record is rooted in reflection, introspection and interrogation; singer Gary Lightbody explained that one of its key building blocks is the idea of love from a distance of time, describing how a relationship sits in your memory after a decade. 
This indie‑exclusive limited edition coloured vinyl is pressed on blue 2‑LP and packaged in a gatefold jacket. The twelve tracks are: "All", "The Beginning", "Everything’s Here and Nothing’s Lost", "Your Heart Home", "This Is the Sound of Your Voice", "Hold Me in the Fire", "Years That Fall", "Never Really Tire", "These Lies", "What If Nothing Breaks?", "Talking About Hope", and the title track "The Forest Is The Path". 
The album marks Snow Patrol's first release since bassist Paul Wilson and drummer Jonny Quinn departed the band and follows their 2018 album *Wildness*.
