Snow Patrol's Gary Lightbody: 'I'm Excited About Particle Physics'

Snow Patrol frontman Gary Lightbody has spoken about his interest in science.

“Physics especially has become an obsession of mine in recent years. I've read an awful lot about it. It's something that mystifies and allures me all at once,” he told the BBC.

Lightbody said he was currently “vey interested” in particle physics, “and the implications that it has”.

He said: “Teleportation and things like that seem to have come straight from the pages of science fiction books, but are maybe 20 years off actually happening.”

Snow Patrol are scheduled to release their new album, 'A Hundred Million Suns', on October 27th. It will be preceded by the single 'Take Back The City'.
