I thought Viva la Vida was the best Coldplay album yet, although I haven't Parachutes in its entirety. It was very diverse for them and the songwriting was consistently engaging.

My only real criticism would be that at times it resembled earlier Eno-produced bands a bit too heavily ("Life in Technicolor" sounded a bit like U2, "Chinese Sleep Chant" a bit like Slowdive) but it didn't really irk me that much.
