Coldplay

Rush of Blood and viva La Vida are OKAY, everything else I've heard is terrible, so my opinion on Coldplay is currently mixed.

Anyone hear Prospeckt's March yet?

I have. It's alright. I thought Life in technicolor II could have been better, the alternative version of Lost is just Jay-Z doing his same old tired shit, I haven't noticed any difference in the Lovers in Japan (Osaka sun mix). Glass of water is pretty sweet though. I'll give it a few more listens...

You think Viva is ok and Parachutes is terrible? I must say that is a very interesting choice.

I'm downloading Parachutes right now, it's their only album I haven't heard. Is it really that good?

But they aren't, thats the whole thing. No matter how crap they are or seem, they don't take themselves seriously.

in my opinion, parachutes was their best release.

Easily their best. While it doesn't have the singles of Rush of Blood, it functions as an album very well, especially the first half.

Same here it sounds like the exact same on Viva La Vida. But I though Life in Technicolor II was great, and I loved how on Rainy Day it sounds like Chris is singing underwater. Post Cards From Far Away sounds great though I wish it was longer.

My fav new songs in order

Life in Technicolor II
Glass of Water
Postcards from Far Away
Rainy Day
Prospekt's March / Poppyfields
Now My Feet Won't Touch the Ground

Anybody get the Ep off itunes? It comes with a different video version to Viva La Vida.

Parachutes and Rush of Blood are both incredible albums, but I have to give a slight nod to Rush of Blood. There really isn't a weak song on Rush of Blood, whereas Parachutes fades IMO with We Never Change and Everything's Not Lost.
