coldplay is definitely one of the very best rock band since U2

I just hope they don't turn out the modern version of U2...

Their new EP is pretty good, anyone heard it yet? "Glass of Water" and "Rainy Day" are actually better than some of the tracks that made it onto the album!

Yeah, there is some great material on the new EP, for sure! Definitely does play out like the extended missing second side to Viva La Vida, but thankfully it follows in the interesting / creative vein of Viva. T'is a good EP!

Coldplay is definitely a "love them or hate them" sort of group. I fall somewhere in the middle. X&Y was pretty boring, but Viva La Vida and A Rush of Blood... are both pretty solid.

Best quote so far this year.

Thanks, but it's still pretty early in the year. Haha

All I have to say is, wow...

But anyways I would agree, X & Y was good, but sort of boring compared to Rush of Blood to the Head. I would say that there are better songs on it.

Oh, I have to admit to largely ignoring X and Y - it just didn't do a whole lot for me, unfortunately... there were nsome great individual songs on it, no doubts about that whatsoever... but as an album it all kinda ran together a bit too bland - REALLY glad they decided to mix it up a bit more on Viva La Vida.
