I've never understood why so many people love this band, they make me want to projectile vomit all over the place. Then again I never understood the obsession with U2 so I guess there's just something I'm missing with certain bands. But I'm glad Chris Martin has finally admitted they are pretty much horrible.
There's nothing wrong with disliking U2 and Coldplay. It just says that you don't like music that scientists have cooked up in a lab as a cure for insomnia. _________________ I love all music. It makes you feel like living. Silence is death.
Actually, I have this weird new theory about Coldplay albums - the further they get from Rush of Blood to the Head, the worse they get. It's like that album is a liquid core emanating talent, and each other album is another layer over this core, each layer getting a significantly reduced concentration of "good".
Let's test this...
Parachutes: alright (1st layer)
Rush of Blood the Head: excellent (core)
X & Y: alright (1st layer)
Viva La Vida: meh... (2nd layer)
Mylo Xyloto: OH GOD MAKE IT STOP! MY EEEEEARS! (3rd layer)
Wait you like X&Y more than Viva La Vida (their best album!) What the fuck?

Oh yes I did.
Ok, this chart isn't TOTALLY fair, because I haven't finished all of Mylo Xyloto yet. But then again, I'm not sure I want to anymore. _________________ A dick that's bigger than the sun.
Coldplay's a good band, I just doubt they'll ever be 'great'.
Wooooahwoahwoah, let's not say such things.
History can be weird that way.
I mean, if I was living in the early 60's listening to Please Please Me, I'd probably tell you there was NO way this band would ever gain any artistic credibility or ever innovate. _________________ A dick that's bigger than the sun.
You mook's! they've already been great. just listen to Viva La Vida!
Now Weezer, that's a band that had promise but squandered it all.
I just like to pretend Weezer released the Blue Album and Pinkerton, then "Hash Pipe" as a single, and suddenly Rivers Cuomo died in a horribly gruesome ophthalmology-related accident. _________________ A dick that's bigger than the sun.
