2008 – CAPITOL
Produced By BRIAN ENO, MARKUS DRAVS, JON HOPKINS & RIK SAMPSON

1. Life In Technicolor
2. Cemeteries Of London
3. Lost!
4. 42
5. Lovers In Japan / Reign Of Love
6. Yes
7. Viva La Vida
8. Violet Hill
9. Strawberry Swing
10. Death And All His Friends

There was a point in time when people began to turn on Coldplay. That point is their fourth album, Viva La Vida (live life). What happened? Coldplay dared to make an album that didn’t sound like what they had done before is what happened. The results are a stunning and beautiful album that a lot of people have unfortunately shut out because it wasn’t what they wanted. If you are one of those people, you are missing out. Produced in part by Brian Eno, Viva La Vida is a musical trip. Coldplay make the most beautiful music of their careers here, stepping bravely outside of the roles that their first three albums defined for them. You’re not getting “Yellow” or “Clocks” or “The Scientist” here. And that is actually a very good thing. Coldplay proves here that they can grow and be different. Kudos for that alone.

So I file this one under Misunderstood. It still sounds like Coldplay. Chris Martin is still singing. And yes, there are still hits here. “Viva La Vida” is as recognizable as any Coldplay single. But there are also treasures worth digging for. The centerpiece here is “Yes” (which also includes the unlisted “Chinese Sleep Chant”), a stunning and lovely track. “Lost!”, “Cemeteries Of London” and “Lovers In Japan / Reign Of Love” are all excellent. They loaded the back end of Viva La Vida with singles instead of the front end, something pretty unheard of, because why make people listen to everything else to get to the hits? I like it. It’s bold and flies against the norm. Viva La Vida, which sold a gazillion copies and won a ton of awards, is still underrated. And that, itself, is quite a feat.

1990 – MUTE
Produced By THE BAD SEEDS

1. Foi Na Cruz
2. The Good Son
3. Sorrow’s Child
4. The Weeping Song
5. The Ship Song
6. The Hammer Song
7. Lament
8. The Witness Song
9. Lucy

Nick Cave is a pretty intense guy. And the music he makes is generally pretty dark stuff…not for the light hearted. The Good Son, his sixth album with The Bad Seeds, is actually what Cave sounds like when he’s almost happy. Almost. His albums had grown darker and darker, almost to the point of maybe this guy needs an intervention. But, as the 80’s were ending, he fell in love and went through rehab. The result is The Good Son, an album that finds Cave driving a bit of a safer distance from the edge of that cliff. He’s still addressing religion a lot here, and there are some really fine moments. But the truth about Cave and The Seeds is this: they are at their best when things get dark. Their best work is when things sound dangerous. And, on The Good Son, there just aren’t those moments where he scares you. In other words…the music on this album is dark. It really just is not dark enough.

The best track here is “Lament”. This is the song on the album that sounds the most…harrowing. It’s also the best written track here, and would have probably been a much better choice for a single than the two that WERE singles, “The Weeping Song” and “The Ship Song” (the tracks with those “song” titles were simply never changed from their working titles). The band has since gone on to better successes, particularly with the albums Murder Ballads and The Boatman’s Call, and they have released 16 studio albums to date. The Good Son has received a lot of praise over the years, but for me, it never rises above being average at best, and it never reaches that intensity level that makes Cave’s work so engaging and interesting. Still, this album is worth hearing (as is everything he has done). Who knows…this may click for you and move you more than it has me.
