Ā Team BoLo nothing less ;]Ā Ā This album cannot fail. That is a bald statement of fact. If ƦX&YĆ does not break eight figures, then EMIĆ» BritainĆs last free-standing major record label Ć»will fall into inexorable decline, the World Bank will foreclose on the British government and massive tracts of Norfolk and Cornwall will crumble into the sea. ItĆs a remarkable thing, but with an artist as fantastically self-critical and flaky as Chris Martin, his label still decided it was a good idea to issue a profit warning to the stock-market because his bandĆs new album was a few weeks late.Ā The label quickly denied it, of course, and insisted it was also down to other parts of their business needing to perform Ć» ColdplayĆs tardiness was just a minor part in the blip. But thatĆs codswallop. You do the sums Ć» ƦA Rush Of Blood To The HeadĆ sold 11 million copies. When Coldplay were late with this one, the label got the shits and fired a shot across the bows.Ā How Chris Martin must have loved that. So it is that this has become the most anticipated third album since OasisĆ Ć¦Be Here NowĆ. ItĆs now the main talking point of the record industry, of the stock market and, somewhere down the line, of fans.Ā And because of the interest, the label have thrown together a containment and secrecy operation that makes the Opus Dei look like a transparent, all-embracing force for enlightenment (let them sue Ć» I have a good priest). To get this CD to NME, the label employed a special envoy who flew with a sealed parcel to Belfast where it was slowly slipped over the table in a city centre hotel. The name Coldplay appeared nowhere Ć» it was marked simply ƦThe Fir Trees albumĆ and even the track titles were adjusted. NME had to sign to a letter promising not to let anyone look at the record pre-release, never mind hear it, on pain of a slow, medieval death.Ā All this meant one of two things. Either the label felt they had one of the all-time great albums on their hands and would do anything to stop it leaking early onto the web. Or they had been sold a pup and were undertaking a brilliant marketing manoeuvre to make everyone think it was one of the all-time great albums.Ā Since ƦA Rush Of Blood To The HeadĆ, there have been very obvious changes to ColdplayĆs life. ThereĆs the Hollywood star wife, the baby, Chris Martin emerging as a surprisingly effective anti-paparazzi punch-thrower. But equally as telling are the similarities between life around the recording of that one and of ƦX&YĆ. Again, exhausted after a relentless, punishing tour, Coldplay had to sit down and decide if they still wanted to be a band. Having sold more than anyone ever dreamed, broken bigger in America than thought possible for a British band, they decided to retreat and come up with something even more mighty than before Ć» to reinvent the wheel, as Chris Martin must now regret saying.Ā Have they succeeded? Well, there are no tracks on ƦX&YĆ as immediate as ƦThe ScientistĆ or ƦIn My PlaceĆ or ƦYellowĆ. It takes time to seep in and get to you. But then Ć» and its easy to forget Ć» ƦA Rush Of BloodĆ ĆwasnĆt immediate either. Those songs might feel like part of the fabric now and that record might have opened with the slam-dunk of ƦPolitikĆ but it was an album that took a lot of listens.Ā Here, ƦSquare OneĆ picks up where ƦPolitikĆ left off. ItĆs Coldplay doing Radiohead, hoking round the studio for new sounds and shapes. It starts quietly before Chris chimes in with that broken glass voice, now as identifiable as any in music, and Johnny Buckland works through The EdgeĆs collection of effects pedals. ItĆs about cracking puzzles and codes, solving riddles Ć» a recurring Coldplay obsession. ItĆs about this record Ć» once you get it, it makes perfect sense - and its about Chris Martin.Ā Lucky for Coldplay and for us he remains riddled with self-doubt. He also remains absolutely intangible. The more he says and the more that is revealed about him, the less sense he makes. There were stories about Martin putting in 18-hourdays to get this record right. There were stories at the same time about problems at home and much of this album could easily by read as an open letter to his wife. ƦWhat IfĆ, with its cry of ƦWhat if you donĆt want me there by your side/What if you donĆt want me there in the lightĆ is, on the face of it, a simple message to Gwyneth Paltrow. The gentle, pulsing big ballad backing does little to change the idea. But thatĆs too obvious and too trite for Martin. ItĆs no leap to see it as a message to fans. Martin, ever the pessimist, is unsure if he has pushed things too far, if Coldplay have been front and centre too long and if he might lose the muse and never write another word or note of worth.Ā This nagging doubt is at the core of ƦX&YĆ. ItĆs a record about how we end up with the perfect one and the fear of keeping that intangible light burning. ItĆs also about a bunch of middle class boys lucking out, creating alchemy and becoming the biggest band of their generation while still scared shitless theyĆll end up working in a call centre. ItĆs a brilliant record of paranoia. Oasis third album was an overblown opus to the excesses of cocaine and the good-life. RadioheadĆs was a claustrophobic, intense look at the end of the world. Coldplay Ćs is about love and fear. When ƦFix YouĆ kicks in, which NME will concede must be about Paltrow (ƦTears stream down your face/When you lose something you canĆt replaceĆ and I will fix youĆ), itĆs an old-fashioned hair on the neck moment. ItĆs a wonderful song that shifts from simple stark piano and voice to a ringing, clattering burst of intent and proto-prog four-part harmony. It will become a massive live track. Elsewhere, you donĆt have to dig too deep to find the influences Coldplay have mined. ThereĆs the Kraftwerk lift (from ƦComputer LoveĆ) on ƦTalkĆ, a nod to PrinceĆs ƦWhen Doves CryĆ on ƦWhite ShadowsĆ, some Lennon-driven Beatles rocking through on ƦA MessageĆ and Echo & The Bunnymen here and there. They even sneak in ƦTil Kingdom ComeĆ, the song they wrote for Johnny Cash that he never got to record, as a simple acoustic secret track.Ā But it is U2, now ColdplayĆs natural peers, who loom largest of all. Their shadow falls on every note, in the complete confidence the band have playing togetherĆ» and Buckland is not backward about emulating The Edge on half a dozen tracks. Confident, bold, ambitious, bunged with singles and impossible to contain, ƦX&YĆ doesnĆt reinvent the wheel but it does reinforce Coldplay as the band of their time. The MD of Parlophone and his shareholders can sleep easy. This is a great, great record that has just raised the bar for everyone. ThatĆs probably of little consequence for Chris Martin. The worries for our great self-doubting hero about how to better it start now.Ā Paul McNameeĀ Ā Group News: -----------Ā Be On The Lookout For more quality releases from Team BoLo...
