That's my thinking exactly.

 

Here's my little table:

 

Radiohead - Coldplay

First Album - Pablo Honey - Parachutes

The decent record. Though my least favorite.

 

Big Single - Creep - Yellow

Brings em to the mainstream. Dismissed as a one hit wonder.

 

Second Album - The Bends - A Rush of Blood to the Head

Much better album. A bunch of singles

 

Third Album - OK Computer - X&Y

Starts experiments with electronica.

 

Wowzers. xD

I don't think X&Y is going to sound exactly like OK Computer just as A Rush of Blood didn't sound exactly like The Bends. I just think the quality is going to be up there. :) I have this nagging feeling Coldplay's going to pull an amnesiac out next. Not a Kid A, that's too extreme for them.

The experiments for electronica aren't really part of X&Y...all they did was add a bunch of synths in the background, and they've been doing that since the beginning.

Try Square One? White Shadows? It's not electronica in the Aphex Twin sense of the word. I'm not saying the whole album is drum n' bass. Just listen to OK Computer. There's nothing like that there either. Electronica is different than techno mind you. Electronica is Brian Eno/David Bowie. Stuff like that.

Sampling Also Spach Zarathustra and putting a synth in the background isn't experimentation. Its been done for ages, so its not something new.

 

However, Square One and White Shadows are amazing songs and my two favorites of all the new ones.
