both...

That rock-pop denomination is sooo overrated and old, it shouldn't be used anymore, btw could somebody define those terms? they just seem so ambiguous for me in these times...

 

I like the bands I like for their music, never mind if is rock, pop or whatever. There's no need in trying to classify them by those "not very exact" denominations.

So I voted for Neither there.

you shouldn't try to put it into catorgories! Coldplay is just Coldplay!!!

I think its .. pop-rock? its definately not pop, and its not hardcore rock. Maybe its like Indie rock.. i dunno.. but whatever it is.. i'm definately liking it

Aren't Coldplay Alternative?

both

Yeah, I consider Coldplay and altervative band, so they're neither pop nor rock.

 

I'd hate to think of coldplay as a pop band!!! :stunned:

Seeing as there've been a lot of new members coming in, I thought it'd be a good idea to *bump* this thread :D

Indie................?

pop vs. rock

 

coldplay is soft rock i wouldnt call it pop otherwise u be comparing it to the likes of britney

Indie................?

 

Indie? Wouldn't that be a sub-category of rock i.e. alt-rock? :D

i voted for both

yeah pop is like britney or the backstreet boys...

hehe... coldlpay a pop band?!?!

 

If it's not alternative then it's light rock or something like that, but there still isn't enough guitar. So I chose neither.

i think is not a pop album because pop is the destiny child and that kind of stuff.i read that coldplay is set up a new genre which is the glum rock. i think x&> is a rock album not as hard as u2 and not as light as travis.but i think this is defintly not pop

Indie................?

 

NO.

Since Coldplay are not rock enough to be considered rock by some, what would you call Greenday/Blink 182's music? Rock or pop trash?
