:D bump

Coldplay

Ummmmmm

Coldplay!!!

:)

i can't decide. both are wonderful but they're so different.

Radiohead have made some amazing material, there's no denying it, and i love In Rainbows and some of their older stuff too. But for me Coldplay are my number 1, i love them to death and they have won my heart and my soul :wacky: :heart:

Why Radiohead is the past

 

Radiohead, what have you done for me lately? Oh, right, you released “In Rainbows”- one of the coolest albums of last year. Yet it’s not the coolest.

 

There was a time when a Radiohead release was a shoo-in for album of the year. But lately the band isn’t as exciting as it once was. Compare anything off “In Rainbows” to “Airbag,” “I Might Be Wrong” or even Coldplay-template “Fake Plastic Trees.”

 

Radiohead has entered its “Zooropa” phase, while Coldplay’s firmly in its “Unforgettable Fire” growth spurt.

 

Let’s not go crazy. Creatively, melodically and lyrically, any Radiohead album stomps any Coldplay album. But that may change. Bands in decline rarely rebound - still holding out hope the theme song from “Armageddon” didn’t signal Aerosmith’s artistic Armageddon?

 

Radiohead became post-grunge’s first, maybe only, epic rock band, then banished the guitar crescendos that made it epic. But they still managed to make amazing, tech-y minor masterpieces.

 

Now the band’s filling in the spaces between epic and slight, organic and synthetic, guitar-fueled rock and Mac-made sonicscapes. Soon all those spaces will be filled in. Then what?

Why Coldplay is the future

 

Coldplay’s success attracts armies of haters. And it doesn’t help that Chris Martin has that wussy falsetto, a superhot wife and a kid named after the world’s most prosaic fruit. But Coldplay hasn’t given up the dream of transcending today’s pop into timeless rock art.

 

Purportedly the band’s “experimental” album, “Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends” doesn’t tinker too much with Coldplay’s established, superpopular, nonthreatening style. But there are amazing moments. “42” begins as a typical Martin piano ballad before crashing into an “Airbag” burst of jagged guitar and angry strings; salvation comes with a bright, upbeat, totally anti-Coldplay (and Radiohead) bridge.

 

From there the band repeatedly breaks with its Radiohead-lite formula: They pinch from the Beatles’ “Fool on the Hill” and “Lady Madonna” and delve into Eastern European melodies and neo-classical, Chopin-does-Britpop bits.

 

And let’s not forget. Every time you hear “Violet Hill” on the radio, remember what you’re not hearing: James Blunt. Don’t think there’s a difference? You gotta listen to “Viva la Vida” (or be reminded just how bad “You’re Beautiful” is).

 

It’s shocking, but Coldplay is one of the most dynamic bands on pop radio. And the band is getting more dynamic. That’s a good thing.
