zsub Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 it should be 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin Linus Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I think this should be a 4.5/5 I'm disappointed in this score. Then again, I never really had faith in RS for music reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluexylophone Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 this is definitely a 4 record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Cadet Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 No surprises then, I guess. Better than the 3 I thought it would get. Wonder what they have to say? There wasn't enough cowbell for them. :laugh3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ceci29 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 yeah, it should at least be 4.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApproximatelyInfinite Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 There wasn't enough cowbell for them. hahahaha, oh man. i think on LP5, there NEEDS TO BE MORE COWBELL :P i expected 3.5 stars, but i had high hopes. whatever, they're usually pretty good reviews; not nearly as snarky as other places. i do trust them on the most part, even though i do disagree on occasion. either way, i'm looking forward to reading it, and i think the painting that they're almost guaranteed to do could be nice too :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipoffools Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 VHV is at least a 4.5/5 star album, if not 5 stars. But since it's Rolling Stone reporting it, I'm not surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winigwl Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 the only album i've seen them give a 4 or over lately is my morning jacket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApproximatelyInfinite Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 and DCFC's narrow stairs. that was 4/5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lore Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 viva la vida is better than the DCFC album.... (and i really like death cab... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin Linus Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I love My Morning Jacket, but Evil Urges IMO wasn't a 4/5 record. Even if it was, Viva La Vida was a much better album. To be honest, I kind of expected better reactions for this album. I know lots of critics complained X & Y was "too much of the same" - and when Coldplay changed it up, well..I just thought they would be all over it. Oh well. It's the fans opinions that really matter. And from what I gather, most of us LOVE Viva La Vida. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApproximatelyInfinite Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 viva la vida is better than the DCFC album.... (and i really like death cab... ) i really REALLY liked the death cab album, more than most people, so i'm having a hard time saying which is better. i think they're about the same in terms of what they do for the artists and what they were trying to do... my point is that if DCFC got 4 stars, than coldplay should too, but i can't say i'm really complaining about the 3.5. that's the avereage for well-loved albums by the fanbase these days. i think this is an AMAZINGLY well-loved album by the fanbase, a loved album for most casual listeners and new fans, and a liked album by the critics. that's how these things usually work, and in that sense, i think that 3.5 is acceptable.

sacha88 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I can't say I'm thrilled but its still a decent score and hey they gave the new portishead album a 3.5 so at least coldplay is in very good company. Both are albums that deserve at least a 4 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
