Stumbleupon'ed this today - in honor of their big #5, this guy put together a great tribute by reviewing their 4 albums briefly and talking about... well, how awesome they are :D had to share!

Great read. It's good to see he ain't a generic 'trying too hard to be hip' journalist/music fan (aka the Pitchfork crowd)

 

Those people - with not a single pop song on their ipods because they are too embarrassed are absolute fucking ******s.

A great read indeed. Wow.

Really enjoyed it, the person was really quite spot on when he described VLVODAAHF.

Thanks. Finally, we needed that. They get loads of shit for being great.

 

Does anyone know where or when Chris Martin said he's an 'alltheist'?

Never heard that word before, but it's brilliant. I'm gonna steal it, because it captures my religion. :sneaky: Sure Chris won't mind, will he? :kiss:

October 6, 2010 Urban Word of the Day

A person who tries to claim ties to every religion out of fear of picking the "wrong" one. This in turn forms a paradox because some religions, such as Hinduism and Judiasm contradict each other as the former is polytheistic and the latter explicitly states that there is only one God.

 

A typical Alltheist may believe in Jesus, Hindu gods, and even the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

:laugh3:

^ Oh. :laugh3:

It's ok Chris. The Flying Spaghetti Monster is very inspiring.

 

I think (hope) he ment being open to all religions, not necessarily believing everything. Or just aspects of different religions.

I'm sticking with alltheism. And I'm ignoring the urban dictionary.:P

Great read, he summed the albums up very well.

Great article. I also read an amazing review of an amazing album, High Violet by The National.

it's at the very bottom of this article:

^ Aah thanks a lot!!

I take it he didn't get that from the urban dictionary, since he said he made it up himself. :lol:

NICE article as well, from the Independent. Featuring another walkout even. :) Really interesting character, that Chris. How can you not like him?

Excellent article. I can tell that this guy's an honest Coldplay fan--not some journalist who listened to each album one time and spewed out some random praise. :thumbsup:
