Coldplay name was previously reported in this list:

How come they're not in it anymore?

 

Because EMI sold Parlophone?

They're still in this list: http://www.emimusic.com/artists/

^ I guess EMI are slowly updating their websites :lol:

"Coldplay" isn't much better.

 

....it's genius compared to "Foals" one of the worst names for a band ever.

Could have been Starfish.

I don't really see why "Foals" is that bad, but then again I've never heard anyone use the word "foals" in a different context (not a native-English speaker).

How is Foals bad? It's not great or anything, but saying it's one of the worst ever?

We could put in a battle Foals versus Band of Horses. Which one would win?

Foals isn't a horrible name... But I think that Band of horses is better. Maybe that's just because i imagine a bunch of my little ponies playing music, but....

Band of Horses isn't bad either, being a reference to the music they play.

I just find it such a bland word and to use it as a band name makes it even worst.

Could have been Starfish.

 

Indeed it could have. Imagine when they did that Lost duet with JayZ what nick name they could have acquired......

^ Jay-Z... Starfish... Like Jayllyfish? :lol:

Who's a gayfish ? :sneaky:

You Know How I Know You're Gay? You Like Gayfish

 

Now it works

I wonder if they'll use unreleased songs from MX as bsides for the lp6 era..... Probably not but I'm still hoping for car kids

Doubt it but it would be nice just to have some b sides to look forward to like the old days.

I actually felt I got a shit deal with the last album. The final product was disappointing after waiting over three years and then we only got one b side and then a mere acoustic version of Princess of China ft bloody Rihanna which is just as dull and uninspiring as the original. It's probably a good thing because my expectations for LP6 is far lower because of MX. They churn out MX part II though and I think they may lose me forever. Chris Martin seems to be getting more irritating by the year for me especially when he's now talking and singing in an Americanised accent. MX seemed like a naff ego trip for him at times. There was not nearly enough from Guy, Will and Johnny and most of the songs seemed drowned out by needless overproduction (often an excuse to cover up poor songs).

typo? :shifty:

I can't really agree because MX is really good for me. It's different than other LPs but it doesn't mean that worse. I have no expectations about LP6, 0, because really I have no idea what different, new they can come up. Still I'm sure I'm gonna like it. They are so big right now that there is no need to proof anyone how good they are, so If someone doesn't like what they do, just don't listen to Coldplay anymore. There are plenty of other bands. They can't please everyone

^ That's exactly what I wanted to say but I didn't find the words :)

^^ You are sooo right :nod:

soOorry for being married to an American and being a member of the biggest band in the world which means a lot of trips and interviews, that tend to include America a lot (trips also explained by the previously mentioned fact)

but he still sounds British tho, idk where's the problem even ;)

When you compare a 2000 interview to a 2011 interview, his accent is waay less pronounced in the most recent one. However it is totally normal, and yeah i don't see what the big deal is.
