October 24, 201114 yr wait there's people who seriously think it'll get a 9.0+ from them? I voted that as a joke. it'll definitely be less than 5.0 VLV got a 6.9 which is high for a Coldplay album and there's no way this will top it. they'll write a very negative review
October 24, 201114 yr ahah, you can just tell that this 'journalist' is pissed off with coldplay :P -------------- Hearing for the first time the songs that will, inevitably and inexorably, become part of the fabric of Western life from X Factor auditions to shopping-centre muzak, is a strange and often depressing experience. Mylo Xyloto is already guaranteed bigness, by the very fact of being the fifth album by Coldplay. But it takes no chances. This is a record that browbeats and bullies you into submission with its sheer massiveness, courtesy of producer Brian Eno. "Hurts Like Heaven", the first song (barring the overture), sounds like LCD Soundsystem's "All My Friends" played by idiots in boxing gloves, and that level of subtlety continues through every synth-smothered second. At one point, unbelievably, Martin actually sings, straight-faced, "I'd rather be a comma than a full-stop". Strange. He has much more in common with a colon. http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/reviews/album-coldplay-mylo-xyloto-parlophone--emi-2374493.html

October 26, 201114 yr Was about to post this as its own topic, but I'll live with this, as I think I just heard the distant sound of a galaxy imploding. Their highest Coldplay score ever.

October 26, 201114 yr they are taking HARD drugs Well, that's probably the best-written review we'll get. I was looking forward to this one. I was expecting a really really really really low score.
October 26, 201114 yr Well, they're probably the best reviewers. just because they have given 7 to the new coldplay album :rolleyes: they are just a bunch of hipsters
October 26, 201114 yr just because they have given 7 to the new coldplay album :rolleyes: they are just a bunch of hipsters Nah. They consistently put out fairly reasonable reviews. Yeah they're hipsters. But meh. I'm use surprised it did better than RUSH. Really? ?!
