Lore Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Best is subjective (I would not say that they are), but they are argubly the biggest band in the world right now. U2 is bigger than coldplay right now. Radiohead too I think, even if I hate them D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
an angel Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Why are people always complaining? Its to long. I dont like ETIAW! CAR KIDS DIDN'T MAKE IT? They're new style is strange... For gosh sakes, your on a coldplay FANsite. You are the ones who took time out of your day to write a post or make a thread about your favorite band. Why not just go with the flow? I understand criticism, but sometimes it goes a little to far people. I love Coldplay more now than I ever did... They just finished their 5th album and I can't wait to hear it. :dozey: Learn how to English plz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rainplay Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 U2 is bigger than coldplay right now. Radiohead too I think, even if I hate them D: U2 yes, Radiohead.. Ehh not here at least... I was talking music with one of my friends like yesterday, talking about what concerts I was gonna drag her to, and told her Coldplay and Radiohead..And she said "hmm radiohead..are they opening for coldplay?"

Kiame Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 I don't mind someone being critical, I just can't stand arrogance. I've seen a few posters quite blatantly declare that many of the songs on MX are objectively worthless and that they could do better themselves. Yeah, that doesn't sit well with me at all. Really, all they are saying is that they are fans of indie rock and Coldplay don't play indie-alt rock anymore like they did on Parachutes. But they are saying it in such a damn annoying way.

Constructive criticism is the way to go. Not just attacking it. Yeah, I saw that guy's post, too. Who the hell says that they're better than someone else at anything? I doubt if Coldplay heard some 3rd graders' recorder concert they would say "we're better than this crap!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Leo Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 It´s disheartening to see the word objectively being thrown around...when it comes to music, I really can not see how anything can be objective and can be proven scientifically. Again I know this might hurt some people, but your opinion is really only just that...your opinion. Argh again comparison with the Beatles! hehe No other band was in their position to revolutionize music history, so any direct comparison would be very unfair I think. I have seen Coldplay being described as the biggest band in the world in nearly every article I read. Apparently it´s something a lot of people think. Maybe it has something to do with their sales...if you sell more than any other band, then you are automatically the world´s biggest band. I do not have numbers to prove this, but it is my guess as to why they got that title. I really don´t care either way as I don´t need them to be the world´s biggest band in order for me to like them...(although great success gives great artistic freedom so for that I am grateful on their behalf) I agree with constructive criticism, which I interpret as a criticism directed to the song , without pretending to know best and without dissing other people for thinking differently.

Tryptophan Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 It wouldn't be any good if everyone here agreed on how great everything is they do. Some discussion is important. Myself, I'm a fan especially of the older work. Viva (album) pleased me a lot, but I just don't like the MX direction. Most of the new songs I've heard aren't really my taste and don't compare at all (in my point of view) to any pre-X&Y stuff. Doesn't mean I would do better. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new songs might not fall into everyone´s tastes but can´t really be compared to anything that came before... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imke Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Yep Constructive being keyword. I am seeing alot of attacking though, that's why I made this thread. To complain about the attackers, not the constructive criticism. That goes both ways though. If you automatically scream HATER at everyone who dares to criticise, then you're no better than those who criticise unconstructively. What's with the MX lovers? There's always going to be people who will not like something, they have a right to express their opinion and as much as you as a fan have the right to simply post "HOLY SHIT THIS IS AMAZING!!! I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!" they have a right as a fan to post "THIS IS CRAP, I HATE IT!". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Osaka Sun Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Is it just me or is Mylo Xyloto released in late October? :rolleyes: Why are we fighting about the album now? We've only heard two songs in their official form (Major Minus could be updated) and one 30-second clip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
