And even by some Coldplay fans. Its not that bad is it? I actually like it. I listened to it after i read some of the bad reviews about it and wondered what everyone was moaning about. It has some absolute quality songs on the whole album, like charlie Brown, Us against the world, Up in flames etc.

 

Obviously its no viva la vida but nothing wouldve beaten that album.

 

Why is it being slammed? Why are fans turning against them?

Will coldplay lose out due to this?

iTunes says they aren't!! The early reviews were really positive, the more recent ones are all bad!! I personally think it is better than VLV!

I don't think it's getting slaughtered, I'd say it's getting mixed reviews. Which is probably what they had to have expected going into release.

 

And no Coldplay will not lose out. They're fine.

You only have to see the latest poll results for fans' general feelings on the album. Very positive I'd say. However they will never please everyone all of the time no matter what album they put out.

 

 

Eh? What you on about? I would say much more positive from all I have read. Anyway if you like it then that's all that matters! Enjoy!

My way of looking at it is simple. If you like it, that should be good enough. I love it, I dont care what the haters have to say! :)

I think ive just seen the recent ones then. Ive not seen a single a positive review yet, i need to be helped in the right direction i think

According to Metacritic (which is an aggregate of "reputable" reviews), Mylo Xyloto's average rating is currently at 59%, the highest score being 8 out of 10. If the score stays where it is, then MX would be the lowest scoring Coldplay album. Granted, it's still a bit early as it only lists 18 reviews but the Metascore probably will be mid-60s at the highest.

Very true!

True! The haters do grate on me though lol, how they cant accept such good music is beyond me

There's been some pretty good reviews. Metacritic aggregate says that professional reviews are "generally positive."

I understand. I dont like what they are saying ethier, I just think they dont know what they are missing, and its their loss! :D

Haha very true! :D

I'm a proud hater. :D

The BIG problem with Metacritic and all those aggregate websites is that they do not include reviews without ratings... also even if its 100 reviews up there... that's just 100 people's opinions...

 

100 people who got journalism degrees and couldn't cut it in print so they went online, and because the pop culture section was already covered by Suzie Newsworthy, they decided to take over music. Cause hey they like music! And they once listened to half of Journey's "Don't Stop Believing" before they passed out doing shots while studying for their journalism final.

I'm a proud hater. :D

 

lol really? You dont like them anymore because of this album? What about the album dont you like?

I've posted a ton about it in the last couple weeks. You'll have to dig through some older posts. (I can find one if you want) But yes, I'm disgusted with nearly every aspect of the album and what the band has become.

Why are people so obsessed with reviews??? Just look at the album chart next week and that will be all you need to see!

IF YOU LIKE IT, GREAT!

 

IF YOU HATE IT, GREAT!

 

DEAL WITH THAT!!!

I can see your point i guess, they have changed, whether its for the better or worse, who knows

You'll love it in a couple of months. :)

For some reason I think your hating is funny, so I approve. And you give reasonable explanations instead of saying OMFGG POP IZ BAD.

OMFGG POP IZ BAD.

 

Well, it actually is :D

Ehhh you know what I mean.
