October 26, 201114 yr A Rush of Blood to the Head is still the best. Parachutes and VLV ties for second, imo. I'm still waiting for that album that will top ARoBttH because MX isn't it by a mile.
October 26, 201114 yr Im also waiting to see if coldplay can top AROBTTH, it is such an amazing album! Its also the album that introduced me to them, so its very special to me and that makes it hard to see coldplay making something better. I really love MX though, I think it took over X&Y for my second spot of favorites, but then I don't think parachutes deserves anything less than second place for me. So MX basically screwed up on how i rank the albums :P the only one that I know is for sure my favorite of all is AROBTTH :D
October 26, 201114 yr AROBTTH / MX > VLVODAAHF / X&Y > Parachutes. With about two nanometers between each section. I can't vote. :P
October 27, 201114 yr mine is viva and i voted for that as that was when i discovered them, seeing the itunes advert with viva la vida blaring on it and i absolutely love the album, i could play it from start to finish without having the urge to skip a track. AROBTTH comes close though, then x&y and MX, then parachutes
October 27, 201114 yr AROBTTH is the only correct answer. Voting any of the other albums will get you a specific punishment that varies in severity depending on which one you voted for. Parachutes gets you away with a light slap, X&Y gets you a harder slap, VLV gets you a slap and then a bowling ball in the gut, and MX gets you the slap, the bowling ball, and a toilet swirlie.
October 27, 201114 yr Why didn't you like Viva, Corkus? I'm geniunely curious. Is it just because it didn't sound like Parachutes?
October 27, 201114 yr Why didn't you like Viva, Corkus? I'm geniunely curious. Is it just because it didn't sound like Parachutes? Viva was a huge mix of good and bad. Was my least favorite album to date but I didn't flat-out hate it like MX. It seemed like as a response to the accusations of Coldplay's formula being recycled, they felt like trying a bunch of random experiments to see if any of them took off. Adding strings and bombast was their new thing, as evidenced by the title track's success among others, which I didn't care for since the record didn't sound focused in the slightest. On the other hand, I did enjoy the cleaner, more raw efforts on the album like "Cemeteries of London" and "Strawberry Swing", and I guess "Death and All His Friends" was a nice enough track too. But I also really hated tracks like "Yes" and "42", which were also interesting ideas but far less enjoyable. That said, I think I'm one of the few people who far prefers LiT to LiT2.
October 27, 201114 yr Author R.I.P COLDPLAY 1996-2011 what the heck! seriously man. u aint no coldplay fan if u write that
October 27, 201114 yr why are some people trying to convince everyone everybody have their own taste in music for me IN THIS ORDER AROBTTH MX VLV PARACHUTES AND X&Y

As MX teaches us, we should worship those who stand up for their faith against their opressive environement. ;)
November 5, 201114 yr Author Corkus you're not a Coldplay fan anymore, so why still have this account :angry:
November 5, 201114 yr It's hard cuz I like all the albums, but i'd say 1 X & Y (I discovered Coldplay with this album) 2 Mylo Xyloto 3 Viva la Vida 4 AROBTTH 5 Parachutes
November 7, 201114 yr AROBTTH - I think even Coldplay recognizes it as their best work to date. Each song stands strongly on its own. In concert they often play more songs from this album than any other.
November 7, 201114 yr X&Y, undoubtedly. Corkus you're not a Coldplay fan anymore, so why still have this account :angry: There's more than the Coldplay section. ;)
