March 29, 201511 yr if coldplay downgraded its not rihanna's fault, people here always blame her, its ridicolous if coldplay is mediocre now its their own fault, and lets all be honest, their production with GS reached a new whole level and dear god its 10000 better than VlV, the mixing and production of GS its one of their best ever. The only thing that needs to get better is not the sound, pop or rock or jazz or metal or whatever the instrumental rarely is the cringe-worthy part, the thing that needs to change its the lyrics. Princess of china was way too electronic for my taste plus coldplay doesn't need to collaborate with anyone else. The gs production was bland at times. It was nothing new. Viva la was was their most experimental and every song on album sounded completely different. It's brilliant. They had gotten even better with viva la vida, if you ask any coldplay fan, 9 times out of 10 they'll say viva la vida is the better album. GS and MX were ok at best. That's the truth.
March 29, 201511 yr I don't think anything that they have done is bad. Why does there have to be a "best"?
March 29, 201511 yr I don't think anything that they have done is bad. Why does there have to be a "best"? It depends on who you ask. It's just that some albums are better than others but no album is terrible, every album has great songs on it.
March 29, 201511 yr I don't think anything that they have done is bad. Why does there have to be a "best"? Exactly. There isn't a 'best' all LP's are all just artistically different. It's people's personal taste influencing the decision. [emoji165] It's like saying one particular flavour of crisps is better than another....some people will argue that chicken is the best flavour whilst others will be adamant that BBQ is....neither are the best they are different! ....personal preference. Imagine a world where everything was the same bland flavour[emoji17] Music is such a beautiful artform of creation and diversity.....all 6 albums are so very beautiful for there own very special uniqueness....[emoji93]
March 29, 201511 yr I don't like Rihanna either. No clue where that is going! Rihanna's ok, this version of princess of china is great. I'd like to hear more acoustic song like this
March 29, 201511 yr It's all a matter of opinion. Yes the majority might say that viva was their best era, but I say that MX was their best because of the ambition of it all. The xylobands were very unique and the whole tour was about color with the lasers and just having fun!

March 30, 201511 yr I can't wait to see what they wear for a head full of dreams era! Super excited! :D
March 30, 201511 yr LP7- "A Head Full Of Dreams" What's up with their FB page?.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
March 30, 201511 yr What's up with their FB page?.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk It's a for a new music streaming service called Tidal. It's run by Jay-Z. Google it.

March 30, 201511 yr Author maybe AHFOD will be released using TIDAL...? I mean, if coldplay is about to change all their social media and put some major push into advertising this music platform, it would make sense to use their music as an enticement

I mean, if coldplay is about to change all their social media and put some major push into advertising this music platform, it would make sense to use their music as an enticement it's not just coldplay. a lot of musicians have taken part in this campaign. if you ask me, this whole raising awareness with changing profile pics is a pretty lame campaign for a for-profit relatively new company. i mean all the hoopla about being part of changing the music history is ....

I don't blame Rihanna, there will always be genetically engineered pop as long as there is money to be made from it, I just think that Coldplay can do a hell of a lot better then working within it. When people mention her, it's usually as a representative of how Coldplay have become more mainstream and unimaginative. I honestly don't know anyone could think GS has better production than Viva - Eno brought all the colour and energy out of those songs. GS is very patchy production-wise IMO, Magic is great and clear whereas Another's Arms is completely dead and lifeless - same with Always in my Head. Lots of overproduction I think, stylish but unneeded. Agreed, the lyrics are cringed but I don't think Chris will ever be a good lyricist - Viva is as good as it's getting there I think. As to the sound, I think that pop styling are fine when applied to other things - they've never exactly been early Metallica but why not try things that don't sound like everyone else in the charts? Like Midnight for instance, the kind of electronica they should be doing IMO.

Hey, they're just trying to make you excited about spending your money! :angry: :lol:

Yes agreed every album has 'a couple of beautiful songs' ....even more...every album has LOTS of beautiful songs! [emoji122][emoji445][emoji5]️
March 30, 201511 yr I've heard almost every song coldplay has made and I can't dislike any of them. they can't make a bad song even if they tried. haha.
March 30, 201511 yr all of coldplay's albums are unique because each one sounds different. granted, some albums sound better than others but every album ALWAYS has a couple of beautiful songs on it. Absolutely, but they haven't done a truly above average album since Viva IMO. Hopefully AHFOD is a statement of intent from a band that is threatening to become a band defined only by "the early stuff"
