Hey folks! For the last few months I've been working away at a little Coldplay fan project I've decided to call Famous Old Painters. The goal was to build a nice looking resource for fans to learn about the writing and recording history of Coldplay's album songs. It's been a blast to make; hope you enjoy taking a look :)

    Wow, that's amazing! You should let the band know about it through their contact form or something!

    Amazing website !! :)

    Just one technical thing, on Firefox the text lines below the song videos break off in the middle and I cannot find the rest.

    And also, it would be cool if you could someday expand it to include the B-sides discography and possibly even unreleased songs.

    Very Good! I like the visuals and the random song selection is useful

    Yeah :) B-sides and rarities will be the next addition I reckon.

    Oh, that is cool!

    Saw this earlier on Reddit. Really awesome, and it's great to have one place where you can read the main stories behind the albums and songs. Great job and thanks for taking the time to make this!!

    I've finally had the chance to extensively look through the website. Like I said before, it is absolutely amazing! While reading, I felt like I was there with the band throughout their whole career!

    Thanks for the kind words! It was a fun project to build and I'm glad fans are enjoying it :)

    I know it would probably ruin the look of the site, but you should add advertisements on the page...especially since Coldplay tweeted about it.

    It is unbelievable! You get my vote for Fan of the Year for doing this!!! How many hours didn it take?

    Curious about what software you built this in?
