nowayme Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Should we start posting the official instrumentals of the Album? I'm trying to fill the ones missing for the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 This album frustrates me. There a few gems on this and but the rest are duds. It's forgettable and unimpressive. I know the boys can do so much better because they are the same band that released Everyday Life not too long ago.Β I always have a Coldplay album on repeat when it first comes out cause I want to be in that glow of new Coldplay music. I didn't have that feeling for this album. This album just doesn't make sense to me. I thought EL was disjointed and messy but this makes EL art.Β Gems: ? People of the Pride βΎοΈ Coloratura Β Honorable mentions: Humankind Biutyful Β The WTF: My Universe Β Forgettable: Everything else Β Will do an album rank later but right now, AHFOD is winning over this one... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gustavothehuman Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 (edited) The reception this album is having genuinely makes me feel like crying, I'm probably will going to do it after publishing this actually. I know the band is not even seeing all of it and I definitely need to snap back into reality instead of obsessing over them but still. See you around my friends, I need to detach myself from the internet as much as possible for now ?

While I don't like the album much and agree with plenty of the criticisms thrown at it, there's been plenty of toxicity especially on the subreddit. In this forum people do hate it but at least they don't attack other people's opinions and respect what others think. But on the subreddit I've been seeing people getting downvoted for liking the album, even some who say its their favorite album get attacked and said that their opinions are a load of shit. I've gotten downvoted for for respecting their opinion. Again, I'm extremely disappointed in the album. But that doesn't merit the insulting of those who like it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MosesTheMarshmallow Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I would like to post album opinions soon but first would like to vent that I missed the verified fan presale deadline by 15 min thinking it was 11:59 et instead of 9 pm.

Even though I also agreed with some of the criticism. TheΒ problem here is that this isn't like AHFOD, which had a mixed/controversial reception, MOTS is panned, trulyΒ panned. And it all feels so unnecessary to me, people are writing the band off like they were f***ing Maroon 5 or something. Anyway, now that I'm done with my crying (it wasn't manner of speech, I'm feeling that awful), I just hope they can turn things around for the best. And no, the bandΒ doesn't need aΒ "back to the roots" bullshit: Coloratura was bold, brilliant and new, they're still capable of amazing stuff. So... that's it! See you guys around on Twitter or something, I need to leave my Coldplay-related things right now, for my own mental health's sake (and to be honest I already needed to get my shit together, seeing some of the people I love the most in this world being so hated was probably just the last straw). I know you guys are probably thinking I'm acting like a drama queen, but trust me, I don't have that hability.

The Jordanator Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Phew just read all your reactions and a bit disappointed about the snivelling little biutches that have to hate on the band. If youβre not a real fan then why are you here?? Anyways I rate MOTS an 8.8/10 which is my highest rating for a Coldplay album making it my favourite one ever after MX.Β I love it to bits! Only songs I can see wearing off is LSG and HH since the quieter sides of Coldplay I find a little boring but these songs in particular are actually quite nice. Humankind took my breath away what a surprise that song was!!! POTP is just epic and addictive, and Biutyful is not as cringe as I thought it would be itβs actually quite nice, like a tropical cocktail on a warm summers day. Here are my ratings: 10/10 ColoraturaΒ Humankind ? 9.5/10 My Universe People of the Pride Higher Power 8.5/10 Biutyful Let Somebody Go βΎ All the rest are 8.0 or below. Lowest rating is MOTS ii which is 6/10 because while it is random, itβs got a cool message and it uses the bands kids.Β 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nowayme Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I think people are over-reacting for no reason. If we speak with facts and the fact is that Coldplay is THAT BAND (if you know what I mean with my punctuation). They have raised sooo high the bar year after year that when they don't perform at 200% people critisize them. I think people hating the album is a very strong opinion since the content is not hate-worthy. Also people need to consider than maybe the reason that Coldplay is not performing the way they want in charts etc, maybe just maybe, they are to blame, not Coldplay. I can't tell the future but I know that listening to the album and it starts to grow on me which was the experience I had with most Coldplay albums anyway. Everybody needs to relax. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
United Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 (edited) I prefer MOTS to Ghost Stories and AHFOD. My top 5 songs from MOTS album are: 1. Coloratura 2. Human Heart 3. People Of The Pride Β 4. Humankind Β 5. Infinity Sign Edited October 18, 2021 by United 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarbageOffice Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 (edited) Yeah it's honestly not as bad as people describe it. There are a lot of exaggerated negative opinions and criticism that are pure hatred and nothing valid. I'm not that surprised to see some of it on the subreddit, but what I didn't expected was to find it here as well. Oh and please do yourselves a favour and don't read anything about coldplay or the album outside its communities, especially reddit. People are incredibly toxic and disrespectful. On a different topic, I went through Coldplay's discography again and there are a lot of songs that fit so well to the space theme - Aliens, Moving to Mars, Atlas, and almost the entirety of X&Y. The lyrics and the atmosphere fit amazingly well. I'll definitely try and make a space album from their whole discography later. Any suggestions?

I don't think it was written very well either; I think they're saying the band should (or will) 'flee' the album (try and forget about it, as if it never happened), and that at live shows Coldplay will just become 'another band', irrelevant in some way.
