I was negatively surprised when ETIAW appeared as single, but the rest of Mylo Xyloto was a very good album with really good songs, with a little bit of that pop direction but still being that rock music. Ghost Stories was incredibly beautiful with ASFOS as, again, that pop guilty pleasure. A head full of dreams in my opinion was an ok album, but not great. I love what they did in Everyday life, get away from the massive production and looking for the new spotify kids, even when I would not select more than two or three songs from that album for a top50 of the band. But listening to MOTS made (again, in my opinion) the previous albums masterpieces. Sometimes that happens because you need some time to understand and value a song or its direction, its meaning. Sometimes you just don´t understand what the hell a group is doing or why, and it takes a tour or another album to apreciate it. But other times what you though was ok becomes great just by comparison with the newest thing. In my opinion MOTS was ruined the moment the band wrote Higher Power 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earthling is way better than ❤️ though. I didn't know Good Feelings was that old. There is still a chance these songs make it to the musical though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original MOTS is far better because in my view it mixes the minimalist vibe of GS with the space vibe of X and Y perfectly whilst the released MOTS apart from IS/Coloratura is a let down 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you prefer Max Martin I guess as I'm sure those tracks you listed was written before Higher Power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under normal circumstances I would 100% agree but on MOTS the interludes are among the better tracks, I'm glad they're not attached to anything (MOTS2 not withstanding of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The biggest problem with Coldplay's fandom, specially those hating on their newer material, is overthinking. Everyday Life was made to experiment, MOTS was made to perform live. The band themselves said that. But then you arrive at places like Reddit and people are writing essays about how they are desperate for sales or becoming label puppets when nothing is ever that deep. Take the lashings My Universe received for example, all those sell out comments when in reality it was BTS who wanted and asked for a collaboration in the first place.

Jonan Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) So two new snippets... Although they could be MM songs for all I know, I allowed myself to listen to them, as they are snippets and not the whole thing. Maybe I suffer from Buckland's syndrome, relentless positivity, but I liked them both 😁 From Earth with Love's guitar is nice.

gustavothehuman Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) Completely unrelated to what I just said, but you guys would be surprised with how much South Korean groups love the band, American rappers too. From my experience in other music circles, they are mostly appreciated by pretty much every genre outside of alternative rock. Quite ironic, isn't it?
