I'm a huge fan of Coldplay (I saw them in 2002, and on Aug 20th, I see them again. :) ) but I was also disappointed with X&Y. Chris Martin's high-pitched voice, cliched lyrics, synths.. I wish Coldplay would go back and did what they did with Parachutes.
And saying that Coldplay is better than Radiohead is like saying Oasis is better than U2.
I was also disappointed with the production. I wish they would go back and do what they did on Parachutes and on A Rush of Blood To The Head. After listening to X&Y, I had to go back and listen to A Rush of Blood and Parachutes to remind myself why I love Coldplay.
