This. Feels like Coldplay is way more educated than many of these acts. Just a bunch of stupid teens everywhere, who will never achieve as much as Coldplay.

Y Yes, I agree HFTW and AOAL are pop. :) To me it's funny when people say Birds sounds like The Strokes, but when it's a Coldplay song than it's pop.

Well, to me, yes it is.

I agree. It's not so poppy like everyone is saying. Birds is one of the best Indie/alternative songs. Def not pop.

Chart News ‏ WW sales: @coldplay, A Head Full Of Dreams 432,000 (1,654,000 total).

WW sales: @coldplay, A Head Full Of Dreams 395,000 (1,222,000 total). Very similar to Ghost Stories.

Still no Q magazine, Billboard, NME, HuffPost reviews on Metacritic, which were very postice. It's getting better :))

This time I have high hopes on NME review. They included A Head full of Dreams into top 50 albums of the year (35) and Adventure of a Lifetime into Best songs of the year (19).

So true. Noel Gallagher on Thom Yorke "I’m aware that Radiohead have never had a fucking bad review. I reckon if Thom Yorke fucking shit into a light bulb and started blowing it like an empty beer bottle it’d probably get 9 out of 10 in fucking Mojo. I’m aware of that."

Xylobands and tunes will make those Americans love Coldplay.

Hymn For The Weekend.

It feels like I'm in a NME-like comments section or something. So much hate... I listened to the album a lot of times by now and will try to say my word. 1. A Head full of Dreams - This one is a nice opener. A mix of classic Coldplay and U2. Slightly better opener than Hurts like Heaven. I really enjoy Jonny's guitar work on this one. Maybe ending is a bit too long. 8/10 2. Birds - One of my favorites of the album. Can't remember a similiar song Coldplay has ever done. Very Indie rock style. Again amazing guitar work. It's a bit difficult to understand what lyrics at times, seems like Chris's voice is muted. Reminds me The Strokes. 9.5/10 3. Hymn for the Weekend - Do not understand the hate about this one. It's the best song of the album. That piano intro is wonderful, feels like Homecoming, wich was a good song. Beyonce fits very well. We'll shoot across the sky part is perfect. Got to admit a was drunk whet i first listened to this song. And yes.. I was high. Perfect pop song. 10/10 4. Everglow - Very beautiful piano driven ballad. Not much I can say about it, just a simple and nice song. Classic Coldplay. 8.5/10 5. Adventure of a life time - Disco-rock, Daft Punk influence. Amazing guitar riff. Happiest song of the album. Best first single since Violet Hill. 8.5/10 6. Fun - Seems like a song from Viva era to me, just poppier. Maybe the weakest song of the album. Very nice melody though. 7/10 7. Kaleidoscope - Coldplay does the best transitions to the songs. Though i dont think we have to rate them. 8. Army of One - Again one of my favorites. Love the drums. Relatable lyrics. Indie pop feel to it. 8.5/10 X marks the spot - Just proves that Coldplay can write all types of music. And be very good at it! When I listen to this I imagine Coldplay just jamming it studio and having a lot of fun. Kinda angry feel song.. Just a result of experimentation. 7.5/10 9. Amazing Day - Very nice song. Classic Coldplay sound. Would fit well into AROBTH. Sootheing. 8.5/10 10. Up&Up - Best closer since Death and all his friends. The ending guitar riff is perfect, maybe best of Coldplay, thanks to Noel. Prefer live version though. 9/10 This album has some kind of special feeling when I listen to it. Very diverse album. Could become one of Coldplay's best. Definitely better than MX and GS. Overall - 8.5/10

The Strokes influence at the end

This song has everything! will be a massive hit.

I'm loving it! One of my favorites of the album :) and Hymn for the weekend is 10/10 song.

I'm loving it! One of my favorites of the album. :) Also Hymn for the Weekend is gonna be massive!

Yes, I remember everyone was unhappy and thought Viva was too poppy. And now a lot of people agree tha Viva was one of the best and the most experimental Coldplay album.

Sveikinu su prasidėjusia nauja era! Kaip jums 'Adventure of a lifetime?' :) kitais metais bus turas, yra planuojančių vykti į Varšuvą? (netikiu,kad atvyks į Lietuvą..).

like someone mentioned, we might get a Daft Punk kinda song :)

Here's what Niall Doherty from Q magazine just tweeted 'New Coldplay music tomorrow. It's a groovy bastard, get your dancing shoes on.'

Really love what im hearing! kinda rock

Actually Amazing Day always sounded to me like album opener or closer. And that title 'In My Arms'.... remember Iheart Radio performance of a Sky full of stars, where Chris sang: 'All I wanted is right here in my arms 'All I wanted, right here in my arms'. Might be true, might not.

my guess is that the first gif is album artwork ( 'cos obviously posters in London and other cities promote actual album cover), ant today's gif is a lead single artwork. And i want to believe that tomorrow we'll get to hear the first single :)

Seems like we're not getting single today. Monday is my guess :)

I still believe, we'll get the single in one week time and album release on December 6th. Almost 3 weeks after Adele album release will be enough to move her from the top of the charts. :viva:
