I just find a lot of Coldplay fans to be hypocrites. Now let me tack on the disclaimer that I'm just as excited for this album as you are, if not more. Sure I might not voice it as much sometimes, but I do like to stay down to earth. Coldplay is a top 40 tier pop band and it's pretty obvious that they don't have the best reputation. You "fans" will literally suck logs out of Chris, Will, Guy, and Johnny's assholes and eat it up. In other words, you're devout. Sure ETIAW isn't the best song in the world, it lacks a sense of lyrical depth and interesting instrumentation. You will wank other that song to kingdom come, but the minute the band is associated with one of their top 40 peers outside Coldplay's genre of music, be it Jay-Z, Rihanna, etc. you will rule it out as a pile of shit. In my eyes, that is hypocrisy at its finest. I'm not telling you to like Jay-Z or Rihanna, I'm telling you to open up your eyes and ears and view the music as it is. Whoever is featured on the track, whoever produces it, doesn't matter. Names are arbitrary. Look at the vocals as they are. It's not like you have their beats or their styles on the album. It's all the band, Eno, and Dravs in the end. Backing vocals aren't a bad thing. Duets aren't a bad thing.

Oh, so you're from the future? How did it sound? What's the album like?

Guys, it could have been a lot worse. At least we don't have Nicki Minaj getting her trash all over the album. It's not even a straight-up duet. Look at Arcade Fire's Speaking In Tongues. If they under-use Rihanna as much as David Byrne is on that track, then it's nothing to worry about.

Could be worse. Imagine Beyonce or Katy Perry or Ke$ha or Nicki Minaj (ewww) Notice how I didn't mention Lady Gaga. :|

I suppose it could have been worse. They could have chosen someone with a more eccentric voice though. You could get away with calling Björk chinese if you wanted (assuming these vocals are on POC) [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=617c2lvwkgU]Rihanna - Russian Roulette ( ACOUSTIC VERSION ) - YouTube[/ame]

the sun is lying :|

It's not like there's a female vocal all over the song, it's probably just the "la's" that the princess sings in the context of the song. :nod:

Hurts Like Heaven is in the bottom right corner of the album artwork.

Ih wah a wa-a-a-a-a-a-fail

Will Always Negates Defeat.

I honestly wouldn't mind it making an appearance as a b-side to one of the singles. But bonus track? Unfortunately no. :shrug:

:laugh3: I don't think he'll like it at all.

No. Modest Mouse

Repetition, Second Song, Killer Crane, and Will Do are all just so :dazzled:

:nod:

Second to Shiver. :nod:

I'll lol at all of them with Take Care is better than MX. :D Marvin's Room is beyond incredible. I've been listening to Nine Types Of Light a lot lately, I think it's growing to be my favorite TV On The Radio album.

oh my god oh my god oh my god. I haven't listened to Absent Friends in years. It was the only album by TDC that I've listened to, but it makes me feel so good. I'm having a major nostalgia moment. :dazzled: :D

It's important, sure. I just don't think that both sides of the album tell two stories, they might be contrasting moments of a whole. Major Minus would be the turning point.
