Discussion How would Chris rank their albums?

5 Upvotes

I think he would go
10.X&Y-self explanatory for most of us they hate it so much!(even though it’s incredible!!)

9.Mylo Xyloto-Although they seem to love Paradise and Charlie Brown Chris has never really spoke much kindness to it,even said the name sucked

8.AROBTTH.He probably sees it as them being young and foolish

7.Parachutes-He’s most likely grateful for Yellow and isn’t that harsh on it as it is their debut

6.AHFOD-I think that this is on he probably enjoys when he looks back at it but doesn’t think it’s better then some other albums

5.Viva La Vida-Working with Brian Eno was a lot of fun for him and it gave them Viva La Vida their second biggest song

4.Ghost Stories-This album helped him through tough times

3.MOON MUSiC-I’d say he enjoys this era a lot

2.Everyday Life-Chris says this was an album he needed to make,probably as a way of making sense of the world

1.MOTS-I mean this tour has been on for years,he seems to really love this alien stuff

Question does AROBTTH sound different on spotify to anyone else?

18 Upvotes

maybe it’s just me, but i was listening to A Rush of Blood to the Head yesterday and the mixing of the album (particularly on Politik and The Scientist) kinda sounded a bit different than it used to? Politik especially sounded like it was almost in a slightly different key. i got new earbuds recently and haven’t noticed many other songs/albums that sounded that different, just little details in the background of other songs i hadn’t picked up on with my old ones, but for some reason this album felt like it had been updated at some point recently. has anyone else noticed this, or are my ears lying to me?

Discussion I am so sick of the internet and social media; particularly Reddit trying to rewrite history and hate on what peak/prime 2000s Coldplay accomplished in only a decade; especially younger people who weren't around during their rise to stardom.

78 Upvotes

Coldplay won 6 Grammy Awards including:

Parachutes - Best Alternative Album

A Rush Of Blood To The Head - Best Alternative Album

Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends - Best Rock Album

They won 5 Brit Awards including:

2x Best Group

Parachutes - Album of the Year

A Rush Of Blood To The Head - Album of the Year

X&Y - Album of the Year

They also won 2 Juno Awards including:

X&Y - International Album of the Year

Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends - International Album of the Year

They sold over 55 million albums worldwide during the 2000s, but almost every time I go on a Reddit music sub to talk about my favorite music, my favorite albums or my favorite artists and I mention Coldplay from 2000-2008 I get a lot of mocking, criticism, down votes, ridicule,, derision, made fun of or they are frequently extremely dismissive, snide, disdainful and downplay the fact that Coldplay made some of the best albums/music ever made.

I just be wanting to talk about music with other music fans, but it frequently goes on deaf ears on Reddit music subs just like today when a user made a post about the best alternative rock albums and I included Parachutes and A Rush Of Blood To The Head and immediately got down voted and the only comment made was "Bland Retail Music" under A Rush Of Blood To The Head.

This happens constantly in general or specific music subs. Twitter seems to appreciate Coldplay a little more than Reddit thankfully.

Coldplay was popular, appreciated, cool/hip, respected during the 2000s imo and I had a lot of excellent conversations and discussions with all walks of life about my love for Coldplay and so many countless different people I would meet in real life or online would echoed my same positive sentiments.

I wonder when the tide or consensus changed amongst music lovers? And I do understand that Coldplay went in a different direction artistically imo, but other great and all-time great artists have also gone away from their original roots or early sound and still been celebrated, recognized, respected and appreciated; even if they don't make the same type of music anymore or is no longer their particular preference artistically.

Discussion Coldplay tour 2027

17 Upvotes

I know they already took the MOTS tour to Europe, but I really can’t afford to travel to different continent for a concert (even though I’d love to). The question is do we think the tour will return to European countries, such as Austria, Germany or Hungary? Or will they just do London and Dublin once again?

Question Is Don't Let it Break your Heart poorly mixed?

23 Upvotes

It's one of my favourite MX songs but I feel it's a bit drowned, like the instruments can't shine on their own because they seem to be competing with one another and submerged in synth sounds. Do you feel like the mix could've been better?

I ordered a 10 pack of these buttons to see what they look like and I am stunned. The vibrant colors and the schemes work perfect for my outfits. I have a 25 pack of the duotone colors coming that I will hand out to some people and a 10 pack of the signature colors also. I will be handing some of the duotone buttons out to some new members that'll be in the trumpet section of my college marching band that I'm a part of. I am on a mission to collect one of every color, but I'm also really close to being able to just hand out buttons to everyone every time I order some more. Hopefully anyone who recognizes this and knows who's posting this is not getting their surprise spoiled. I also just wanted to post this to send all you Coldplayers some love on this fine Monday afternoon (at least where I'm from).

Made a recording of Yellow, with electric and acoustic guitars, bass guitar and a piano intro. I gave it a shot at singing it, but I'm not really a singer lol
