1. I don't know, I feel like since it's Coldplay everyone will still like it blindly while the die-hards seem to be the only ones that aren't in love with it. At least that's what it seems like here in Cali and on sites I see.

    I am going to love it, it seems to be their Zooropa, small album, minimal and a side-step to what they normally do. I welcome it and don't see where this "lacking innovation" comes in. Coldplay never try to be the most innovate band, that's a criticism for U2.
  2. I'm surprised how critical people are - I kind of like the new songs, especially the single. And I'm not a real Coldplay fan... or maybe that's precisely why I like the songs.

    Certainly I like the idea of making new good music.

    I actually quite like that comparison and probably don't disagree with it at all, Gen.

    May not end up being my cup of tea, but that's given me a tinge more respect for the move.
  4. I would love to have heard it performed in full this past week, front-to-back. Thats the only time I will judge an album before its released, when I have heard it the whole way through.

    In other news, the "Target Edition" with the bonus tracks was announced the other day.
    The Bonus Tracks are:

    All Your Friends
    Ghost Story
    O (Part 2)



    EDIT: Sorry the picture is rather large. If you want to see it in full, heres a link: http://i.imgur.com/e7oSdmf.jpg
  5. wow...sad stuff. Hope it's for the best
  6. I'm so sad
  7. I heard yesterday Ghost Stories is about things that have happened to the band in the past year. And today this happens... it's gonna be a dark dark album. Magic just took on a whole new meaning. Sorry for both of them, and the kids.
  8. All the music keeps in second plan when you're leading with something like this, so I wish a lot of happiness to them.

    That said, sometimes beautiful music is created during this process, so I hope Chris find joy in his life while making great music for us.
  9. Did you people not remember the rumours last year? And then have you heard the lyrics from the new album? It's only onvious Chris was having relationship troubles lol
