    From what I understand, Coldplay was what played in suburban minivans 20 years ago when the drivers were driving their kids to taekwondo practice.

    Also, apparently they’re the one band that’s not officially Christian Rock that’s huge with US Christians.

    Why are they so big with Christians? I've seen that too and can't explain it

      At this point you have to specify which old era, I'm going pre 2004.

        I can't tell if this is sarcasm, so I'm gonna answer genuinely:

        The two people in the pic are having an affair, that's the Astronomer CEO Andy Bryon and his Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot on a kiss cam, and they hid their faces once they were on the Jumbotron.

        Astronomer CEO

        If this is PR for Astronomer then somebody deserves a raise.

          The first 3 minutes of Wild at Heart are the best Nic Cage performance ever imo

              Part of me continues to be jaded that Travis came out the same time and are the clearly superior band and did not make it big.

                Coldplay is like depression in music form, but mild compared to The Fray.

                  Coldplay was termed Radiohead for your parents. I think that was accurate for their early career but now they're more like EDM for your parents or U2 for your great grandparents or something.

                    Honestly yeah, I'd never heard of this company before the whole viral scandal and memes.

                      Cut Coldplay some slack, this was the funniest thing that's happened in a while. Plus, Parachutes is...fine...A Rush of Blood to the Head has a couple of good tracks. Everything after that is pretty trash, but those first two albums were good to mid.

                        20 years ago they were what teenage sad-boys were listening to when they got bored of Radiohead and The Postal Service (and I mean that in the nicest way possible). Then after X&Y they kinda became electronic/synthpop for the clinically depressed.

                          Because they are generic and don't curse.

                              He was forced out of his role, and his wife removed her married last name from her socials.

                              So it doesn't seem like a ploy imo.

                                  I dont love them, or ever even hit play on them myself, but that is true of a lot, if not most good music. And when I hear them on the radio, yea, its def not bad music.

                                  Meme still funny tho. They are suburban mom pop.

                                    Of course, the arrow of time remains unchanged.

                                    But what did change is the type of music Coldplay made. They went from Radiohead-lite to whatever you want to call that crap now.

                                          Coldplay is for people who think they enjoy high art because they watch period costume dramas about the Victorian Age. Because that's what high art is, isn't it? Stuffy settings and dialogue, delivered in a bygone accent.
