How Coldplay actually sounds

Yeah, imagine finding out your spouse cheated on you and not being able to go online without seeing it everywhere. Gotta suck for both of their partners
There are billboards on the road using the event as advertisement fodder.

what teenage sad-boys were listening to when they got bored of Radiohead and The Postal Service
I thought that was Snow Patrol.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]I got the impression they were more of what bro-dudes listened to when they were sad rather than what sad-boys were listening to, but only exposure to them was Chasing Cars. They seemed closer to The All-American Rejects than, say, The Shins or Interpol or any of the other shit I was listening to when I was my most insufferable teenage self.

I don't get why this is so big, wouldn't anybody be that embarrassed to be caught at a cold play concert?
I know, it brings shame on you and your family. I can't blame them

I thought Interpol was music for girls. Only people I knew that listened to them were girls who worked for Red Bull.

I was just considering modern Cage, a different beast.
Con air, face off and the rock. And all his movies that autocorrect doesn’t know to capitalize.

I don't know, maybe? When I was in high school the girls were all listening to emo. Once pop-punk went out of style (pretty much the minute Sk8ter Boi was released), most of the girls I knew pivoted towards Death Cab for Cutie or Dashboard Confessional. I was having a sad-boy period and other sad-boys I knew got me into Radiohead, Interpol, Coldplay (again, those first two albums), the Shins, and the Strokes.

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.
I would say at the time they were solid good. They weren't technically very complex but who cares - half the bands at that time barely even played instruments, just banged out power chords and yelled into a mic. As far as pop music goes those albums were great in my opinion. Wouldn't talk about them in a music theory class, but we were lucky to have such solid albums getting radio play.

Is Coldplay the American Tragically hip? Im Canadian and the tragically hip has to be the most mediocre, boring, forgettable band in Canada. I would say overrated but that’s the thing, tragically hip were gone and forgotten and not a single Canadian ever said “they’re my favourite band!”
Then the lead singer became terminally ill and ran a final tour and suddenly everyone i knew who had never once listened to their music in decades was all “BEST BAND EVER”
Except Coldplay isn’t dying, but I do find that I can’t ever find a person who likes Coldplay beyond having one or two of their songs as their Spotify filler that they often skip -
Certainly not worth fighting for.
Or getting a divorce for.

That's certainly how I feel about Parachutes. Solid little album, even if it's not reinventing the wheel. I feel more mixed about A Rush of Blood to the Head. Some of their best tracks are on that album (The Scientist may be their best song), but a lot of it is forgettable, and Clocks just sucks, don't know how that became a big single. I thought X&Y was pretty meh, and then I stopped listening.

Radiohead has been parent music for awhile now gtfo
Radiohead is 10 years older than Coldplay so i really don't understand this

Meh. There’s by far more mediocre bands with some fame than Coldplay. At least Coldplay isn’t one of the “hype” entertainers like Bieber that need constant press coverage to stay relevant or a band that will play anything and have no real sound of their own like OneRepublic.

You're quoting 2 Broke Girls to give cultural critiques to Coldplay?

Maybe this is why they thought nobody would ever find out.
Don't know what's worse, being caught cheating and becoming a national meme because of it, or having it happen during a Cildplay concert.

Idk why people shit on Coldplay, they sound fine
Until these two fuckers basically all I knew about Coldplay was they're probably the ones who did that song about apreggios called Clocks.
