Coldplay's "A Rush of Blood to the Head"


I just got this CD from BMG music club. My copy seems to be overly bright, harsh and grainy. The more "acoustic" passages are listenable, but the "rocking" passages are crowded and indistinct. Does anyone concur with this?
Thanks.

Sadly more proof I'm not an audiophile-the music is decent no more than that but the recording seemed okay to me.
Hammergjh,
Read the fine print. I think the album includes a fold-out poster of a Gwyneth Paltrow. Still no takers?
I have the lp, it has always seemed agressive too me, I always end up putting it away after a couple minutes.
