Coldplay X&Y New Release


I just accidentally caught Coldplay doing a small venue relase performance on MTV2 of their new Album X&Y. All I can say if the energy I just witnessed translates into the studio versions of this new material, we are all in for a treat!

I have the previous 2 coldplay albums, and I'm rather lukewarm about them, I guess like Ben. So is the latest offering about the same, or better ? Or should I wait for it to turn up in the sale/used racks like I wish I had for the previous 2 ?
They have been described as "music for bed-wetters"...I would have to agree...Gwen is pretty hot though....
"They have been described as "music for bed-wetters"..."

Perhaps that's why I'm lukewarm about them ?
"I just want something I can put on and ignore."

Coldplay's monotonous droning serves that purpose well.

It seems that Coldplay wants to be considered "brilliant" just the same as many young people desperately try to be "cool".
