Derpenstein Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Discuss Coldplay here. I've been waiting in anticipation for Mylo Xyloto to come out. From what I've heard so far it's their best work yet. It is a bit unfair, though, that Japan gets it tomorrow while the rest of us have to wait until October 24.

Legolover-361 Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Coldplay is amazing. At this point I honestly think they're my favorite band; songs like "Fix You", "Death and All His Friends", and "Viva La Vida" are super-awesome.Mylo Xyloto comes out some time before my birthday, so maybe I'll be getting it. Maybe. Quote (( BZPRPG profiles: Kynaera, Nova )) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toa Nidhiki05 Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 (edited) I have one of their albums, Viva la Vida or Death and all His Friends, as well as the song "Clocks". I really enjoyed Viva la Vida, particularly the title track, "Cemeteries of London", "Lovers in Japan", "Life in Technicolor", and "Violet Hill". Not my favorite group, but I've generally enjoyed their stuff. Is anyone else anticipating the Coldplay songs that are going to be released on Rock Band on the 18th? "Viva la Vida" and "Clocks" are the sure buys for me. Edited October 17, 2011 by Toa Nidhiki05 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Nidhiki05 Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I'm normally into heavier/faster stuff but I love Coldplay's slower stuff. The new album seems really promising, but I've only listened to a couple of songs so far. My favorite song by them would have to be Life in Technicolor. -ck Which version, the one with vocals or the purely instrumental one? -TN05 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XDI've actually listened to "Life in Technicolor" and "Life in Technicolor II" combined into one song. It wasn't released by Coldplay; someone edited the two songs together, and quite well, might I add.

I don't believe I own "Life in Technicolor ii", but I do own the original and it is one of my most-played songs. It's so good, it doesn't need any vocals IMO. EDIT: Found the video I was talking about, and it added 'The Escapist' (the hidden track at the end of Viva la Vida or Death and all His Friends, which basically is just the opening noise from "Life in Technicolor" with some lyrics) at the end as well. Really great edit. Edited October 17, 2011 by Toa Nidhiki05 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they'll either put the strings on guitar or keyboard. There is actually some mild electric guitar in the song if you listen closely, and the drums would likely just be the green and blue pads. It has a bassline, so that is set. They've released songs without guitar before (a couple Lady Gaga tunes, I believe), so I'm not really concerned. I'm just excited they are finally including it in RB.

Javi Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 So I'm one of those obnoxious indie people..but Coldplay's still one of my favourite bands. xP I've been waiting for a leak for months (I swear, I plan to buy it - but I really wanna hear it ). Wait..it releases in Japan tomorrow? I swear it was the 19th..pfft..ohwell. xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heat Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Without a doubt, one of my favourite bands. I own every album they've done thus far. My favourite songs are A Rush Of Blood To The Head, X&Y, Square One, Speed of Sound, and White Shadows. -Heat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varaka Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I love Coldplay, but I'm not liking the musical direction their headed. A friend and I were discussing the new songs and came to the conclusion that the songs are so poppy that Rihanna could be singing and you wouldn't know it was a Coldplay song. Sure enough, we later found out that Rihanna is a guest vocalist on one of the tracks on the new album. Go figure.As for a favorite song, I don't have one, but "Amsterdam" would definitely be high on the list. Quote [Minion of Swertboss] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klak Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I like Coldplay, though I haven't heard that many of their songs. My favorite out of the ones I've heard is "Viva la Vida".

Based Goomy Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 So Xylo Xyloto was released in Japan a few days ago, so naturally people in Japan (certian bad seeds) uploaded songs on the internet. Most of the files were terminated due to copyright, but I managed to download Princess Of China. It is anamazing song. Rihanna's vocals are actually superb. Quote Looking for a Voya Gold Kraahkan!

Mysterious Minifig Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I'm looking forward to Mylo Xyloto and I will probably be the first album I ever get right away when it's released. I don't really like the style of Coldplay's new stuff as much as I like their older stuff. There are some good songs on Mylo Xyloto, like Charlie Brown and Every Tear Drop is a Waterfall, but I don't really like the more electric style of their new music. I personally think their best album was Rush of Blood to the Head and I really like that more acoustic style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for a favorite song, I don't have one, but "Amsterdam" would definitely be high on the list. Totally agree with you there. I absolutely love some of their older stuff like Sleeping Sun, Don't Panic and (yay) Amsterdam, but this new stuff is really meh. As soon as I heard Every Teardrop is a Waterfall I knew I wouldn't like the album, and Princess of China and Paradise just confirmed that. Gotta say though, Major Minus is pretty alright. -FtC Quote I have an old Flickr account here..Previously Feefeeri/Felix the Cat..I MOC sometimes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legolover-361 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I must be alone in thinking Coldplay's earlier albums were only okay. Though, that might be because my mom played them all the time when she was in the kitchen... Parachutes was okay, but there weren't any powerful songs; 'twas all quiet and mellow. A Rush of Blood to the Head was better -- "Clocks", "The Scientist", and "Amsterdam" remain some of my favorite Coldplay songs -- but still, it was a really quiet album overall. X&Y fixed that, and Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends really made Coldplay stick in my head.

The Shouting God Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I like Major Minus and Hurts Like Heaven. They're the most memorable alongside Charlie Brown, Paradise and ETIAW.

Heat Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 So I finally bought Mylo Xyloto. Major Minus, U.F.O. and Up in Flames are absolutely brilliant.

Remember, they used Jay-J to great effect in their previous album with Yes!, and there are plenty of other examples of pairing up with another musical talent of another genre. It isn't a mole in the face of the band and a cancer that will grow, it's a sign of progression and experiment that showcases diversity. I think Coldplay used Rihanna very well.
