A Rush Of Blood To The Head - Coldplay Reviews

A Rush of Blood to the Head is probably my favourite Coldplay album, although I'm holding out for the new one- Viva la Vida- to overtake!! Coldplay are quite simply the best band on the planet, and every single song on this album is worthy of being released. People who say that Coldplay are depressing clearly don't appreciate good music and need ...

Hi. First of all, sorry about the awful title with the worst pun of the song title ever made. Oh well. Let me say that this album is pure gold. ( No, not real gold, because I don't think my CD Player would be able to take the weight...but anyway, I'm babbling ) This album has one of those outstanding things that ...

The year is 2003 and things have got so bad in the music world that the top 40 has no more than 15 manufactured artists in the current top 40. These so called entertainers haven't an ounce of talent between them and haven't had to work hard to where they've got to. This time next year, another fifteen will roll off the production line ...

I must admit that I was bracing myself for a slightly disappointing album that could never live up to Parachutes, but boy was I wrong! From the opening crashing beats of Politik to the euphoric ending of Amsterdam this is an album that will take you on a discovery through the best of modern day music. You've all heard the singles. From the ...

AROBTTH terrible watered down water - Advantages: None - Disadvantages: Radiohead wannabies, Terrible, Terrible Lyrics, Abismal repetitive musicianship

"Rush of blood to the head" is Coldplays second album since "Parachutes" Coldplay make vocal mid-tempo stuff with bass guitars, pianos and various instruments which could be classed as "eclectic rock", but its not. The album itself, like "Parachutes" which was a masterpeice, is almost ...

Its high time the highfalutin bands start packing and go back where they came from. The so-called “celeb” music and things like that will meet their doomsday. Things change. I’m glad there’s Coldplay --- for genuine music fans with no-nonsense substance and austerity in their music. Starting off with “Yellow” as ...

COLDPLAY - A RUSH OF BLOOD TO THE HEAD There comes a time when every music genre becomes saturated. For indie music this saturation seems to be more apparent with every down beat, bland, band churned out. After all there's only a certain amount of things four bored teenagers with two guitars, a bass and a drum kit can do. ...

OK. First of all, Coldplay have exactly proven the opposite of being a great band. "A Rush of Blood To The Head" is a nice album, but you can easily sense that there's been a lack of creativity on there. Many melodies are not round, they suddenly open at indefinite parts. (You get used to that when you listen in, but it should ...

Simply amazing. After the big fuss over Parachutes, there were those who doubted whether the follow-up would be any good at all. While this album doesn't exactly break any new ground, it serves as a progression of sorts by the band. A bit more introspective and wide-ranging than their debut, some of the songs on the album recall ...

The good news is that Coldplay have consolidated their billing as the shining lights most likely to. The downside is that they have yet to mastermind a revelatory record. While 'A Rush Of Blood To The Head' is never less than an interesting listen it has the unfortunate knack of repeatedly kicking in the headway it so eloquently carves out ...

This is definitely the most awaited record of the year, and I have to say, Coldplay really don't disappoint. Though highly derivative from the previous "Parachutes", "A rush of blood to the head" is a step forward, with a greater confidence in songwriting and the skills to keep off from the cliches of making a ...

In the months preceding the release of "A Rush Of Blood To The Head" the rumour mill was going into overdrive about both Coldplay as a band and Chris Martin as the focal point. In this tabloid culture we'd taken to gossiping about someone who really had no discernable personality beyond the "were just normal blokes" refrain ...

I'm getting my opinion in early for once. This probably has something to do with the fact I downloaded this latest addition by Coldplay whilst working late last night, so have a nice copy fairly early on, without having to pay [sorry lads from Coldplay? but you earn a fair whack anyhow, so I don't feel that guilty! ;-) ] I've ...

There's a school of thought that says you can get famous too quickly. To be honest most bands, slaving away in toilet venues and on obscure indie label probably wouldn't agree, but when the rush comes it pays to be ready. Coldplay perhaps present a case in point. Having barely escaped university, their fame snowballed quickly from a ...
