Advantages: One or two really great tracks

Disadvantages: The rest are rubbish

Coldplay are a massive force in the world today. This London-born band have taken over the world since their forming in 1998. Selling over 50 million records all over the world, it could be argued that they are the single most succesful modern British bands.

At the start, this album looked promising. Songs such as Speed of Sound and Fix You heralded its arival with heartfelt lyrics, epic guitars, beautiful organs and melanchony pianos. These were truly great songs, and still regarded as some of the band's finest.

But then came the album. The album was, with the exception of a rare few, completely awful. Most of the songs seemed to have been composed in a few minutes and stuck on to the CD with bluetack, just to fill space. In short, there was alot o fillers.

I like Coldplay, I like their songs, their "ness", their previous albums. And while this one does contain some absolutely beautiful gems, I get the feeling that they are immersed in garbage. Overall, I feel that this album really does not do the band justice. If you're wanting a good album from a good band, I honestly dont suggest this one.

Summary: not their best work
