Coldplay: Cooler Than You Could Possibly Imagine

Date of Review:  Jul 29, 2003
The Bottom Line: More consistent than Travis and more accessible (and less snobbish) than Oasis--Coldplay is great contemporary pop.
Review: Late to the party as usual, it's taken until recently for me to join in the overwhelmingly positive round of applause lauding cool British band Coldplay. In all honesty, I'd spent the past year or two thinking them to be somewhat pretentious and...

A Rush of Blood to the Heart

Date of Review:  Mar 17, 2003
The Bottom Line: So this is Coldplay, eh? Not too shabby!
Review: Coldplay have always been one of those bands that I figured wasn't worth the time. I heard that it was slow, that it was soft, that it was "Radiohead lite". But there was just too much competition, until now.

I must say that the moment I...

Coldplay: Wake up to it, Go to Bed with it

Date of Review:  Jul 11, 2003
The Bottom Line: A Rush of Blood to the Head is a nice mellow album with simple likable lyrics that just seem to grow on you.
Review: A Rush of Blood to the Head is a nice mellow album with simple likable lyrics that just seem to grow on you. These guys have been compared to the Beatles with their release of Parachutes and I don't agree because they really don't have the diversity...

A Rush of Blood to the Head (2002)

Date of Review:  Nov 1, 2002
The Bottom Line: Wonderfully admirable second CD from one of Britain's best bands.
Review: I'll admit it, when I first heard Coldplay - in the form of their single Yellow - I thought, great another band trying to be Travis trying to be Oasis trying to be the Beatles. I mean, come on, some of the lyrics to that song are just plain silly,...

This One's For My Baby

Date of Review:  May 18, 2003
The Bottom Line: Give it time. I don't mean a week, I mean like a month. It's not all great, but most of it is, and that's plenty for me.
Review: Allow me to get sentimental for a bit.

I have a 15-month-old baby girl. Her name is Cassandra Lynn. She is my little pumpkin. Her mother and I both simply adore music, so it was a foregone conclusion that Cassie would love music as well--I...

A Rush of Fingers to the Keyboard

Date of Review:  Aug 17, 2002
The Bottom Line: More eclectic and better paced than Parachutes, and there seems to be more of a story behind this album... but not everything connects perfectly. Yet.
Review: Author's Note: I initially reviewed this album about a week and a half before its release, and since then my excitement about this album seems to have worn off a bit - Coldplay's songs are intriguingly composed but sometimes frustratingly vague and...

A Rush of Blood to the Heart (not to the brain!)

Date of Review:  Oct 5, 2004
The Bottom Line: Despite many reservations, if you enjoy beautiful ballads, you should enjoy this. If not you might want to look elsewhere. Mildly recommended.
Review: I really probably shouldn't enjoy this album even half as much as I do. Aside for being shamelessly unoriginal, none of the music here is exactly what I would call particularly interesting – especially as far as the non-vocal melodies go – and it...

Here are some other interesting songs

Date of Review:  Sep 2, 2002
The Bottom Line: An improvement on "Parachutes", interesting to listen to, more of a 3.5 stars than 4
Review: Coldplay seem to be one of the most understated bands around. They rarely say anything, and when they do they don?t exactly mince words. Their little spiel about free trade in the liner notes couldn?t be any more bland ? it?s a worthy cause guys,...

The Fine Line Between Creating a Distinctive Sound and Being Repetitive Blurs

Date of Review:  Feb 5, 2004
The Bottom Line: Listen to the radio, when you hear a Coldplay song, if you like it, you'll like this album.
Review: A close friend of mine recently became obsessed with the music video to "The Scientist" and after a single viewing of the video, I could see why. The music was haunting and the images that accompanied it was disturbing in a slow, drunken, foreboding...

Coldplay's Big Break

Date of Review:  Mar 24, 2003
The Bottom Line: A step forward for this rising young band, who definitely have a bright future.
Review: Coldplay's debut album "Parachutes" recieved high praise from critics, and all of my friends seemed to love it as well. I didn't seem to 'get' it however, and even though there were 4 or 5 good songs, and a couple of decent ones, the album as a...
