Review by BrettOh
“Man. I just want to keep listening to it. There’s so many layers to the music and the production style that different and subtle nuances of the album keep popping up.”
Review by Jill
“Coldplay makes me feel things(the bridge in ‘death and all of his friends’ was the first time I’ve ever experienced a musical sound that moved me, literally, to tears)”
Review by C. J. Healey “ZCT”
”Sorry Coldplay fans, but I hated this album. To me it took all the most annoying qualities of Coldplay and put them on steroids.”
Review by Jeff from the West
“After the 5 year wait, the hype, their past solid performances and current success of every teardrop is a waterfall, I am truly sorry I bought/downloaded this CD. I SHOULD have listened to the samples first, but didn’t think I needed to”
As for my personal opinion, I’m mixed about this new CD which I did not think I would be. I’m sure that the song Princess of China (Featuring Rihanna) will be completely over-played on pop radio shortly. Charlie Brown actually does remind me of Charlie Brown – which is impressive. Overall, I think with time – it will grow on me. Be sure to check out Coldplay Mylo Xyloto.
