These guys seem to get a bad rep, why is that? I love them... nice, wimpy, harmless pop rock! Nice sounding ringy guitars, catchy choruses, come on... they're great. Am I stupid for liking them, or do the rest of you abnormally brilliant IDMers like the as well? If you hate them, then why? |

I love both bands' ''wimpy, sensitive guy'' lyrics. And nice, nice overproduction, lots of candy coated guitars! |

Don't panic is a lovely song (coldplay) couldn't hack 'em for long though Travis are poo "Driftwood" is one of the most self-reverential, sneering pieces of snotty pap my ears have ever had the misfortune to endure . "you're driftwood; hollow and of no use..." Thanks, I really wanted to hear that, lads. |

No, it's not a windup! I love Travis, and I love Coldplay. I have all their albums, except Travis' first, which kind of sucks. Then they got into the ''senstive guy'' rock, and I like that. Their producer (Godrich?) makes purdy sounds. And I LOVE Driftwood, even if the sap can be cringe worthy! I love the music! |
||||||||

|
|
Ophecks > purdy ? sounds like a word Ross just made up in an episode of Friends , whassit mean ? sweet ? sexy ? cat-like ? Not that I'm complaining, I think its a kinda cool & Noisty word :) |
||||||||

Purdy=pretty! Jingly jangly guitars, lots of nicely, glossed over production. Not raw, that's for sure... Travis ain't GG Allin! |
||||||||
|

ok i REALLY don't like travis or coldplay, but i do like my fair share of... well... whatever the type of music is mercury rev kingsbury manx (excellent) supergrass doves dandy warhols (especially the dandy warhols) |

travis, coldplay, stereophonics bland bordering on offensive you've all been brainwashed! :P |
||||||||

Coldplay is not bland at all. It's subtle and wonderful. Travis I've heard too much off and am finally sick of. Seen them live three times and when I was asked to go when all my mates (about 15 or something) were going I just couldn't put myself through all that "niceness". Travis' first album is just a compilation of rip-offs of Oasis' track "Digsy's Dinner" except not really that great and Fran's voice gets REALLY annoying when he groans. I can still listen to The Man Who sometimes though, it's got some really melancholy tracks unlike the new CD which is all happy days and singing la la la. |

I love Coldplay, and think Parachutes is a fantastic album!!! Travis however is alright, but nothing more... The Man Who has some good songs, but a lot of crap... I like The Invisible Band better... |
||||||||

I like Coldplay. I have heard "Parachutes" and I enjoyed much. |

I don't think there's anything intrinsicallly wrong with Travis or Coldplay. They're quite "nice", and they're certainly better than the glut of God-awful shouty American "nu-rawk" bands that seem to be doing the rounds nowadays (Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Slipknot, etc). I fucking hate that shite. |
||||||||

|
have you checked out the doves ophecks? i just bought their new album, quite nice..the lead off single "there goes the fear again" is great |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Wow, I think Travis is better than Coldplay... apparently I'm the minority. The Man Who is one of my favorite rock albums of the last few years. I didn't like The Invisible Band nearly as much. And I'll check out the Doves, Ross, whoever they are... first I've heard of them, I'll look them up. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think you may quite like them :) are you a fan of new order? some of their stuff (like catch the sun) has a kinda new order-ish feel to it imo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love the song Regret by New Order... fabulous song!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
does anyone remember the song "Ain't No Love, Ain't No Use" by a dance act called Sub Sub? Well Doves is exactly that band minus the female singer. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sub Sub have a great track called 'Past'. Look it up. Its not like Ain't No Love; it guitars and beautiful. I wouldn't bother with the new Doves album; I took mine back in tears of disappointment. Their first album 'Lost Souls' is a fuckin masterpiece and pisses all over boring indie trite like Travis. I've been plugging Doves here for ages and am glad to see someone else digs 'em. |

the latest Q article described them as looking like binmen. In the same issue they said that of the old Oasis line-up. Must be their mot du jour. |

funkmaster, one of my favourite new order songs :) jonesy- i understand what you're saying..it seems a bit polished in quite a few places..i really don't like the track "words" either...but there goes the fear, pounding, sulphur man and satellites are reason enough to keep it, i think it'll grow on me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Why Does It Always Rain on my is an amazing song imo... one of Travis's best, along with Safe... |
||||||||
|

doves are pretty good as are mercury rev and I just saw kingsbury manx live 2 weeks ago. it was pretty good. i however dont like travis or coldplay at all. they are better than most of the crap that people like though. |
