Mmmm, very nice... just bought it an hour or so ago, and have listened to it through once, and have started it again... very nice, sounds like after listening to it for a while I'll like it more than Parachutes (which I love)... interesting thing to, when I was at the counter paying for it, the guy put an extra booklet in the bag with the cd, he said the cd came with the wrong booklet... but yet they're both cool booklets, one has a picture of the band playing, and the other has the lyrics... interesting...
by the way, this is Coldplays new cd... :)

Well, i've said it before, but Coldplay are watered down Bends era radiohead.
Strangely enough, i like them a lot. The Blue Room EP is quite good, and i'm thinking about buying this new one.

The new album is stellar. A mate of mine bought it yesterday, day of release. I've download 5 songs and I definitely think this is better than Parachutes, even though that's an amazing album.
Of the 5 I've downloaded, Clock is my favourite. I've GOT to buy this CD.

I like Daylight and the title track. I haven't heard the last two tracks.
I've slowly gotten in to Coldplay, despite the fact that i think they're pretty derivative.

I've taken a liking to Coldplay too. Last summer I was obsessed w/ "Trouble".

I must say that there are some nice tracks on it, (the drumming is rather straight forward so it's nice to play along to it as well)

it is great..but parachutes is a masterpiece and i dont think the new one will be such a classic as that one.

the album is great, I think this is one of thos albums that steadily grows on you. I had the same with parachutes, where I loved 3 songs instantly and then came to appreciate the others to the same level as the first 3 later on. I don't think this album will reach the heights of the parachutes album though. I think that one had just a bit more emotion in it than this one.

I can already say (after listening to Parachutes at least 50 times since it came out) that A Rush Of Blood To The Head is better.
I'm going to buy tickets to see them in Munich with a couple of mates in November. Should be ace.
I wanted to see them live in Munich in December 2000 but they cancelled on the day and Starsailor played their first German gig (2 months before their first single). I was really impressed and bought their debut album but I find them rather dull now.
zaphod: The first time I heard Coldplay was in February 1999 when there was a free CD with Melody Maker which had "Such a Rush" on it. I thought it was the worst rip-off of Radiohead EVER, like a total copy of Exit Music. I still think it's a pretty weak song but I detested them when I heard that.
Shows how bands can grow on you.
