New sound is great but.. anyone miss the old (Parachutes, etc) - Page 7

Here's something to keep in mind: The current Coldplay is the type of band they want to be. As Chris said, they are "obsessed" with making songs that can be sung to the stadium rafters. If the band had the money they have now when they made Parachutes, it would likely be very similar to what we're hearing on VLVODAAHF.

We do realize that if they released a Parachutes-esque album again, most of us here would be wondering why they couldn't try something new?

You know, anytime my sister hears some guy singing in a not so in-tune manner with a piano somewhere in the song, she calls it Coldplay-music. I think they were very well aware that they kind of created their own little genre. They wanted to bust out of that.

If you don't like it, that's cool...but it's just stupid to me when people behave like they want a band or an artist to keep using the same formula all the time.

I'll add just another thing to be a perfect statement: You'll always have the old sound, if you don't like Viva la Vida then dispose it and go and buy Parachutes
