"There's nothing wrong as such with Mylo Xyloto. It just feels like, once again, Coldplay have done the selfless thing and gone out to protect EMI's shares." 5/10

macky · 19-10-2011, 06:01 PM

I will disagree with this. Mylo Xyloto is NOT an average album.

Major_Love · 19-10-2011, 06:06 PM

^Agree.
But thats the point if a big band like Coldplay changes their style so radical. There will be always people who find it shitty.

With regard to the lovely production and all the warm songs on the record like Us against the World, U.F.O., Up with the Birds and Up in Flames the review is nothing than shit in my view.

Saketblitz · 19-10-2011, 06:07 PM

I am not surprised. NME keeps posting Coldplay related article on Facebook clearly taunting the band and the readers there comment with all the hateful remarks in the world. Now,with this rating they will please all the readers.

Typical.

the_escapist · 19-10-2011, 06:07 PM

Actually they say that the have gone out to protect EMI's shares...

Unbelievable!

Tryptophan · 19-10-2011, 06:12 PM

I can't find the review. I'd agree with a 5/10 (as compared to the high Coldplay standards), but I'd like to see why.

Mimixxx · 19-10-2011, 06:13 PM

Is print only.

The blurb is from the print edition.

I'm sure it'll be out within the next couple of days.

NME? 5/10....must mean it's quality then! Come on guys these are the people who still think wish they were in the midst of Britpop. Desperate in hyping up Kasabian as the next big thing but they are nothing but a bunch of soulless louts. Thankfully I don't think many people are buying into their campaign. Serge Pizzornio claimed their latest album was "the greatest British album of the last 15 years'. Yeah Serge! When does your comedy tour start?!

^Yeah, but it's the lowest Coldplay ever recieved from them...

Yes. That man is deluded. He thinks he's got songwriting talent. But in reality he's just another generic indie faff arse.

Cleggy · 19-10-2011, 06:41 PM

A site who hates on Coldplay gives Coldplay a bad review.

As the Radiohead song goes...

Radiohead - No Surprises - YouTube

howyousawtheworld · 19-10-2011, 06:46 PM

Has anyone seen their "Coldplay's top 10 songs" video. How generic a list can you get?! It's an awful list.
