For all you Coldplay haters, eat it. Their new disc, “Viva La Vida and Death to All His Friends” just released today. This album is really, really good. Heads and shoulders above X&Y. I’m honestly not a Coldplay junkie, I’m just interested in people who write them off because they’re popular in giving them a good chance. This shows some solid growth from the band, without destroying what makes them Coldplay.
I can prove it…
Just click the play buttons, this is the full album in it’s proper order.

Whaddya think of the new disc people? Especially you, oh Coldplay hater.
Sorry, i’m no coldplay hater, but i looove their album! There is a burst if pure genuine creativity in this album and at the same time they manage to still keep some of their original style! I think the best tracks are ‘Violet Hill’, ‘Viva La Vida’, ‘Death and All His Friends’ ‘Lost’ and ‘Strawberry Swing’ I’m definitely going to buy this album… or ”die tryin’
@Jack: I agree my friend. I think my favorite track is ‘Lovers in Japan.’ I also dig the way they were able to maintain their sound; but evolve as a band and venture into some newer territory. Glad you like it!
Hey- thanks for letting us check out the tracks before buying the album!
Sure thing! I think it’s worth the purchase = )
Thank you so much for this. I wasn’t a Coldplay fan until I heard thier amazing song ‘ Viva la Vida’, it has opened my eyes. Thank you again.
Luke. Right on! Glad you’re into it.
Like all Coldplay albums, I didn’t like it as much as the album before. However, like all Coldplay albums, after a while I ended up liking it more than the previous album!
Best tracks: 1 Viva La Vida 2 Violet Hill 3 Lovers in Japan 4 Lost
This is so rad! I love the new band links.
Love how they changed their sound but still were able to keep their classic Coldplay feel in every song. Going to see them in concert tomorrow, can’t wait!
Thanks for this Josh – I still have not got round to buying the CD yet – i need to soon – am going to see them in Barcelona on the 6th September. I think this is a fantastic album – the boys have done themselves proud. The pressure was on after x & Y (which personally i did not think was that bad) but they have come up with the goods once again.
Hey its the chris martin band!
Fucking Great!!!!
