The Coldplay thread

Listened to the album twice. And listened to a few songs on their own a few times. This could very well be my favorite Coldplay album (I haven't heard X and Y).
I take back what I said about A Sky Full of Stars a while back. That song is beautiful, and surprisingly fits the album. True Love, Ink, Another's Arms are totally amazing too. They get better every listen. And I've really liked Oceans ever since the live version surfaced, the studio version is no different.
Overall, I'd give it 9/10. Nice mix of Electronic/Alternative/Pop/Ambient. I am absolutely in love.

I'd suggest listening to it at least twice before coming to a conclusion. Because it gets so much better on the 2nd listen itself. I'll do a track by track review after a couple more listens.

Also, why is O only 5:23? Am I missing something?

 

I listened to Always in my Head. I feel dirty. No more 'till Monday for me.

 

Traitors never play hangman.

 

Even if you do listen to X&Y, Ghost Stories is most likely still going to your favorite. X&Y is a great album, but I wouldn't think alot of people would put that album above the absolute Majesty that was unleashed today!

 

I'm assuming there is supposed to be a much longer gap between "Fly On" and "O" on the album itself.

 

iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin. will report back

edit: oh shit there is a visual?! woah. looks dope

 

Who does 2 visual albums for one album?

Thats right.

 

confirmed flop. Midnight was too good.

 

Track 1 is my favorite. It is always in my head.








That was worthy of being post #1700.

 

Another's Arms is so darn good. I think that's my new favorite Coldplay track. So beautiful.
6 listens into the album, I still think of it the same way. Amazing stuff.

 

There are a couple of nice tracks on this thing but overall I'm not too fond of it.

 

Just finished my first listen. Damn good album I'd say. Much more emotional and cerebral than their past efforts (at least the past few). There are many points here that I liked and I know with repeated listens I'll more of those moments. Solid effort by Coldplay!

 

Jon Hopkins did a remix of Midnight. Essentially, he did a remix of Coldplay's remix of his own song. SO META. It's remix-ception!

 

I hope you arent listening to the album.

 

I'm not! I can control myself now.

 

Good.

Imma listen to this album like a God on Friday. Watching the visual experience and reading Chris handwritten lyrics off my tablet.

 

Ghost Stories comes out on Friday in Croatia? It comes out in America on Monday.

 

No. But it does in some countries.

Friday is just the first day that school wont be killing me.
