That's not true. if everything sounded like Coldplay, EVERYTHING would sound annoying. A great example would be Speed Of Sound ... which has been played a billion times on the radio.

I'm listening to Kaiser Chief's right now. They don't sound like Coldplay.
Too bad more bands don't sound like Coldplay. I love them.

I don't care if anyone hates me for saying so- Coldplay is a shit band. Their music has no redeeming factors whatsoever. It seems to be designed to appeal to middle-school-age girls, why anyone outside of that demographic would listen to them I have no clue.

I think you meant to say "Everything coldplay comes out with sounds the same" because it does.

I have been saying that for awhile now. Not necessarily Coldplay, but alot of "Modern Rock", sounds like one long song with a remix thrown in every now and then.

Actually, I was telling my friend the other day that every Coldplay song on the radio sounds exactly the same. Do they actually have a vast array of songs?

Everyone, listen to Keane.
Man, what shit bands mentioned so far in this thread...
Coldplay are easy-listening/elevator music. They're good at what they do, I suppose, but I don't find their stuff very exciting, and they rarely take any risks with their sound. I don't know why anyone would actually want to listen to any of their songs more than once.

It's hard to understand why the best bands the UK has to offer have done so poorly.
Hey now. Blue Room EP and Parachutes are very, very good. AROBTTH was decent but you could tell it was the beginning of the end, they were clearly following a formula.kablooey said:
Coldplay did try to branch out and try different things when I saw them live, but they obviously chose the commerical route and never put that on a CD.
X&Y is just a nightmare. I liked it at first but I was kidding myself really. I'd be really surprised if the band makes a comeback from even their second album.
Personally, I think Doves kick Coldplay in the ass. I can say this because they share the same producer. And Lost Souls came out a month before Parachutes did; Coldplay's debut has nothing on it. The Last Broadcast smears A Rush of Blood to the Head all over the floor, and Some Cities destroys X&Y.
To an extent I guess, Doves and Coldplay do share some similarities - after all they do have the same producer. The difference here is with each album Doves tries different approaches to songs (some are straight up jazzy massive attack-ish songs like Calm Before the Storm). Coldplay does not do this. They just play the same 5 reverberated notes over and over and over and over while Chris Martin oooh and ahhh's his way through the songs.
Doves is trying to branch out, Coldplay is sticking to the formula to stay popular. It's not going to last that much longer. Next U2 my ass. Let's see where Coldplay is three albums from now. It will either sound like crap and won't sell, or there won't be one.
And I'm sick and tired of Coldplay this, Coldplay that. RADIOHEAD is the UK's most groundbreaking band since Pink Floyd and that will never ever change. They've made their mark and it is permanent. Coldplay is a very "now" kind of band. Radiohead is timeless.
