Are Coldplay the shittest band in the world?

[Gandalf]

I would have to argue that is indeed the case. I am currently sitting through their abortion of a new album and have come to the almost instant conclusion that it is total and utter shit. They have at least produced some decent individual tracks in the past, but this album has absolutely nothing. A lot of sheen, but no heart within whatsoever and a total lack of tunes. This makes 'Lulu' look like the album of the year.

Chris Martin needs to bugger off, lose his hair and spend more time having sex with his wife. Music is clearly not his forte. Crap, crap, crap.

I would argue that Coldplay are the shittest big band in the world today, and boy, that takes some doing.

What do you guys think? Is there anything worse than Coldplay?

[Gandalf]

Why on earth do they all try to have this silly 'big' U2 sound. Just make sure you have some bloody tunes first. Wankers.

Yeah I hate coldplay with a passion, ever since that stupid clocks song came out.

Yes, 'Clocks' is a rubbish song and 'A rush of blood to the head' a massively overrated album. I love 'The Scientist', but as an album? Nah, it doesn't hold up at all.

For me, as a singles band, they have always been pretty solid, but I have just never listened to an album that really holds together in any real way. With this new record, I don't even see where the singles are. All a bit of a mess.

Not heard the new album yet, but their performance at Glastonbury this year, I thought, was superb.

Once again, another showing of your lack of musical taste Miles, go and sit in the corner and talk to yourself about it

Next you'll be telling me Meat Loaf are no good

Like I say, as a singles band they are very good. But the new album is poor, I was hoping for at least a few decent singles. Not even that this time.

Yeah not to mention how pretentious Chris Martin is.

He's a stupid lemon, it's no wonder he married Gwyneth Paltrow and called his eunuch child 'Apple'.

Gwyneth Paltrow is a moonbat environmentalist/health nazi but I'd give it to her.....I'd slather her in bacon grease first though

[Mark TKO]

I agree they are certainly no Jesus Jones but to say they are the shittest band in the world is going a bit far.


Never bought an album but they have done some great singles like you said.

So in answer to your question - no

I would likely headbutt her and get Chris Martin into a headlock and force him to apologise for his own crime against humanity. There is no excuse for how bad this album is.

I'm talking about in the here and now though and I have never heard such a poor release from a big band in such a long time. Like I say, this makes Lulu look like album of the year.

[Memphis]

I've no time for coldplay what with Steps reforming.
