i'll not claim to be a huge coldplay fan. but I own three discs. (x & y, parachutes, rush of blood to the head). I was really let down by x & y. I thought that parachutes was marvelous. When i got around to picking up robthh, I was blown away. That cd is downright amazing. x and y just left too much to be desired. They seem to be trying to follow radiohead's path to greatness. They overused electronic samples on this cd and almost tried too hard. The beauty of their first cds and ultimately the band they seem to be following radiohead is the simplicity and leaving things as expression and not as effort.
