(Yes, that's A Rush Of Blood To The Head by Coldplay).Sorry it's not your usual Dylan, Stones, Clash, Velvet Underground and Pixies, but I thought I'd keep it truthful...
Sounds Like: A mixture of punky, melodic powerpop, the album also veers off into more progressive, experimental and acoustic territories. As a whole, it has a distinctly English feel to it. Here's what some people have said...“Trashy pop-punk with melodies that will glue themselves inside your head”.....“Road-worn tales of life, love, longing and loathing”.....“Fans of bands as diverse as The Jam, Porcupine Tree, Blur, Genesis and the Manics will all find tunes to adore”.....“Melodies and social commentary reminiscent of Weller at his peak”.....“Eclectic. A proper album”....."Up it's own arse pompous drivel".Make of all that what you will.....
