COLDPLAY "viva la vida" cd,2008.
this is their fouth album out of five releases and this is IMO their worst effort to date...
for the most part i find this one lacking in their usual catchy hooks and melodies. its very dull in places, several of which just dont come out of the doldrums.
this album seems to lack something else, cant put my finger on it, but its there!?
maybe it was the anticipation of waiting for it to be released and i expected something earth shattering with the meaning of life or something similar, i dunno?, but it is a good album, just not by their standards...
