I’m so excited to see them on tour so I can wave an illuminated thing about while Chris Martin does his amazing dancing and I film the whole thing on my mobile phone.
We live in such amazing times.

"Music of the Spheres is not great as previous Coldplay albums, but still good album for most listeners."

I thought we're gonna get a whole album in the style of Coloratura, but nope.

This feels like an album they sellotape that cheap looking cover art on a thin cardboard CD sleeve to a newspaper (maybe the Sunday Times?)



I remember they did that for one of Prince’s last shitty albums, grim, this should be a late career freebie handed out for the non discerning masses.

Thought Coloratura was pleasant but unremarkable so the rest of this being a comparative letdown is a pretty bleak prospect

Coloratura had some nice moments but it is definitely not enough to safe this trainwreck of an album



pleasant but unremarkable is probably the perfect discription of Coloratura

Deeply weird to hear Coldplay trying to make early-2010s anthemic commercialcore in 2021, it's like music from a darker timeline where shit that sounds like "Humankind" still dominates alternative radio like it did a decade ago



Anyway "Higher Power" is bouncy and fun enough that I forgive it for basically being CCM, "People of the Pride" is the most embarrassing thing this band has maybe ever done and that's saying a lot, and the rest is an absolute snorefest and will be entirely forgotten in an hour wheeee

Yikes, this is poor. Coloratura isn't even that good. People of the Pride just sounds like an "advert" song for like the new Ford Kuga or something.



Shame that they can't really produce interesting music any more. The last effort was them trying but they didn't quite get there. Most people will lap this up though, so can't see them changing any time soon.

band should stick to emotional pop rock/piano rock that's what they do best, they cannot do this kind of music in an interesting way, not that their piano/pop rock stuff is interesting but at least it had heart. this new direction is some half-hearted shite. the most ambitious thing they did was Viva La Vida, and that was a pretty good record, more out there and ''prog'' than this new direction they are on.

Honestly didn’t think this was all that bad in first spin. I mean yeah it’s pretty bland and most of the features don’t really work but it’s mostly not like offensively bad or anything. I expected a bit more from “Coloratura” though based on what I had heard about it.

I'm bumping my score up for this. I guess I have no shame.

Agreed with Boney's take except I absolutely adore Coloratura.
