    I was really into them when I was younger, and I still enjoy music from their first few albums. They are way more pop-oriented now though. Chris Martin is very corny, but is actually a pretty talented and creative pop musician. I don’t get the comparisons to Nickelback. I like them when I just want something low key, and easy to listen to. I also listen to a bunch of other “real” music as well, but for me it’s not an either or thing, but just depends on mood.

      Was into em growing up too! A Rush of Blood to the Head is a pretty solid album and I still go back to it sometimes. Viva La Vida has its highlights too. Not wild about much since, though Coloratura was neat. But yeah like there’s far worse out there
