Coldplay's New Album is Just Warm

Hmmm, I've really been looking forward to Coldplay's highly anticipated Viva la Vida. I even featured it in June Musts. But, as I listened, I could certainly hear the classic Coldplay-ish themes and soft rocking, but I wasn't super impressed. What threw me off mostly was the lack of lyrics- the first track Life in Technicolor doesn't have any words, but the other 9 songs have soft vocals. The only songs that wowed me were Violet Hill, Viva la Vida, and Death and All His Friends (which is a cross between Fix You and Speed of Sound) But, if your a huge fan of the Brit boys, then don't let this stop you from buying it; I'm pretty sure it'll debut at number 1 on Billboard, anyway.


Viva la Vida is avaibible now at Target:
