It’s funny because this album isn’t their best but probably has their greatest and most creative track. Coloratura… which I think is a masterpiece.

[@caeleywobbles]

jesus, everyone giving this review such a hard time simply because alex didn't like it. he's entitled to his opinion; if he didn't like the direction coldplay took on this album, that's completely fine. i'm a huge coldplay fan and yet i also felt very underwhelmed by this album (except coloratura), despite enjoying most of the rest of coldplay's more pop-based output throughout the 2010s. i just found this record fairly forgettable in comparison. alex gave completely fair criticisms throughout this review, yet people decide to give it shit because he didn't like it. anyone is allowed to have their own opinions on the album, and if you liked it then that's understandable. but don't dismiss this review simply because it wasn't for him. (also yessss they NEED to bring back bloodless revolution someday i hold up hope)

[@caeleywobbles]

also considering this is a multi-volume project it'd be really interesting to see what they do on vol 2. coloratura WAS really promising, so it'd be awesome to see them experiment more with that sound in the future

[@cornflakecookie9927]

I'm a longtime Coldplay fan since circa 2003 and your reactions and thoughts were eerily like my own, right down to the Don Quixote moment. This was sadly the first Coldplay album I couldn't actually sit through, and I even skipped certain tracks partway through. I've since gone back and listened again fully to judge the album properly, but it's only losing the very little appeal it had. A shame. Coloratura has glimpses of the interesting things they could be doing. Instead they pretty much opted for AHFOD 2.0, only even blander this time round. Good job on this video!

[@Betti509]

I think Coloratura in the right mood is just amazing, maybe you should listen to it just before your bedtime ahahaha, best song of the album for sure

[@CDmusic10]

When you compare coldplay's new songs like coloratora to their older stuff that was actually rock/pop, and that's what you came to Coldplay to listen to, it's quite a letdown.

[@continentalcoxons]

I'm with you on those one. I'm a huge Coldplay fan but I'm not happy with this album at all. One or 2 good tracks at most. Love Coloratura, can take or leave the rest of it.

[@continentalcoxons]

@Sunzal- it's the first album of theirs I've really disliked. Put it in this morning and gave Higher Power and My Universe a chance to see how it blended into the album as a whole but it's done nothing for me. Feel a bit cheated as the album isn't even that long play time wise. Very disappointed.

[@continentalcoxons]

@Sunzal- yes it's disappointing. I felt similar to you,however when I heard Coloratura by hopes raised again then came My Universe 🙄

[@callmeej8399]

[@TeachingNomadTravel]

@Sunzal- I'm totally with u. I feel ripped off.

[@JamesMurphy1984]

@Sunzal- the whole point is an album has a theme and should be experienced start to finish. At least they’re attempting to produce albums where you still play them from start to finish. Most artists just stick songs together on an album with no thought to cohesion or artistic merit. Its not like it used to be.

I feel like Everglow from A Head Full of Dreams is better than Let Somebody Go. I think Major Minus sounds better as a rock song than People of the Pride. Infinity Sign makes me think of the last track on Viva La Vida. Halfway through Coloratura it reminds me of Moving to Mars.

[@dilegox]

Idk why people are giving you such a hard time for this review. Listen, Coldplay are completely capable of making great songs like Coloratura, Arabesque, or some of the old ones, but for some reason they (or just Chris) decide not to do so to apply to the masses, to get more fame, to get quick buck, we may never know. It's a shame, because Chris, Jon, Guy and Will work really really good as a band, and are capable of producing great material, but idk, something feels off of them recently.

[@artrojas4732]

They decide not to do “good songs”? Lol

[@willgreen6289]

How do you know that is why they are doing what they are doing? I dont think this is their best overall. It is Coldplay pop. Its not Rush of Blood to the Head or Everyday Life (which contrary to some of the people who follow this guy I think if one of the best overall albums I have ever heard). Even with that being said, I think Human Heart and Coloratura are some of the best Coldplay has ever put out. Still, my point being that Coldplay is doing pop. They have a variety of styles. Maybe the last album was kinda like political anger and the one before was unicorns and rainbows and the one before was breakup sadness and reflection and this one is just back to pop. Maybe this is where they wanted to be now and did it on purpose. You know the next one won't be exactly the same feel and type of music. They dont reproduce albums like formulaic corporate machines like so many these days do. They do what they want to ... and guess what?! I actually like this album. I always like everything Coldplay does LOLOL.

[@JamesMurphy1984]

@@artrojas4732 they’re experimenting. We think they aren’t good songs because it’s subjective. Higher Power & My Universe already have 115m listens each that’s more than nearly all of Everyday Life. It doesn’t make it shit. It means they’ve appealed to a larger audience and not our specific taste.

[@JamesMurphy1984]

@@benjamindavis4974 this is the problem. Maybe they produce the pop stuff so they can experiment a bit with everyday life and make whatever tracks they want. The record machine could be the problem here. Having said that it’s not necessarily a bad thing branching out into different audiences. It exposes their older music to different people.

Man, i really wanted to like this based on how intriguing some of the snippets sounded on the Overtura trailer (Infinity Sign in particular) as well as Coloratura being as good as it is but alas, this ended up just being a collection of incredibly mediocre and bland pop songs. I guess that's a disadvantage of getting Selena Gomez and BTS on your album huh. That said though, Humankind is a bop and even though i don't love it, i appreciate Infinity Sign for what it is. Hopefully with Vol. 2 (if that even happens), they will deliver more of what Coloratura promised and less disposable pop.

[@intergalactic2393]

my man they are dying down as a band, of course they'd want to venture out and explore new things, and i have ventured to BTS after listening to my universe and their music is literally 60% hip hop with some deep messages ,calling them a disadvantage is really telling of how much you've listened to them, some of the things they've produced have been great and im glad my universe made me see that, always have to be open minded when listening to music, otherwise you're going to sound like an idiot, althou i don't know about selena, tried some of her songs and didnt like them but music is subjective ,but at least try the music first and from what ive learned of BTS, 3 members produce hip hop tracks, 2 jazz and soul, and the rest r&b ,the pop tracks they release are all typical label push stuff

[@SaltyStU2]

It's a good song, but nowhere near anything Floyd put out. The lyrics ESPECIALLY just aren't all that great. It sounds like Chris Martin reading through the glossary of a high school textbook... and then him naming colours... it's just an eye roll at times

[@CDmusic10]

Please do not compare Coloratora to Pink Floyd lol.

[@eoindevereuxmusic]

I think that coldplay are in a new place and people are upset by that because we all love that chris martin being vulnerable and honest on parachutes and a rush of blood to the head. Maybe he has ran out of things to say. I thought it was a creative album with the different planets I thought that was really cool, however the singles were not good which normally is the opposite for coldplay albums. Coloratura is decent but is still quite glossy. Their first two albu.s won't be peaked nor should they try to. All we want from a coldplay album is honesty and something coming from a vulnerable place. For their last few albums have been too safe and that just doesn't work for them. Take my universe for example. I think that was a commercial move and perhaps a smart one if that's their intention, if that's what they want to achieve from their platform then I wish them well.

I think Coldplay should stop trying to be what they are not. It's good that they embrace all music now, but they can't be everything. I'm all up for reinvention to attract new fans but it should be cohesive. Coloratura too they could have avoided the last part, it wasn't necessary to try to make 10 mins long, it would be better more crisp by deleting unnecessary parts.

In my opinion Everyday Life was their weakest album but even then they don’t really have a bad one to be honest. This album is really good, it’s time you clowns realize that pop/alternative is the new genre they are in now… There’s a reason hip hop and pop are the two biggest genres right now and have been for years now. On top of that no one is doing what Coldplay is doing with Music Of The Spheres… 7.5/10

Thank you @BLK SHEEP

7.5 lmao

@@moonillusions832 so I’m not allowed to have an opinion? Okay, gotcha 👍🏼

[@strikerbowls791]

I love this album, best since AROBTTH

[@moonillusions832]

It's their worst by a landslide imo. AHFOD is so much better than this album. So dissapointing.

[@bluraynation5188]

@@moonillusions832 Finally glad I share this opinion with someone. I LOVE A Head Full of Dreams and it is definitely my favourite Coldplay album. I get why people don’t like AHFOD and at the end of the day music will always be subjective but man MOTS was a major step down.

[@CardiffOneOne]

Not entirely sure why you chose to review an album when a) you look half asleep and b) you don't seem to like Coldplay. It would be like me listening to an Eminem album when I hate Eminem and know it would be shit. Waste of your time. Music of the Spheres is terrific, by the way...and there's nothing wrong with going "pop" now and again. ..

[@AlexHaitz]

"you don't seem to like Coldplay"? I said that Parachutes is my favorite album. I love Viva, and I think Rush and X&Y are solid too. Not sure where you're getting that from. Glad you enjoy the new album, I wish I could as well.

I would like to see this guy put out an album so that we can shit all over it! I love how people that have never created anything in their life find it so easy to piss all over someone else's work. Like it or hate it, Coldplay did something that you will never ever be able to do. Coldplay's worst song is better than anything that you will ever do.

Here's my 2nd and most recent album. Feel free to rail against it all you like, but I hope you can find it enjoyable. kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3S2gJtshamJpaM

[@bagelq2028]

Ah yes the most overused, useless type of argument, the “you try doing it, I bet you can’t do any better” argument. Everyone has free right to judge a creation whether they can create it or not, you don’t have to be a chef in order to determine whether the food taste good or tastes like crap, So shut the hell up

[@caeleywobbles]

@Karl Davis jesus christ you're incredibly petty lol. listeners have the absolute right to criticize an album, regardless of whether they're musically talented or not. it's all dependent on musical taste; if he didn't like it, that's fine, it just isn't for him. he didn't at all endlessly shit on the album throughout this review unlike some people

[@moonillusions832]

What a dumb comment

Coldplay are dead to me

What an annoying review lol

So disappointing from the influx of meaningless interludes to the mediocre compositions that never go anywhere interesting. I hope they never give this album attention after this era is over.
