A Personal Top 5 album of the Decade

Date of Review:  Oct 28, 2004
The Bottom Line: As an underground Hip Hop and Thrash Core Emo fan I come to you with all humility....BUY THIS ALBUM OR PERISH...
Review: At first listen, simple beauty fades in. Oh, we're sinking like stones, All that we fought for, All those places we ve gone, All of us are done for. We live in a beautiful world, Yeah we do, Yeah we do . More appreciative of the earth than the mind...

Coldplay parachuted to stardom with this album!

Date of Review:  Feb 3, 2003
The Bottom Line: Not much to say, but if there is something to say, then it would be to purchase the album.
Review: I remember when I first heard of Coldplay. I was flicking through the 4 TV channels back in Hong Kong and caught the video for one of Coldplay's hit singles, Don't Panic from the album, Parachutes. When I heard them, I thought, "wow, why have I...

This Lacks a Few Sparks, but Everything's Not Lost...

Date of Review:  Mar 25, 2003
The Bottom Line: A flawed album that is highly over rated.
Review: This, as I have said before, is definitely not the album that many make it out to be. It is indeed, very good in places, but these places are few and far between. In terms of standout tracks, "Parachutes" has a few tracks that are very good and...

A great debut - Album of 2000!

Date of Review:  Feb 19, 2001
The Bottom Line: All in all, this is a great album. It was my favourite album of 2000, and I would recommend it to any fan of good music.
Review: Coldplay were voted NME Best New Band of 2000, and rightly so. Coldplay are among the current wave of so called "New Acoustic Movement" bands, and in my opinion, pull it off better than any of them. Where Travis can sometimes be a bit bland,...

Coldplay - the new Radiohead?

Date of Review:  Mar 16, 2001
The Bottom Line: Simple and unassuming music - no prerequisite for listening. You won't get tired of listening to the same songs again and again. Listen and believe for yourself.
Review: This album is a timeless classic from the moment you hit the play button on your stereo. "Don't Panic" is a simple, 2 minute lead-in to Coldplay's debut album, Parachutes. No wonder, as they have been awarded with three Brit awards, Q awards and...

Nice and safe

Date of Review:  Jun 29, 2001
The Bottom Line: Easy going pop-rock that sounds a little like Radiohead. It's a worth a look if this is your kind of thing, but it never quite moves beyond average
Review: Several months ago, I thought to myself: if only epinions had ?Parachutes? available, I could write a review about it. Then, after a couple of months of feverish checks I gave up, assuming that Coldplay hadn?t managed to cross the Atlantic. But now,...

Coldplay's Parachutes catch air and float across the radio. . .

Date of Review:  Aug 7, 2003
The Bottom Line: Coldplay's Parachutes is filled with different spins on life, all wrapped up in a melancholy and soothing vocal experience, served by Chris Martin. Enjoy.
Review: Sometimes you just have to take another person's word for it when they say "you have to listen to them". Of course I'm talking about music, silly! What else?

When Shadesofblue asked me to listen to a few of Coldplay's songs, I at first was...

I awake to see that no-one is free

Date of Review:  Sep 14, 2005
Review: What's the best way of describing Coldplay? I know, at some points good and imaginative and at other times, just plain dull.Well, that's how I see them. With me, Coldplay is like a small interest, I'd buy their albums but never call them one of my...

Yes. I've been living under a rock.

Date of Review:  Mar 6, 2001
The Bottom Line: Pick this one up for a rainy day, but check out the comparable artists who won't be found on the top forty radio stations.
Review: And so it was, one day a few weeks ago, when a friend of mine turned over my stone, dusted me off, and took me out to see the world, and in the process, introduced me to Coldplay.

Now apparently, everyone and their mother has not only...

Chicken Soup for the Mind

Date of Review:  Jul 2, 2002
The Bottom Line: Smooth and clear vocals, easy music with unexpected depth, poetic lyrics, songs that you can't get out of your head.
Review: Why I bought the album:
I bought the album for the song Yellow. This album is worth buying for this song alone. I review each song one by one below. I had never heard of Coldplay until one night it was featured as a buzzworthy video on Mtv. One...
