Coldplay are decent. Their music is appreciated worldwide.

I actually have a theory about Coldplay/Radiohead. Coldplay is the band Radiohead WOULD HAVE BEEN if they never went in the direction of OK COMPUTER and just did the same shit over and over and over.


Parachutes was an awesome first album, and (prepare for heresy) I think, comparably better than Pablo Honey. A Rush of Blood... was okay, but Viva la Vida... okay, more of the same guys, WTF?

Radiohead played with sounds a bit more, and basically took a HUGE gamble with what became like the biggest album of 1997. And then again with KID A.

It's kind of like the argument in Rap v. Hip-Hop (or, in better terms, "mainstream" vs "underground") in that while you can't really fault Coldplay for continuing to do what keeps them popular and make a ton of money from that, the results of the departure from doing just that is what keeps Radiohead highly reguarded as one of the greatest bands ever.
