I think this was the highest selling album of the whole year! Coldplay did an excellent job of trying to be creative and bring in classical elements for their title track. Great review.

[...] Its an interesting sound for the Brit quartet, whose most recent album was unbelievable (my review at Into the Hill); its very…. American. Which is good? [...]

Anton -

Im glad you are calling me out on that. Fact is, I figured it would be ironic. A slight bit of satire, if you will. Very conscious decision to use the word as much as I did.

Besides, Hipster is just a fun word.

So did it work? Are you cool now?

You use the word “hipster” or derivations thereof enough that the first time I read the article I peed myself thinking there was a chance I could be uber-cool by listening to (of all things) Coldplay. Perhaps you spastically copied and Pasted (eh, riley, eh?) the word due to a yet-unconscious desire to join those pretentious crowds? Or maybe you just figured you needed more buzzwords–what’s a review without them?

“let them raise their pitchforks and battle axes.” –Ha. And Spin their Blenders on The WIre while Rolling their Stones, Exclaiming on Billboards, In Music We Trust.

I bought the Album, not because Graeme let me listen to it and I thought it was interesting, but because you sold it to me four minutes ago.
