appeal to as many white people as possible

Like, we're taking a load of shit today on FB for making clothes for tall, slim people

[Tago Mago]

@Giles true, and if I still liked their music I wouldn’t care.

[Bridger]

There is possibly an element of tall poppy syndrome from people who don't like their music and cannot understand their popular success (aka Creed, Nickelback and Swift).

Or they don't like DHL.

These takes on coldplay sound a lot like the current output of U-know who-2

Complete with insufferable frontman

[mclaincausey]

Yeah U2 is insufferable. I think Achtung Baby was the last one I enjoyed at least a little and Joshua Tree was their pinnacle.

I liked them when they first came out but now
their music and stage presence is nearly indistinguishable from the likes of Maroon 5. If you showed me a recent performance of theirs then told me they had just won American Idol I’d believe you. Their music is just shitty.

Same.

Had to throw this out there…What does Bono say after sex?…Was it good for U2!

Oh dear....

100%. Good analysis Matt.

Maroon 5 is a good comparison.

[Bridger]

Rather than Coldplay, I saw Soft Play tonight. A little different.

[SKT]

@GraemeE same, same. Still need to see Asteroid City!

Edit: I’ve made my kids watch the Fantastic Mr. Fox just to imprint it on their creative dna

[sophisto000]

@GraemeE Love it.
Who/what albums give you a similar feel?
