      Serious question.

      Coldplay come in for a lot of shit. Why?

      Why the question Giles? What is your view of Coldplay?

        I don't have a major issue with them, quite happy to listen to them and they don't make my skin crawl.

        But then I like U2 too. Mabe I’m drawn to areshole front men 😀

          I think it is because they are so bland, but also unoriginal. It’s like they curated all the most uninteresting parts of 30 years of alt rock (not least U2), and put it together. You can’t spell «banal» without «a…». Ok I’ll stop there.

            Thanks @Giles

            I think music, like all art, is subjective. It is a fool's errand to attempt to say what is good or bad. Whatever you enjoy is cool.

            PS For what it's worth I think The Unforgettable Fire is a masterpiece

              If this doesn't send your jaw to the floor,I don't know what will. Especially the guitar players in this thread,and last but not least who the fuck is Grace Bowers?

                      I never liked REM when I was in middle school or high school. I still don’t like their post Green output. Similar trajectory as U2 imo. I didn’t start listening to them until last year actually.

                      My point is now I get to listen to 6 classic proper college rock albums like it’s new music and I’m loving it.

                          @Bridger Search for her on YouTube,there’s tons of stuff. All of it is phenomenal. Like Jimi Hendrix and Eddie Van Halen had a baby.

                              @Matt REM “Fables of the Reconstruction” and U2 “The Unforgettable Fire” were huge for me when I was just starting to develop my own tastes and likes as a teenager. Fables was probably one of the first albums I bought when I moved to Dallas from Missouri in 1985. I think they still hold up

                                      Just discovered Marie Queenie Lyons, she only made one album in the ealry 70s, but well worth a listen if you like soul/funk music

                                        @Steve A funktastik recommendation! A proper blaster to start the day with! When checking out her album on Apple Music I've also now discovered their Music From The Big Cigar playlist which was also an awesome series on Apple TV - a double win! Cheers!
