Emily's Albums A to Z

Listened: Friday February 11

A Rush of Blood To The Head is one of those albums I couldn’t wait to hear. After Parachutes, which was clearly great, but also clearly only the start of something big, I wanted to know what was next.

Obviously more experimental than Parachutes, Coldplay take more chances sonically (Politik, Whisper, Clocks) while still giving the fans of beautiful ballads their treats (In My Place, The Scientist, Green Eyes). The evolution kind of reminds me of Radiohead, albeit cuddlier (or wimpier depending upon your opinion).
