I like that announcement. Haven't really enjoyed much of their stuff for the last couple of years outside of Los Unidades, but I'll check it out for sure.

I was at a Coldplay Concert once and it mainly consisted of me going "Oh, that's from them?!" for 2 hours.

Hearing Arabesque on my nice speakers at home made me a believer. It's goooooood. This shit is absolutely gonna kill in a live setting. I would looooooove to see them with a huge band behind them.

Also, that Orphans video is really good.

Apt name for an album I will be hearing over and over at the mall, in an elevator, at a Starbucks, etc.

Orphans is good, but Arabesque is amazing. I mean, it's hard to say how much of it is the creative work of the band members and how much it's the producers (it's a production marvel, that's for sure) and horn performers, but I don't really care when you get something that good from them.

Did not expect that after three disappointing albums in a row (increasingly disappointing, too).

Arabesque is wonderful, and not what I expected to hear from this band in 2019. This album is definitely on my radar now.

Two really solid songs, good stuff! A Head Full of Dreams only had 3 good songs so hopefully they can keep this pace up.

Also they should put All I Can Think About Is You on the album because it's one of the best they've ever written and deserves way more recognition.

Another new song (the title track) from the album.

I really like all three songs, so I'm starting to get my hopes up for this album.



They also did Orphans on SNL, which sounds really good live.

I'm really liking everything I've heard so far. Seems like it's shaping up to be a nice return to form album.

Champion of the World is alright but Daddy is really good.

Can't believe we're only 2 days away from this. I'm so excited.

All these short ass songs :|
I'm waiting to listen to Sunset until they do the live performance in Jordan in about 8-9 hours. I really enjoyed the sunrise performance.

Can't wait to see them live again.

I ended up deleting about 6-7 tracks from my playlist. There's a lot to like here, but also a lot that I just find to be utterly blahhhh. I hope this other album they're going to release soon is better.

I have no idea what they were trying to accomplish with this album.
It feels like a bunch of soundscapes or interludes mixed with 6 or 7 real songs. Only songs I've truly enjoyed was Church and Arabesque. I wish they'd try some more robust arrangements for the shorter tracks.

Coldplay really lost their writing chops after Viva LA Vida..

I wish they would do another album like XY or Rush of Blood. Something more guitar oriented.

I hate what they have become.

'I don't want a double album. I think you ought to cut out some of these, concentrate on the really good ones and have yourself a really super album.'
