Negative Positive
Title: Not as great as everyone makes it out to be
Review: When I hear this album all I can think is that I've heard all these tunes before. Not all of the tracks are good, and despite a few semi-excellent tracks [i.e. "white shadows"], the rest of the album is bland and repetitive. Some of the lyrics sound downright pretentious to me, and none are jaw-dropping, though Chris Martin does manage to make them sound pretty.I see some hope for this band, but they've got to start being a little more innovative/original... the same formulaic rock over and over just isn't cutting it. 2/5 stars
