Negative Positive
Title: Amazing
Review: . . . that this cheesy, boring, Vegas-lounge effort is given so many superlatives by so many people. I can't find a single song on this album that isn't ruined by embarrassing writing or bland production. This is their "greatest album yet"? The crisp sound and sharp lyrics are gone and have been replaced with a rock opera by The Carpenters. Coldplay was always a bit overhyped to begin with, but this effort is, as one reviewer put it, "music for shopping malls and armpit commercials." To say this cd is disappointing doesn't really come close. It's a collection of numb, lifeless, whiny songs that are posing as angst-art but only manage to bore you to death. There are a hundred bands that can top this in their sleep.
Is the review positive or negative?
