Coldplay are just a wannabe U2 cover band. What the hell is the argument over Radiohead Vs Coldplay about?
U2 are a big influence on Chris Martin. Like any band, the lead singer has one main band/singer who inspired him to start writing music.
Because Chris Martin talks about how he likes U2 alot, people start to assume he wants to be just like them. I don't think they sound alike in any way whatsoever. Plus Chris is a genuinely nice and modest man. Bono's had his head up his own arse all his life.
As for Coldplay Vs Radiohead. Why do people feel compelled to compare bands and choose the better one all the time? I like both of them alot. And I'd leave it at that.
Looking forward to Radioheads new album and Coldplays which is due around Autumn. Although Coldplay are headlining Glastonbury, and I would have expected them to have had lp5 out for a bit by then.
I reckon they'll be 2 of the best albums of the year.
