I think they should call themselves something else. And they should also be sued for ripping off Daft Punk on Aeterna (that song name alone should illicit groans). I’ve been with them since Parachutes. I think Ghost Stories was their last great record. And even on that they don’t “sound like themselves”. I wish I can quit them. I keep waiting for them to wise up. Sound like a band again, not a ProTools session. And when did they get so obsessed with playing some orchestral sound before every song. Does every song need a four on the floor beat, too? They also feel the need to clutter up the stereo field with garbage noises in either channels. Somebody remind them it’s cool if it’s just a guitar and a vocal. There’s no further they can get away from who they were. It’s almost as if this was the AI version of the band. But this is no band. This is Coldplay. (groan)
