COLDPLAY X&Y
Interview, July, 2005 by Dimitri Ehrlich

Most people's neuroses aren't very interesting, but Coldplay have parlayed theirs into a tidy, charming emotional dystopia of multiplatinum pop.

X&Y finds the band still perched on the fine line between new and old, with melodies that are familiar without being obvious, vocals that emote without being overly dramatic, and lyrics that express dissatisfaction without bumming you out. Their arrangements don't deviate much from formula, layering the pounding, zealous arena rock of U2 with a whiff of Radiohead's stylish paranoia. But the fact that they've managed to keep their oddly marketable version of ennui alive despite being rich and sexy is no small feat.
