Full review
Well Cold Play have done it again, another fantastic album. After only listening to it a couple of times I booked concert tickets. This however, was not because of an instant love of it, it was more because I have faith in Cold Play.
The album is definitly a grower and worth listening to a few times before makeing a decision on it. By the time the concert came around I was as much in love with this album as their previous two. For anyone who hasn't been to a Cold Play concert is it well worth going, it is much more rocky live and you will end up listening to the albums on full volume afterwards.
Would recommend this album to anyone but give it a good listen to.
