Rolling Stone (p.75) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "On MYLO XYLOTO, the choruses are bigger, the textures grander, the optimism more optimistic. It's a bear-hug record for a bear-market world." Spin (p.68) - "MYLO XYLOTO draws from an expansive palette....'Hurts Like Heaven' rides a zippy new-wave groove that justifies its Cure-conjuring title..." Q (Magazine) (p.120) - 5 stars out of 5 -- "[A]n album, which in its flawless magic, its overwhelming melodic might, could well be the work future generations champion as Coldplay's touchstone." Mojo (Publisher) (p.92) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Chris Martin & co's fifth album is a more streamlined affair, re-embracing themselves as an unpretentious yet big-sounding pop group." Uncut (magazine) (p.83) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Coldplay remain as hip as ever....There's no shortage of decent tunes..."

In 2000, Coldplay emerged seemingly out of nowhere to become a worldwide smash with their debut album PARACHUTES and hit single "Yellow." While oft lumped in with the Britpop crowd, they favor a more thoughtful, melodic, Travis-esque piano-centric pop approach than arena-rock chest-beaters like Oasis. Led by charismatic frontman Chris Martin, the band expanded its horizons (and its fanbase) throughout the aughts, while remaining true to its basic form. One of the only British rock bands of their era to make a major impact on the US charts, Coldplay prove that simple, memorable, straightforward pop-rock can still be striking even in the post-everything 21st century.
