    I didn't like the first single at first, but it's kind of growing on me.

    Violet Hill

    The song from their iPod commercial is Viva La Vida, I don't like this song.

    I like both songs actually with a bias a towards Viva La Vida.
    It seems like this album might be a collection of stadium anthem songs.

    Do you know when the full album is released?

    I've been listening to Coldplay since the 2000 release of Parachutes. They are probably my favorite mainstream act today.

    Their last album was weaker than their first two, but overall it was good. Hope this one gets back to prior form.

    The last one was my favorite of the three. Very much looking forward to this album.

    This new album is produced by ambient king Brian Eno. Should be interesting to see if the sound drastically changes.

    I've seen the new song on the commercial a few days ago and I liked it. Coldplay is one of the best groups ever, IMO.

    Agreed. I liked the first two albums better. Not that the 3rd one was bad or anything, just the previous two had a different style which I enjoyed more.

    Not sure and too lazy to look it up but he did do along with Daniel Lanois, U2's Joshua Tree as well as several Talking Heads albums.

    I have only heard one song (the one on the iTunes commercial) but I love what I have heard so far. Definitely going to pick this one up (believe it comes out on June 17); I have all 3 and seen them in concert and not ashamed to admit it. They are a great band. Their first album is still my favorite one by them although the other 2 have some great songs on them as well.

    From what I've heard this album will be a completely different sound, more guitar driven with a lot of spanish influence. Working with both Eno and engineer Markus Dravs (Arcade Fire much?) you've gotta expect a different sound this time around.

    They claimed their first 3 albums were part of a storyline or something. Now that they're done with that don't expect the same 'ol stuff from the past. The new album is supposed to release June 17th...Their concert in Houston is scheduled for 11/18/08, with tickets going on sale Jue 14th 10AM.
