m1rfy:Yeah it was the album of the year in 2008. They are getting better with each album, Same as coldplay.
What??? I dont think they'll better Parachutes. Also, X&Y was abysmal!
As for Only By The Night, I thought it wa sa real let down.
I half agree. Coldplay for me are so over rated. KOL are the best rock band in the world at the moment. Only by the Night sounds sublime on my system. Their last album was amazing too.
Nearly fell of my seat there - KOL are the best rock band in the world at the moment???!!! In your opinion!
They started out promisingly but have got gradually worse with each release - apparently they now aspire to be a stadium band, if that wasn't bad enough there's the haircuts, the awful singing and the dreadful, openly mysoginystic lyrics.(IMO)
Come on DD, do I need to put imo after or before everything I write?? Obviously it's my opinion as music is subjective. There's not a best band in the world belt or anything.
I have to disagree with your opinion though. I though their first album was decent. I loved Aha Shake. Because of the Times was (imo) not as good but then the new album is their best so far. The haircuts have got better! Well, they have now had some haircuts and although they are not a band that are clear and coherent in their singing, Caleb's voice is fantastic.
