some of the vocals on Rainy Day sound... odd... Processed or something? I'm guessing this is on purpose...
unless you accidentally downloaded Weird Fishes, I'm failing to hear any similarities
I must admit, I'm slightly tempted to dl the EP since I know they'll be playing tracks from it on Saturday. I still won't though. I hate going to shows where they play a high number of songs you haven't heard before that you'd enjoy much more if you at least knew what they were. Oh wellz.
leaaaaaakage! drainage.
sweet. im downloading this shit RIGHT now.
everything about this thread is stale
Listen to the guitar on the hook of the song.
Delete the remixes and you've got a pretty killer EP.
"Life in Technicolor ii" is pretty good, but I prefer the instrumental.
"Postcards from Far Away" - Gorgeous.
"Glass of Water" - I prefer restrained Coldplay to bombastic Coldplay, but this chorus is very good. I like this song more each time I listen to it. The loudness, the epicness of that chorus doesn't seem forced in this one. Which is a step in the right direction for them. The coda should have lasted longer.
"Rainy Day" - This one is an oddball. I like the effects on the vocals. It's a pretty ambitious song (for them). The strings in the chorus are beautiful.
"Prospekt's March" - This will be one of my favorite Coldplay songs ever. A great example of the restraint I think serves them well. Plaintive and beautiful. The "Poppyfields" coda is great too, although muted and brief.
"Now My Feet Won't Touch the Ground" - More restraint, more good results. The horns add a lot.
I'm tremendously happy with this EP. After the album and now with this, I can safely say they put together a good body of work this year when they desperately needed it.
No downloading 4 mii.
If it ends up streaming somewhere before tomorrow night though, someone please tell me!
Hmmm, while I'm not sure if that's a legal stream or not, but since it's not in English I'll just assume it is....
