Thoughts

This is an album that has associations for me so it’s taken quite a while to pluck up the courage to get through it. But it’s such a good one, it was worth it. I really love it, the more wistful, melancholy and inventive side of Coldplay, back when they were just starting out.

It works so well as a body of work, but Trouble is a particular high point, especially coming off the back of Yellow. Great album, and hopefully I can listen to it more in the future.

Rating: 5 / 5
