Coldplay
Man, I hate Coldplay. The more you listen to this one damn song, the more repulsive it gets. Now, there’s people who adore the band. I get that. They connect with the songs in swirls of emotions tethered on by the seemingly omnipresent voice of Chris Martin. He’s an annoyingly likable dude who unfortunately strayed off the path of musical righteousness and instead became a figurehead of musical landscape’s dullest corners. The more the band tries to branch out, the more chaotic and tacky their music gets. However, the stuff they did when their music was stripped down was actually not half bad. They’re decent musicians, and can probably kick it to something fresh if they wanted to. Instead, they employ entire orchestras and horn sections for songs invoking the same old schtick over and over again.
