Coldplay - X&Y

As evidence that I do not have a lot of albums that begin with X, I have picked this Coldplay record to listen to and review. Don't get me wrong, I love "Parachutes" and most of "A Rush of Blood to the Head" but was never too fond of this particular record, it has it's moments, but never was an overall great record to me. I like Coldplay when it's guitar based, the epic, piano "Clocks" types songs seem to dominate this album. My favourite track on the album is the hidden track "Kingdom Come" because of it's simplicity and because it sounds like it could have come from one of the American records by Johnny Cash. Point is, listen to "Parachutes" and think of how good of a band Coldplay could have been.
