A Rush of Blood to the Head
That does not mean that it is a bad album. A Rush of Blood to the Head being Coldplay's 2nd studio album and their 2002 release is an alternative rock release with a sound that to my ears sound like alternative rock light. Far from it but alernative to me should be a bit more experimental. One could also call this Brit Pop. The album spawned 4 singles. "In My Place", "The Scientist", "Clocks" and "God Put a Smile upon Your Face". The album was met with positive reviews and Allmusic, Rolling Stone and The Guardian all gave it high marks. The booklet is very sparse. It contains no lyrics but a bunch of links to political organizations important to the group. 4/5.


Coldplay
. I bought this after hearing songs on Pandora . . fell in love with Coldplay. U2, Muse fans or others in that genre should consider checking this out.


A Turning Point
It seemed that all that was out there was rap, over-distorted rock, and cookie cutter lyrics. A couple of years back I had all but given up hope for modern music. I now have gigabytes upon gigabytes of modern music. Coldplay was my gateway band, and this was the first album of theirs I ever owned. I love their use of piano, and Chris Martin's falsetto is mesmerizing. Clocks and The Scientist are standouts for me on this album, but every song is worth repeated listening. I strongly recommend this album, and this band.


Sonic signatures
. The often reviled mega-seller's sophomore release upped the volume and proved to bitter critics and music snobs alike how intuitive touch and expansive production elevates simplistic songwriting to earnest levels.


A Rush of Blood to the Head.
Cold Play knows how to really putout other great songs besides Clocks. One of my favorites songs is Clocks and that's the only song that I'm really crazy about the most.
