Description
On Coldplay’s new double LP, the world’s most earnest arena band sound looser than they have in years.
Their moody 52-minute vision quest is spread over two distinct halves, titled Sunrise and Sunset, giving the band enough space for an unadorned voice memo and a multi-part epic with a two-minute saxophone solo. Some songs are their softest, most understated compositions since their debut, 2000’s ‘Parachutes’. Despite its sprawling architecture, the album is one of the band’s most consistent, unified works.
