Rolling Stone 4/5 Stars
A Head Full of DreamsBY JON DOLAN December 4, 2015Beyoncé, Noel and Gwyneth help Chris Martin shake out the sads Coldplay's last album, 2014's Ghost Stories, was a surprisingly dark and muted set released just months after Chris Martin's split with Gwyneth Paltrow. A year and a half later, the frown has been turned upside down. A Head Full of Dreams, produced by Norwegian hitmakers Stargate, might be Coldplay's brightest album ever – an eagle's-wings whoosh of soaring melodies, happy dance beats and Martin at his most wide-eyed. "There are miracles at work," he sings on the album-opening title anthem, which sounds like U2 and New Order on a joint humanitarian mission. Coldplay flex their coalition-building strength by bringing together Beyoncé's backing vocals and Noel Gallagher's heroic guitar on the gingerly optimistic "Up&Up." Bey also appears amid chirping birds on the R&B-touched "Hymn for the Weekend." The LP's healing mood is made personal when Paltrow herself adds some vocals to the warm farewell, "Everglow," on which Martin compares his ex to a diamond, a lion and an eagle. He's hinted that this could be Coldplay's last album; if so, they're going out on a sustained note of grace. link

So I bought the album through Amazon and also at iTunes because it will take a couple of days to get here. Now I am serious doubting to get the vinyl as well. I want those coloured LP's!

It's been a week since the album came out now (feels crazy to say that) and I love it just as much as I did then  |

noel g. talking about ahfod and chris: You played on the new Coldplay album – have you heard the whole thing yet? I’ve heard a couple of tracks, yeah. What do you think? I think this album will easily cement their place as the 13th greatest band of all time. Who’s number one? The Beatles. [talking about the recent best music he'd heard:] The track that I played on the Coldplay is somewhat predictably amazing. Can you explain that please? I have played guitar on the album. When you listen to the album, all the great guitar you hear in there is mine. Did you write anything for the Coldplay record? No, no, no. I just happened to be in LA when they were recording and as we are all very close friends, Chris [Martin] said, “Can you come to the studio and elevate this album somehow and try and get us in the top 13 bands of all time?” I said “I’m not a fucking miracle worker but I’ll do me best.” Would you let Chris play on one of your records? Absolutely. The man’s a fucking wizard, he’s a genius. source |
