Album Of The Day: X&Y by Coldplay
Released 20 years ago today in the United States, this is the third album from rock/pop band Coldplay and may be still one of their best albums. Lyrically, the band asks some of the deep questions of life here and it seems like the band was grappling with their new-found success and status as an arena rock band. Musically, it's a great mix of keyboard-based and guitar-based sounds with top-notch bass and drums as well for a nice full-band sound. This album is a great hour of music if you play it right through, and all these songs are well-written and fun to listen to. It was the biggest-selling album of 2005 and Coldplay was everywhere back then, so maybe you have already listened to it, but if it's been a while, maybe you want to give it a listen again.
