“We wrote a Christmas song for Kylie, but I don’t think anyone really liked it…. Aching? Yes, because he could and should be a better song writer, and why oh why does he insist on vocals of, pretty much, just him, with no backing? Only when he is joined by a woman, does his voice, also, separate, and maybe he needs to listen to The Beatles for male voice harmony? Or Oasis, for more up to date.The rock band released their ninth studio album earlier this year (Matt Crossick/PA)ĭiscussing the possibility of another Christmas song on Jo Whiley’s Radio 2 show, the Coldplay frontman said: “No… I feel like for us we did one and we really love it, unless something naturally happens. So, mix aside? Well, this is Cold Play, and take away the anthems that we all know, and once more I find Chris Martin achingly lacking. I would also suggest ANY group of the 70s, as their mixing was far superior to today's. What this group need is a team who were around during analogue recording, and to listen to tight bands of the analogue days, such as Pink Floyd, Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin. I would say that the bass is massive, and it detracts from the brilliantly tight rhythm section, and the natu rally needed treble or high areas. CD cannot separate as analogue can, but the issue is the sound engineers and Producer mix, these days, for CD and down-loads first, and then when its pressed, for vinyl, the damage is done.
Its just too much bass in the mix! CD is a notoriously lazy mix, as it fails with its own modernity. My biggest complaint, not just with this CD, but all Cold Play CD's is that they need a new Producer, and the Producer needs better sound engineers. I would go for Cold Play Live Paris 2012, as they used the tour to unleash the album, and I have to say Cold Play live, anywhere, are where this group really are at their best. so, ''Would I recommend it?'', I am asked? Well, no, not really.
