Oh, Definitely. And all of those memorable songs aren't on Viva La Vida, which will be remembered in 5 years as "that iPod commercial".
The problem with Viva La Vida is while, on previous efforts, they could pass as Radiohead emulators or U2 wannabes... and pull off something original and interesting. With Viva, they've finally mastered it. They've become just another band in a sea of another bands that sound like... other bands. Forgetable music, overambitious concept and piss poor production on half the tracks. Fame has destroyed Coldplay by granting them the validation they've been experimenting so interestingly to achieve.
right! that solo is awesome!that coldplay song they play all the time on the radio? that one's called "the forest of october."
