good

[ambiguous.dude]

I only hope this isn't really to make more money, because that wouldn't be a funny joke.

[fadedmemories]

Probably just a publicity stunt

[Chromefox]

Since when has a threat like that ever been more than just a threat?

[Mxbaby511]

They are a sad excuse for rock.
But theyre okay...
I guess

You are a sad excuse for humanity.

[Kneeka]

After they put out another album they can do whatever they want.

[Posthardcore]

Doesn't effect me at all.

[Burn That Shit]

You guys don't like Coldplay?

[thespearkid]

Every band says this.

[funkel]

Sunonthesand reported this already. Late pass.

;-)

[Apoc]

I wouldn't be terribly broken up if this turned out to be a legitimate claim. I'd call their bluff, though.

They have made some nice music.

I lost respect for Coldplay. What a bunch of idiots. Clearly they aren't in it for the music if something as materialistic as looking young while making music is important enough to break up a band. That is ridiculous. Why would you stop your band becaues of your age? Why not keep making music if you've still got creative juices flowing? Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan and Van Morrison should have quit years ago. They aren't still making good music.

[heyzombiehitler]

I don't see a point to it, but okay.

Pretty much what I was thinking.

[c_rob2700]

Publicity stunt, and fucking spell Coldplay right

[silentstar1134]

Who listens to coldplay? Are they the same people that listen to James Blunt?

[chipdip18]

I don't care even if it is a publicity stunt, it's an incredibly stupid thing to say.

[c_rob2700]

That's prolly not all he said anyway, the reporter did his job and took it out of context most likely

[IWasaCamera]

Sunonthesand reported this already. Late pass.

This.

[chipdip18]

And i still do not care. Coldplay is an overrated band anyway.

[LamarVannoy]

last time i checked Coldplay was one word.

[silentstar1134]

I think they were on snl all like "Obama I want yo man JuicE!"

[SandManTEND13]

I would like to to see this happen

[the1]

God, what a bunch of miserable, moody cunts.

[c_rob2700]

They're british what do you expect

[Circa1628]

hopefully this isn't true. I think Viva La Vida is their best effort

[robat19]

You guys don't like Coldplay?
Nope.

[Until The Bombs]

Isn't really an announcement you can count on.

[boykosaurus]

eh

Can't tell if you're being sarcastic but I really hope that you are.

[c_rob2700]

He's not.

[chipdip18]

Yeah i'm being sarcastic haha.

[Mxbaby511]

Sarcasm..
I love it

[Brooklyn2010]

Sad day! But, it doesn't really matter. Whatever band Chris Martin decides to form/join after this will sound exactly the same as Coldplay. Unless he's 'retiring' for real at 31, like he's claiming. Maybe he just means the band though? That's the impression I was under at least.


Isn't really an announcement you can count on.
I agree though, not completely the strongest source.

[Buffalo66']

I don't mind this band

But I'm not a big fan either

[The Boathouse]

If they can bang out one more solid album, I'll let them go. Viva was awesome, their new EP is fucking sweet. The other albums pre-Viva? Meh. I'm not that into them. But this new sound they've got going, I'd like to see a continuation of developing in this vein, this louder style they have going. But I can't say in fairness that they "have" to keep going. Nobody could say that. They're artists, and when they feel they have done all they can do, then it's time to let them move on.

[SLoT]

Stopped liking them after their second record. Don't really care much if they were to call it quits this afternoon.

[Nourez]

You guys don't like Coldplay?

Not all that much. I listen to em a bit, the only album of theirs that I've really liked was Viva La Vida. The rest put me half to sleep. I dunno how much I would care at this point if they broke up.
