Coldplay's first two albums. on 10:40 - Jun 30 with 1485 views | ghostofescobar | Agreed. Their popularity and ability to constantly sell out massive stadiums is one of life’s great mysteries to me. I don’t get it on any level. He seems a very decent chap, but musically, something passed me by somewhere. |  |

I probably wouldn’t ever listen to their music day to day to be honest (although they do have some good songs) but they’re a fantastic live act. |  | |  |

It's awful bland, pointless drivel. Is it the 5th year they have headlined Glastonbury? Really shows how crap and meaningless it's become |  | |  |

They are marmite to say the least,personally I can’t see how people can’t see how amazing some of their songs are, I agree Glastonbury is a pale shadow of 15 years ago but Coldplay were amazing last night for me. |  |

If people like it then fair enough. But to me it just shows what an awful middle of the road cheese fest its become. Bit of a shame really |  | |  |

They are the perfect headliner for modern Glasto really. White middle class band for a white middle class audience. |  |

I couldn't agree more, I despise their bland toilet music for the masses. |  | |  |

It is fashionable to knock them, but having seen them live a few years back in London, they are superb. The 1975, a very critically acclaimed, edgy band who I had high hopes for, were awful at Glasto when they were given a prominent slot. People underestimate how hard it is to give a strong performance for a crowd that size, and also to be able to sing live for a venue that large. I'd say X&Y was a superb album too. After that it did get a bit too bland for me but the Coldplay hatred feels a bit like a lazy cliche. They write bangers and they are very, very good live. |  |
