Coldplay - Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends
A conceptual change marks this new album. Critics can say what they want, but Chris Martin and Co., with the help of Brian Eno, were adventurous this time around. Sounding strong, epic and full of grandeur as well as artificial and over-produced at times. Coldplay liked silent work and there isn't much of that in this 4th studio record.
It's not one of those albums you want to listen to with small PC speakers. "Lovers in Japan/Reign of love", Martin cultivates the melodies and a lot of them fight the bases. Johnny Buckland's guitar is reminiscent of The Edge's from U2, who also worked with Eno.
Most of the times in which Chris sings along with his piano, he breaks the mold previously set, always of effects and different guitar sounds.
"Yes" pushes a "Kashmir" like sound with oriental strings and a hypnotic sound to it and it changes in the middle to a guitar song with an ethereal voice over the guitars. As drummer Will Champion said in an interview, they didn't hesitate to try anything. The cords also dominate "Viva la Vida" catchy tune, easy to whistle to in which talks about a powerful man who ruled the World and now roams the streets that once belonged to him.
The guitars of "Violet Hill" has an attack you won't hear in any other song, a very well constructed tune and a strong single... You'll have to listen to the album. Coldplay fans have to love it and non-fans too as Coldplay is an everyone's band.
P.S. "Viva la Vida" is a painting which portraits the dead nature of fruits by Mexican legend Frida Kahlo, but the album cover is the painting "Liberty Leading the People" by French romantic painter Eugène Delacroix.
The long awaited final between #1 and #2 in the World ended with the expected result. Spaniard Rafael Nadal won the title for the 4th time defeating the Swiss Roger Federer this Sunday 3x0 sets. The partials were 6/1, 6/3 and 6/0, in 1h49m.
With the title in Paris, besides becoming 1 million euros richer, the man has equalled the Swedish Bjorn Borg, champion between 1978 and 1981. The number 2 in the World doesn't know defeat in the clay Grand Slam, and this year, he didn't lose a single set.
This was the 22 year old's 11th victory over Federer in 17 games, being that 9 of them were on clay courts. And the 3rd one in a Roland Garros final. The previous 2 finals, Nadal won 3x1 sets.
Holder of 12 Grand Slam titles - 5 in Wimbledon, 4 US Opens and 3 Australian Opens - Federer will have to wait another year for a shot at the "Rolanga" title and be the 6th player in history to achieve the career slam, a player who conquers all 4 Grand Slams.
Sevilla's right full-back Daniel Alves will be wearing the blaugrana jersey next season turning him the most third most expensive signing in Barcelona's history. 29 million euros will be the cost and he'll top Sammy Eto'o, Ronaldinho and Henry in terms of transfer fees.
Man City's president Garry Cook has told the BBC that Barcelona has given them permission to talk to Ronaldinho.
Milan continues to shake up the transfer market. Vice-president Adriano Galliani has confirmed the club is negotiating with Eto'o. According to him, Sammy wants to join the Rossoneri despite being out of the CL next season, the problem is the strong competition for the player with English clubs..jpg)
