Keane - Hopes and Fears (2004)

  I remember when I was recording some demos with my band around 2004/5 and the studio engineer was banging on about Keane's album being marvelously produced. Apart from that we all heard their singles on the radio and to be honest I didn't take a liking to it then but listening to the album today for the first time I must say that despite being frontloaded with the hits at the beginning gets a good flow going and I can see why a lot of people have praised this album. Tom Chaplin's vocals are very good if not amazing and the problem for me with the three-piece is that they are too low key, a bit too perfect, which makes the music quite boring.It's definitely a light kind of pop and the lyrics are not terribly deep but they don't need to be with this type of music. Yes there are some similarities with Coldplay but not having a guitar makes the songs less hook driven and quite a lot more introverted. There are some similiarities with 90's chill out music which I h...

Coldplay - A Rush Of Blood To The Head (2002)

Coldplay's 2nd album after their debut, 'Parachutes', which spawned their popularity due to their singles 'Yellow' and 'Trouble', showed the world this was a talented band which could seemingly write hits whenever they pleased. The simple and arty cover indicates to us the way the music will be - and 'Politik' starts things off with a good build up and sets the mood: Just four guys making basic songs which sound modern post-millenium-like bringing in a new world and new sound. It could be said that Coldplay have been the most successful band of the last 20 years, seemingly dominating the charts with every album having at least one hit, which is no easy tasks in the slippery world of pop. So how to define Coldplay? They have that indie rock vibe of the 90's but made new, thanks to the more minimalist arrangements and strong, distinctive voice of singer Chris Martin weaving his easily recognizable melodies through his voice and his piano-playing.

Keane - Under The Iron Sea (2006)

  Add caption This, Keane's 2nd album album, is a less hit-ridden affair but the songs are almost equally strong. I am currently half-way through it with 'Put It Behind You' which is starting to slightly grate on me. I enjoyed the first 5 songs but then 'Hamburg Song' came on and it isn't very enjoyable. There's nothing to really grab you and some say Keane make more intelligent music than Coldplay but that is debatable. Sure, there is more spacey keyboard playing but do the means justify the end if all we get is a pretty boring ride of sound of 12 songs. I'm afraid they really are a 2nd rate Coldplay, as the enjoyment....wait, Crystal Ball has just come on and I really like the chorus, I even seem to remember it being on the radio all that time ago. My mum's verdict has said that 'Coldfeet' have a more serious sound, whereas Keane are more light which is strange as I don't think of happiness when I remember the dirges almost they produce...
