    Pretty sure that Coldplay’s cynical plan was to continue where Radiohead left off with The Bends. It didn’t really work.

      Prog Rock has always been a double edged sword. Most of it is pretentious garbage, but then occasionally someone like Thom Yorke comes along who is an actual generational genius and completely reinvents the genre.

      I give it another 15 years before he goes completely insane and moves to North Korea or something. Hopefully we can get at least one more album before then.
