you'll find that "Politik" from the album "A rush of blood to the head" was a little too New Wave for my tastes. But then X&Y came out in 2006 and I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically.
The whole album has a clear, crisp sound and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that gives the songs a big boost. In 2008 They released Viva La Vida, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Violet Hill," a song so catchy that most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends. It's a personal statement about the band itself.
