Why Coldplay consciously recoupled before possibly fading away

“… Drifting across a foggy Italian motorway “somewhere between Marino and Milan,” Coldplay drummer Will Champion says the album’s overtly positive message is no coincidence but, likewise, was “not cynically devised in that way.”

“It’s just seems to be the way things come out quite often,” he deadpans over the phone in a taught British accent. “Trying to convey the message of optimism in the face of all the difficult things that you can go through in life — whether they’re trivial or seriously big events.”

In turn, Champion says A Head Full of Dreams was meant as a “breath out,” both on a macro (“In uncertain times, with terrible things happening frequently all over the world right now, we wanted to have a record which inspired people to come together and work with each other rather than emphasizing the differences between each other“) and micro level, envisioned years ago as a colourful companion to the dark, EDM-infused melancholia of their last album, Ghost Stories, which focused on singer Chris Martin’s divorce (conscious uncoupling) from Gwyneth Paltrow.

“We knew right from the word go that we were going to follow [Ghost Stories] with something that was a bit more grand: a bit more in an extroverted and positive.” Champion says. “They were always going to be together: the breathing in and then the breathing out.”

Negativity & Coldplay

I have seen a lot of shit going around lately, specifically about Coldplay. One of my favorite internet stars completely shat on them, and that fuckin’ broke my heart. Then someone that I went to school with, who knew that I love Coldplay, and also who knew that I knew that he found Coldplay complete shit and total sell-outs, put something up saying that AHFOD is throw-up material. I know that that first one isn’t a personal jab because stars don’t know their fans on a personal level. The second one may be a personal jab, but I could just be a pissbaby right now.

Idk.

Anyway, there’s just been so much negativity associated with Coldplay lately and I don’t know why. Because of it, though, I have been very hesitant about posting about how much I love the new album. Every time I post about them, in fact, I feel more and more like trash. I feel like no one cares, and I feel like I am the only one who enjoys their content. (I know that I always have you guys, but let’s face it: you’re just people on the Internet.) This whole thing could be a “me” problem, you know, being in an environment that makes me feel small when it comes to things I love. Or maybe it isn’t. Who knows?

The main thing that is bothering me the most is that when I look around my room and I see my Coldplay posters, I feel like I’m in a 16 year old’s bedroom from 2003. I feel like I’m complete trash for liking something that gets so much negativity. I just feel so bad for liking them, and I am afraid that they are going to start losing their magic (pun not intended) soon. I really hope that that doesn’t happen because so much time and money has been put towards them. They have been a part of me for so long, it feels like they’re one of my best friends. And now what? We’re drifting away into different friend groups?

Idk.

I just…I feel so awful about this whole thing. I don’t know what’s going on with me. I am starting to lose so much interest. In Coldplay, in the world…nearly everything.

Please tell me everything is going to be okay.
