It is all about the British alternative rock band,Coldplay which formed in London, United Kingdom in 1997. The band comprises vocalist and pianist Chris Martin, lead guitarist Jonny Buckland, bassist Guy Berryman, and drummer Will Champion.
The band had released four successful albums, all of which debuted at #1 on the UK album chart. Coldplay have also achieved great success with their singles, such as Yellow and Speed for Sound, was the US and UK #1 single.
The story of Coldplay as the way they formed the rockband. In the beginning, Coldplay met in the mid-90s during their first week as students at University College London, and quickly became friends. Chris began writing songs with Jonny. Guy liked what he heard, and joined in on bass. Including Will, was so keen to be part of it that he moved from guitar to drums. All four shared a passion for music, and a quiet determination to be as good as they possibly could be. They rehearsed almost every night: 'We used to play in bathrooms, the basement, even in the park,' laughs Chris. 'Anywhere we could find to play.' They was having together.
The truth was that their earlier album was good but was not good enough. That was way more to trial release. Their first two years was going smoothly with their albums. At one part they plan to give more better albums with better songs. And so Coldplay did it with completely inspired, and felt they could do anything they liked. They didn't wanted to do the acoustic thing, they didn't even wanted to do a loud rock thing and also didn't wanted to react against anything. Coldplay started seeing a lot of Ian McCulloch and trying out more brilliant things. The result was songs like Daylight, The Whisper and The Scientist splurged out over two weeks, and they recorded them very quickly.
Although still recognizably Coldplay, this album is louder than the last, more uptempo and energetic. Coldplay says `the last two years, we've been like a cultural sponge. We've sucked it all in and now it's coming out on this record. A lot of it is meant to be about drive and confidence in the face of worry and insecurity.'
In that outstanding rock band, I personally like Chris Martin. He was born on March 2, 1977 in Devon, England and he was in a band by the time he had turned 15. He studied Ancient World Studies at University College London and worked as a sign painter before joining Coldplay. He is today the frontman of Coldplay, providing lead vocals, piano, and rhythm guitar. I like the way he convey himself by putting effort to upgrading the band. Moreover his creativity in delivering all his song. Its all way to close to his fan’s heart.
Overall the Coldplay story is a story about ambition. About four people who formed a band not to become famous or provide fresh soundtracks for TV ads, but because they wanted to write great songs, to make music with real honesty and passion. 'We were trying to say that there is an alternative,' says singer Chris Martin. 'That you can try to be catchy without being slick, poppy without being pop, and you can be uplifting without being pompous. Because we're sometimes playing quieter stuff, it's hard to sound like we're trying to change things, but we wanted to be a reaction against soulless rubbish.' That what Coldplay is…!!
