Don't you see irony?, this lad is doing a good sarcasm about how easily non-prog bands enter to prog archives, If I understand as this, I agree with wtmoore.

I cant believe this crap. If Coldplay deserves to be in the progarchives why
not Deep Purple or Simple Minds. We had this conversation in recent
posts. I dont want to ear it again Mr. go to your bed this instance

Yeah I agree with everyone else so far. They're a good pop/rock band but not prog. NetsNJFan is absolutely right. If this sight keeps adding bands that aren't really prog they might as well just call it RockArchives.com.

Nope. Good, but not prog.

It is obtuse to consider Coldplay prog, let alone a good band.  They are nothing like Radiohead. 

Coldplay are a dull, drab, whining little band.  The vocals are dreadful and the music totally uninteresting.  They are a success because of the marketing machine.  If people delved deeper they would find a whole host of bands who do the "coldplay" thing a thousand times better.  Check out The Gloria Record for instance.

If we, prog listeners, just accepted what was thrown at us by the marketeers of the major labels we would all be listening to cr*p and wouldn't have discovered the really interesting music this genre has to offer.  So why do this with mainstream pop?

Come on people, open your ears!

Coldplay: good band. Many proggers like the band, that's why the question is not so strange as it seems. It's not prog, though, so they shouldn't be in the PA.

Has the topic already been covered several times? I'm surprised. But hey, I'm only 3 months hanging out on this forum. I'm practically a newbie  .

Still, the search function is a great help to avert the (not so blind) fury of the forum veterans  .

All that has to be said on the subject has been said over and over again in other threads ...

BTW: Muse are much more prog than Coldplay, and even they are not enough prog to be included in the archives.
