Am I the only one who's sick of Chris Martin's whiney voice?

Coldplay's new album is the record of the week on Radio 2 this week, which means that every day, somewhere between 9:30 and midday, and between midnight and 3am, you'll hear a track off it.

And I'm afraid it's shit. Bland, middle of the road, formulaic, same old same old Coldplay. You've heard each track before a million times. It's the same old ticking rhythm, the same old plaintive Martin vocals.

If you like Coldplay, you'll like this album. I don't, and I don't.

I know exactly why EMI issued that profit warning.
