Probably Bon Iver, Mates of State, and Nada Surf. What about you?

ok so maybe Coldplay is not for everyone…haha. But really, I am cool with that. I like the new record, and their albums always tend to grow on me. But that is the cool thing about music, is that you can like whatever you like. I did not make my list on what I thought people would think is cool, but on what I personally enjoy listening to.

For the record and since the question was asked: me, I don't really like Coldplay. I tried listening to this new one but it sounded like every other trying-too-hard song they've written. They've made their deal with the devil to write chord progressions that get under your skin but that doesn't make me want to listen to it again.

Coldplay would definitely be in my top 5 along with that amazing Fleet Foxes album.

Nice – I like the Bon Iver, Also the new Sigur Ros, Portishead, the Conor Oberst album and my favorite is the new Bob Dylan Bootleg that recently came out.
