A Rush Of Blood To The Head
Even if you don’t like Coldplay, you have to admit that they have one of the best fanbases of any musician. Go to Metallica, you have a bunch of metalheads that believe in only one genre of music and can’t seem to tolerate others’ opinions (especially Megadeth fans). Go to Panic! At The Disco, and you have some annoying people that, while more respecting towards personal musical opinions, seem to have this cult following to their bands and a tendency to combine all, I don’t know, 4 bands that they enjoy into their username. Then you’ve got bands like Coldplay, Weezer, Radiohead, Red Hot Chili Peppers etc. that are so welcoming and tolerant. Imagine that.

X&Y all the way. Then rush of blood. Then parachutes. Then ‘daylight’ before ghost stories – MEH to the rest. I never could see what the fuss was about Viva la Vida. Have given it a good go, but nope. Nothing. LOVE X&Y. One of my favourite top ten albums of all time. Thanks
Death and all his friends

You could maybe do a album ranking of U2´s albums (since Coldplay were influenced by them), or maybe a Lady Gaga album ranking, since I think that she experiments which each album and constantly is developing herself as an artist. 🙂
Different people have different opinions，whatever i don’t like this rank!
the list can go either way or their last 3 albums as being the worst since it seems like they sold out their sound to a poppy electronic sound besides a few exceptions, still wishing for a pre 2011. more alternative rock sound for Coldplay’s next album though

Gosh… I never thought of ranking Coldplay’s albums … it’s tough as a Coldplay fan. If I had a gun to my head, in my heart of hearts I think Viva La Vida is Coldplay’s strongest album (imo). I’m also thinking about every song as well.. the only one I wasn’t as passionate was “Yes”, but I don’t skip over it, it works with the theme. I was so lucky to see them live during their Viva tour!! ♡

2. Viva La Vida
1. X&Y
I can’t rank those albums, they’re all my favourites, Coldplay is my favourite band. Sure their style changed a bit with time but it will always be my favourite band.
Viva la Vida = Rush of blood to the head = X&Y = Parachutes = MYLO XYLOTO = A Head Full Of Dreams = Ghost Stories
My personal list:
7) Mylo Xyloto
6) Ghost Stories
5) A Head Full of Dreams
4) Parachutes
3) Viva La Vida…
2) X & Y
1) A Rush Of Blood To The Head
I grew up on XandY so I guess I have some bias, there is not a bad song on that album
Okay, it may be their most popular album, and say what you will about it…
But VLV or DAAHOF is one of the greatest albums ever as far as I’m concerned…
Edit: WOOHOO!! VIVA LA VIDA NO. 1!!!!!!!!!!
I’d say their last three albums are Coldplay trying their hardest to remain relevant in a world that turns its back to alternative music in any shape or form
1. Parachutes
2. Viva La Vida
3. A Rush Of Blood To The Head
4. X&Y
5. Ghost Stories
6.-7. Two of the other ones, not really bothered, awful records
