Music reviews of Viva La Vida (2009 Tour Edition) (Incl. Bonus DVD)

Music Review: A great companion to the Prospekt's March edition of Viva La Vida.
Rating: 5 Stars

This new edition of Coldplay's masterpiece Viva La Vida features the same 10 songs as the standard version, but it also includes a bonus DVD featuring a half-dozen music videos. The first is Violet Hill, which shows the snow and hills described in the song. The second is Viva La Vida, which won the Grammy Award for Song of the Year. The video focuses on the band members but it is also very colorful and creative. Next comes Lost!, which may or may not be a live performance (I can't tell). After Lost! is Lovers In Japan, my favorite song from VLV, which I suppose makes this video my favorite. It shows a variety of images, including the band members writing the lyrics on the screen and at one point the entire video starts spinning 360 degrees. The next video is Life In Technicolor II, which is from the Prospekt's March EP. It is a new version of an instrumental, which now has lyrics. The music video for this song presents the band members as marionettes in a library puppet show. The final video on the DVD is Strawberry Swing. This song is perhaps the most imaginative song on VLV, and its music video is even more imaginative. It's hard to describe but it basically shows a superhero. In conclusion, the band probably should have released the DVD in the same package as the Prospekt's March EP so that the fans wouldn't have to spend so much money, but both items are well worth that money. Thus, I highly recommend this new edition of Coldplay's Viva La Vida.

To say there has been a lot of anticipation for Coldplay?s fourth album, Viva La Vida, is an understatement. Having enlisted legendary leftfield producer Brian Eno, borrowed their album title from a painting by renowned Mexican artist Frida Kahlo and made tantalising remarks about sonic reinvention, the world has been curious (to say the least) to hear what the ?new? Coldplay might sound like. Viva La Vida definitely makes some departures from the band?s usual formula, which happens to be one of the most commercially successful rock-pop blueprints of recent years. The plangent chords, emotive melodies, stadium-rock rhythms and universal lyrical concerns remain, but Martin and co. have gone out on several limbs here, incorporating instrumental tracks ("Life In Technicolour"), using subtle North African and Latin elements ("Yes", "Strawberry Swing"), and overhauling previously strict verse-chorus-verse structures in favour of slightly more avant arrangements. The old Coldplay still shine through (see tracks like "Violet Hill" and the title song) but even their classic sound feels more muscular and confident. The band?s new flourishes, cosmetic and self-conscious as they may be, are enough to make Viva La Vida a welcome break from the old routine --Danny McKenna

People en Español
Cuando Coldplay anunció con bombo y platillo que su cuarto disco, bajo el ambicioso título de Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends, vendría acompañado de la producción de Brian Eno, dos escenarios se convertían en posibilidad: o se trataba de su peor álbum o la obra maestra de su carrera. Afortunadamente, la producción de Eno no lleva a la banda británica a imitar a U2 por ningún momento, y en cambio, el grupo liderado por Chris Martin presenta el mejor disco en su trayectoria, ofreciendo un sonido distinto, en el que por fin se alejan del pianito hartante de sus primeros tres álbumes y suenan como lo que siempre prometieron ser: una de las mejores bandas del mundo. "Life In Technicolor," "Viva la Vida," y sobre todo el tema "Lost!," representan a Coldplay en su momento cumbre. --Ernesto Sánchez (People en Español People en Español)
