In 2005-2006 Coldplay embarked on a worldwide tour under the Twisted Logic Tour. Despite the fact that X&Y became the best-selling album of the year and debuted at number one in the charts of 20 countries, critics and fans received the record more coolly than with previous records of the group. In 2004, the group rested on their laurels and recorded their next album, X&Y, which was released in 2005. From 2002 to 2003, the band was on a world tour, covering five continents a live DVD was released as a result of the tour, and at the end of 2003 Coldplay readers recognized Coldplay as the "Band of the Year". The album also received a Grammy for Best Alternative Recording. The group quickly "conquered" Europe despite a more modest success in America, the first album there eventually went double platinum, and in 2002 received a Grammy as the best alternative album.Ģ002 saw the release of A Rush of Blood to the Head, which included hits such as In My Place, Clocks and The Scientist. In 1999, Coldplay began work on the album, and in 2000 they went on their first tour and released the single Yellow, which made the group famous in Europe, so that by the time the first album Parachutes (2000) was released, they already had numerous fans.
COLDPLAY ALBUM RELEASE DATES CODE
As a result of internal conflicts, the group developed a code of conduct based on democratic principles in it, in particular, it was written that the profits from the recordings would be divided equally, and anyone who was noticed using hard drugs would have to leave the ensemble. This was followed by the signing of a five-album deal with Parlophone and the release of The Blue Room EP, during the recording of which Martin kicked Johnny Champion out of the band, and then begged him to come back and started drinking to celebrate.
The first demo releases appeared already in 1998 (Safety EP) and 1999 (Brothers and Sister EP). The current line-up was formed by 1997, when two more students of the same college, Berryman and Champion, joined the duo (the latter first played the guitar and piano, but, if necessary, retrained as a drummer). Coldplay members Chris Martin and Johnny Buckland met at University College London in 1996 and immediately decided they would start a band.
