It's pretty good. Gets better on repeat listenings. I'm only disappointed they couldn't do more with that terrific changeover in "42".
Yeah, the last third of 42 is just a complete mess.
The album is really great pop rock. Coldplay has really mastered making an extremely wide-appealing album. While the album as a whole may not appeal to everyone, there is a song on the album for everyone.
It's easily weaker than Rush to the Blood and probably not as good as Parachutes, but it's better than X&Y (though I think Fix You and Talk are better than anything in this album). And that's pretty much enough for me to love it.
