Been playing a rip of this on my stereo at home and I took it to work to listen even louder on a better system. Don't pre-judge by computer / headphones listening. This is one nasty mix. It's not a "pretty" sound. Love the ending which sounds like Edge or Adam just yank their amp cords out.
The bass line is sooo good. I love the drum opening that just kicks you in the face. Larry is back, baby. This will be killer live.
Coldplay eat your heart out
