Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends (Coldplay)

Coldplay's Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends is on course to be one of 2008's biggest albums. That's understandable, given that "Viva La Vida" has become one of the biggest U.S. hits of their career. However, while I like this album, I can't say it's my favourite from Coldplay. While I know I'm in the minority, I can't help but feel X&Y was particularly strong. Anyhow, the best track on this album is lead single "Violet Hill," but Coldplay fans will find several more to enjoy. "Strawberry Swing" was one of the other highlights for me.

Tracks:
1. Life in Technicolor
2. Cemeteries of London
3. Lost!
4. 42
5. Lovers in Japan / Reign of Love
6. Yes
7. Viva La Vida
8. Violet Hill
9. Strawberry Swing
10. Death and All His Friends
