Amazon.co.uk Review:
Music doesn't come more touching than Parachutes. With their debut single alone, the emotion-fortified "Shiver", Coldplay proved they could shift between elated and crushed in a breath as singer Chris Martin poured out music's oldest chestnut (unconditional yet unrequited love) with the shakiest of voices and a backdrop of epic guitars that rouse and tug at the heart strings. For 10 tracks on Parachutes, he comes out with these, adding new-found meaning to the most tired and overused rock sentiments--love found, love lost, love unrequited, hurting the ones you love and the struggle that is life--over acoustic guitars and emotionally fraught rock. And for once, all the clichés ring true, thanks to Chris Martin genuinely sounding like a man picking over the bones of his life and soul, coming up with equal parts reasons to be cheerful and seriously depressed. Not that Parachutes is a depressing album; there's too much conviction to the guitars and hope in Martin's words for that. Instead it's a beautifully tender balance that comes as close to perfection as anything that's come before it. --Dan Gennoe

- Trancendental
Parachutes is still my favourit album from Coldplay. This album contributed to coldplays success with great songs Shivers, Yellow, High Speed, Everythings not lost. What can I say one of the best English bands ever.

- Over hyped with not much much substance
The songs on this album are ok but that's it they are just mediocre. There are good musicians at work here but somehow the sum of their talents adds up to something which leaves me uninspired and untouched. There are better songs on "A Rush Of Blood To The Head" but Coldplay are still overrated. Best songs by far are "Trouble" and "Shiver" but download these. Don't waste your time and money listening to anything else off this album because it won't get your blood pumping. Good music to send you off ... Read More

- Classic, but not their best
Emotionally unsettling and uplifting in equal measure, simple smart records are sometimes the best. Some of Coldplay's best work is here along with the souring choruses that they would perfect with the next album.
Chris Martins voice may lack the beauty of his counter parts but it works for his character, he feels vunrable and troubled and immediately identifiable that's exactly why Shiver was such an outstanding debut single. Slowly building momentum with guitars into a pure jam of uplifting ... Read More

7 years on and Parachutes still sounds great. The first time I ever heard of or saw Coldplay, was on the much missed channel 4 music show hosted by Jo Whiley. The video for `Yellow' was shown and I was hooked instantly "You know I love you so".
A lot of music fans at the time dismissed Coldplay as a poor Radiohead tribute act, but I always felt they owed more to the Verve (no bad thing and possibly benefited from their demise) but regardless of how derivative Coldplay were, `Parachutes' is possibly ... Read More
