Coldplay have a long-standing tradition of coming out with the ugliest album covers known to man. Their latest album, X & Y, certainly is no exception. Yeeecckk!

Again…
It looks like a detonator.
I don’t get it. Or maybe I do?
I don’t know… the new songs better be good.
What’s up with the scary/weird/’I guess I’m the only one who doesn’t get it’/'must be a British thing’ covers?
Oh, well… their music DOES kick ass, despite the album covers… (must be a British thing).
Apple.
hmmm… perhaps an attempt at making an iconic cover in the mould of Peter Saville’s ‘Power, Corruption and Lies’ cover for New Order, but without the craft, nor relevance to the music.
oh my god
what is wrong with them
Who cares? it’s just a cover, they’re “about the music, man”
It’s a fantastic cover. can’t wait to see it progress.
how coldplay got their ugly cover revealed:

Personally, I love Coldplay, and I think that the cover doesn’t matter, it’s what’s inside that I’m looking forward to. You all know the “Don’t judge a book by it’s cover” rule and it greatly saddens me to think that people these days are as judgemental as some of you. “Oh my god, what is wrong with them”, ah yes, I’m sure you are on the highest tier of the intellectual ladder. I doubt that there is anything wrong with them, and would hope that some of you have actually taken a second to listen to their music before you bash their creative individuality…
It’s not as good as “A Rush Of Blood To The Head”. But this is Coldplay, and they know what there are doing. It’s a cool CD, maybe as good as “Parashutes”. – Everyone should have one… From one between legions of fans in Denmark…
Why is there 30 seconds of dead air at the end of track 12, Twisted Logic?
If you listen closely enough, you’ll hear the voices of ghosts.
