The Money Shot: If Only Coldplay Could Have Been A Little More Like The Sex Pistols...

"What if Coldplay has taken the Parachutes money and run to the Cotswolds? Jeff Buckley-esque reverence may well have beckoned - and without any unfortunate tragedies. Imagine if the Strokes had split in 2002, before they revealed themselves to be work-shy playboys (by my calculation their album track work-rate comes in at around nearly three months per song, the lazy gets). Or if U2 had split after 1980s echo-laden post-punk debut Boy? Well, they certainly wouldn't be remembered as those stadium rockers fronted by That Tit. "
