Coldplay was a short time trend. DMB lasted a few albums. But U2 held on through several musical landscapes. Acting Baby and Joshua Tree are just fantastic albums. So whatever you feel about the first two, marry has to be U2.

I'll have to differ with you on the idea that Coldplay was a short-term trend. 25 years, 100 million+ albums sold, lots of awards (mostly British?), and the list of accomplishments is much longer.

That said:
F: Coldplay
M: DMB
K: U2

I'd challenge some to listen to U2's Boy and War as if it's 1980. Not just singles, the whole albums.

Pretty incredible sound and vastly more real and intense message than 99.9% of rock/pop.

I get why people aren't fans into the 90s and until today.

I'm not some U2 superfan but if anybody put those albums in their top ten I'd totally get it. If people had DMB/Coldplay albums in a greatest of all time list I'd probably scoff.

I wish there was a "yawn" reaction available.

Uhh. Coldplay has been selling out massive stadiums annually around the world for 20+ years. In fact their last tour was the biggest global tour of 2022.
