20. Viva La Vida / Coldplay

So Coldplay never became what they might have been after Parachutes. The D Man has grudgingly accepted the fact that, at a minimum, the band still produces some arena-worthy anthems. On Viva La Vida, Coldplay's fourth studio album, there is no shortage of pleasers for the masses, with the likes of "Violet Hill", "Viva La Vida", "Lost," and "Lovers in Japan." But can Chris Martin and his bandmates spare us the one-world commie outfits that they wear in every video and public appearance? The D Man left his Che t-shirt at home and is starting to feel a little out of place.
