Coldplay - Live 2003 (DVD) [2003]

Genre: Brit Pop, Alternative, Live

MySpace: coldplay

My opinion & thought: This is Coldplay's first official live concert DVD & it's awesome. Hairs on my back tingles up when the first song "Politik" comes in, that's is just so awesome, a live concert DVD can have such influence & effects. A must see for all Coldplay fans.

Stands out track(s): Politik, Yellow, The Scientist, Clock, In My Place




Coldplay are a British alternative rock band formed in London, England in 1998. The group comprises vocalist/pianist/guitarist Chris Martin, lead guitarist Jonny Buckland, bassist Guy Berryman, and drummer/multi-instrumentalist Will Champion. Coldplay have sold 40 million albums, and are also known for their hit singles, such as "Yellow", "The Scientist", "Speed of Sound", "Fix You", "Viva la Vida" and the Grammy Award–winning "Clocks".

Coldplay achieved worldwide fame with the release of their single "Yellow", followed by their debut album, Parachutes (2000), which was nominated for the Mercury Prize. Its follow-up, A Rush of Blood to the Head (2002), won multiple awards such as NME's Album of the Year. Their next release, X&Y (2005), received a slightly less enthusiastic yet still generally positive reception. The band's fourth studio album, Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends (2008), was produced by Brian Eno and released again to largely favourable reviews. All of Coldplay's albums have enjoyed commercial success.

Coldplay's early material was compared to acts such as Radiohead, Jeff Buckley, U2, and Travis. Since the release of Parachutes, Coldplay have drawn influence from other sources, including Echo and the Bunnymen, Kate Bush and George Harrison on A Rush of Blood to the Head, Johnny Cash and Kraftwerk for X&Y andBlur,[7] Arcade Fire and My Bloody Valentine on Viva la Vida. Coldplay have been an active supporter of various social and political causes, such as Oxfam's Make Trade Fair campaign and Amnesty International. The group have also performed at various charity projects such as Band Aid 20, Live 8, and the Teenage Cancer Trust.


Live 2003 is a live album by English rock band Coldplay, first released in November 2003. The set features concerts filmed at Sydney's Hordern Pavilion on 21 July 2003 and 22 July 2003.

It was nominated for "Best Music Video: Long Form" at the 2004 Grammy Awards.

The song "Moses", exclusive to this album, was written about Chris Martin's wife Gwyneth Paltrow. This song inspired the name of Chris and Gwyneth's second child, Moses Bruce Anthony Martin, born in 2006.

Mono - The Sky Remains The Same As Ever (DVD) [2008]

Genre: Post-Rock, Neo Classical, Instrumental, Live

MySpace: monojp

My opinion & thought: A well-presented music DVD about Mono, a must see for all Mono's fans.

Stands out track(s): Not mentioned



This DVD was filmed and edited by Teppei. He is well known figure as "photographer specialized in live music" in Japan. This is his first video he has ever created.

He made five roundtrips among the continents and spent more than sixty days to film the band. And at the end, he had over a hundred tapes to work on editing. Teppei's original vision and skill to capture a moment, that has been nurtured as still photographer for many years, is vividly reflected in the moving images in this DVD. He succeeded to seize the beauty, intensity, liveness of MONO's live performance.

Only a person who gained band's trust this much could have done.

As Teppei traveled with MONO on the road for many days, he filmed the audience of many countries and showed us the band's off-stage life on the road including the reunion with the band's close friends.

This is a feature film of raw passion, that goes beyond the borders and creates one exceptional craziness among people of different color of skin, different race and different language. Filmed, Directed and Edited by Teppei Kishida
