Why is this recommended with Viva la Vida?
I was interested in trying out some new music and thought I'd give this a try. In a word...suck. I can't even tell you how sucky and boring this music is. It is a total joke that amazon tries to sell this together with Viva la Vida. It's not even similar, except for possibly the first track, which is bearable. It's sloppy, pieced together and pretentiously "international." If this is international music, spare me. Normally I'm a very subjective and unbiased person but this is too much.
