10. Coldplay

Whether you love Coldplay or detest them (there does not seem to be an in between) they have set a course for themselves that could make them an early Hall of Fame entry. They have conquered both sides of the Atlantic, were constantly on the charts and they have just enough critical respect to make them a complete candidate.

Often using lush arrangements, Coldplay straddled the line between Alt-Rock and Pop Rock, giving them a mass appeal, though it also overexposed them. This led to a backlash in some circles, with an overrated claim, but this is a very talented bunch who will enter Cleveland one day.
