Sonic security-blanket

Pity the pop critic who has to review a Coldplay album, polluting his/her consciousness with aural kebab. 

In the Independent, Andy Gill dodges the distasteful task of discussing the latest album by explaining why Coldplay are so dreadful: whilst their music isn't 'bad', it hypocritically fails to acknowledge its utter vacuousness. I agree.
