Released on 26 August 2002 through the label Parlophone in the UK, the album was produced by the band and British record producer Ken Nelson. Recording started after the band became popular in Europe and overseas with the release of their debut album, Parachutes, and, in particular, one of its singles, "Yellow".

In 2008, Capitol released a remastered version of the album on a 180-gram vinyl record as part of the "From the Capitol Vaults" series. Like A Rush of Blood's successors and Parachutes, The album was a huge commercial success, debuting at number one in the United Kingdom and later placing at number seven of the country's 20 biggest-selling albums in the 21st century. The British Phonographic Industry has since certified the album 8x platinum for its accumulated sales of over 2.6 million units in Britain and over 13 million worldwide. The album spawned the hit singles "In My Place", "The Scientist", "Clocks", and "God Put a Smile upon Your Face". A Rush of Blood to the Head has been praised by critics.

"Kakkoslevy on selkeä parannus, ja näytää oikeaa suuntaa. Juuri tällaista Coldplayta tahdonkin kuunnella. Alussa on pari hyvää biisiä, mutta loppua kohden taso alkaa vähän taantua. Kokonaisuutena tämä oli kuitenkin selkeästi parempi kuin bändin debyytti."
""Chris Martin's ambition for his songwriting is simple: "Emotion that can make you feel sad while you're moving your legs." Coldplay churn out bighearted British guitar rock on their second album, with the romantic strains of "The Scientist," "Clocks" and "God Put a Smile Upon Your Face."'"
