MX Graphics? Does anyone know if there are drawings or really clear images of the MX and other designs, esp. Chris's? I'm getting a friend to make me a piece of clothing with them, and she needs something more precise than gig pics. Thanks to anyone who knows. :)

Hey Guys, Don't really know where to post this kind of thing... Noob i know, but the other day I noticed Mylo Xyloto (10 letters) was the same length as my name so.. Improvising from their artwork i decided to firstly make this: Today I was looking on the Coldplay store for some T-Shirts but couldn't find anything that caught my eye all too much so i thought i would design one myself, for myself. This is what i came up with: Front: Back (Luminous Writing): Just wondering if anyone has tried anything similar and your general feedback on the T-Shirt! :) PS - Go Easy on the Newbie :D

I think another possibility for the meaning of the title could be as people are saying is the way Coldplay chose to spell the two words on the cover - Instead of Mylo then Xyloto, it goes MYL OXYL OTO Now after thinking about it, and reading other theories, and googling a whole bunch - My theory is that it's pretty clever if this is what they are intending, god I love these guys - I'm in medicine and am familar with many latin and greek roots as most of western medicine's terms are from those two languages. So here's the breakdown - Myl - usually means molar, or grinding, and is associated with the mandibiles - So both for chewing food and perhaps speaking/si…

Okay, so a couple of days ago, the oracle answered a question about some band named "Mylo Xyloto" about only having a single song, and no information on the band. I looked into it, and I found the "bands" iTunes page. http://bit.ly/1437jIy (click through to find the bands page) The song on the single sounds like UFO sound effects set to very Coldplay-esque soundscapes. On the page, there is also an album called "S.O.S." with each track listed as a different number. Each song preview sounds like something Coldplay would release. The weirder thing is that when you google search this album, you can get to a listing on some website with the album, and previews for each s…

With the new Live 2012 promo site (http://live2012.coldplay.com/home.php) Coldplay stopped using images with the MX font and started using the font itself on the webpage. They've called it "ETIAW_V4" IMPORTANT: The font they're using IS Teco's (Coldplaying user) font, but they seem to have modified it a bit. For those who want to download the "Official" font used in their website, I've managed to download it and convert it to a windows-recognizable type font. Here it goes: http://www.mediafire.com/?kflmwb51rksy342

So I was thinking today: When does the Mylo Xyloto era end? Has it already ended when the tour finished? Does it end as soon as Atlas comes out? Does it end when the first LP6 single comes out? When does Mylo Xyloto end?

Rumor is that Lindsay Lohan and Miley Cyrus are both looking for a disney fairytale love life with the smokin' hot bass lickin' babe from Coldplay, Guy Berryman. While the tabloids have been all over the Lohan aspect, a new crack in the story has appeared. Today it was announced that Coldplay would be releasing their fifth album Mylo Xyloto. When asked what the title meant, a representative from the band told them to ask Guy, that he knows. After digging into the history books, we know that Mylo is an Egyptian derivative of the name Miley. Xyloto comes from the greek term for "Tombs of the Kings" which is located on the island of Cyprus. A combination of the terms Mil…

I got it today so I thought I'd review it for you guys: It is a very well made book, it feels like something made by the band themselves! The tabs and transcriptions for Piano and Guitar are the EXACT same thing as on the album, so I was really happy about that, the printing is amazing, the quality of the book is good and totally worth the 20$. I really REALLY recommend it seriously, and I'll see if this week or the next I have time to come scan it for you guys! Also, what I love most is the feeling of playing those hard to figure out songs like MX, POC, AHT, M.M.I.X. and DLIBYH! Finally all of them demystified! :D Cheers guys!

Hello everyone, I like playing with graphics and photos. One of my friends gave me the MX-Vinyl Edition and as I love the wonderful graffiti wall I couldn't resist to make a giant scan! I tried to surf the net looking for something similar I din't find anything! Here is the link of the file color corrected and ready to use! Enjoy Matteo http://rapidshare.com/files/3914108707/graffiti_wall%20WM.jpg preview (not full-size):

So I know besides the officially released singles like Paradise, ETIAW, PoC, HLH, CB, MTM, what about the others songs. because I want to make a collage of all of the artwork covers together but I don't have ones for every song. So I was wondering has anybody made any fan made ones that look really good in good quality for every song on MX or at least one or two? Thanks!

I found a site that already posts a link to what it claims is a leak of the new album. The site had many comments from users who state they received valid leaks of other albums. If this is happening already, is it only a matter of time before a valid leak surfaces? p.s. I did not attempt the link for fear of viruses, but it seemed more legit than your average claim.

It's cool to have things, songs, pictures and other files from every era because I'm sure most of Coldplay's fans like to have some nostalgic moments once in a while. This said, I'm here to make a list of what I'm missing from this era and you guys can add yours too. Coldplay, please, I want: -OFFICIAL INSTRUMENTALS of every MX song - Us against the world, ETIAW[there are only stems from some band game], Major Minus(please!), U.F.O. DLIBYH, Up With the Birds and Moving to Mars. -STAGE GRAPHICS; aside from this and this http://vimeo.com/42977014, I would like to have the full version of the running man in Hurts Like Heaven (Walking, Running, Flying, Spinning..…

Well, I was bored and thought it would be a good idea to make the album artwork for LP5. I presumed it's called Major Minus, but kept te .PSD file so that I can change it when I find out I'm wrong :P Used everything I've learned from studying graphic design. At first I analyzed the style of the new album, and drew the conclusion that it's a mix up between white rose foundation and new york graffiti (concrete and rose references everywhere), so i mixed up those styles and the conclusion was this: What do you guys think? (and perhaps feel free to give your say on how you would like the new album artwork to look!)

If the band does go the route of a space theme then the golden arrow could be related to the stars. I could see a lyric like "They shot across the sky like a golden arrow" BTW wasnt there a rumored song a while back for LP5 called Shooting Star?

I really dig the yellow watch model Chris is currently wearing. I found the model and bought out the last 2 at my local watch shop and have an extra available up on eBay for any fans that may be interested here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/110766167016 http://coldplay.com/newsdetail.php?id=829 EDIT - This may not be the exact 6900 model he wears on stage, but it's close.
