i think its just coz Zane Lowe is doing the breakfast show and he has called up most of his friends to make it interesting for the listeners not really into his style of music:shrug:

 

so im not expecting any new news but u never know

David Grohl and the strokes did announced that their albums were being mixed and will come out in near future on his show these past few days

Sounds promising. I'm crossing my fingers for a release date.

 

Hey, you never know.

So this is how we found out about things having to do with VLV:

 

 

 

March 17 2008--Screencaps of newly designed website found by accident by Coldpatrix

March 18 2008--Rollingstone.com reports that Coldplay's fourth album will be called Viva la Vida and will be released on June 14 (later updated to June 17 later that day)

March 19 2008--Prospekt says that the album will be called Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends

March 20 2008--Rollingstone.com releases the first print interview with Coldplay in the studio

April 11 2088--Tracklisting posted on Coldplay.com

April 13 2008--Violet Hill announced as first single

April 29 2008--Violet Hill premiered on XFM and released for free on Coldplay.com

May 7 2008--Viva la Vida put up for sale on iTunes with no warning

May 9 2008--Full version of Lost! and Life in Technicolor put online (I think we found them by accident and weren't officially posted), US tour dates announced, free shows announced

May 15 2008--Violet Hill video leaked

May 21 2008--Viva la Vida iTunes/Apple ad released

May 22 2008--Death and All His Friends premiered on Greys Anatomy

June 1 2008--Viva la Vida played live at the MTV Movie Awards

June 2 2008--Chris and Jonny give an interview on KROQ in California, acoustic version of Lovers in Japan played on Q Radio

~June 3 2008--Chinese Sleep Chant, Yes, and the album version of Lovers in Japan used in an official promo video on YouTube of the boys in the studio

June 4 2008--Album leaked

June 6 2008--Album streamed on Coldplay's official Myspace

June 11-17 2008--Album released in various countries

 

And then the rest of June was jam-packed with appearances and the like, but this is how the schedule of announcements and releases went.

 

 

 

That was probably way more detailed than anyone cared to know, but I keep pretty extensive records of things that go on in my life, and in 2008, that included Coldplay-related things :P.

 

The thing with that release was that most of the tracks trickled out in one way or another before the actual release...I wonder if they'll do that again? But we got a title and release date three months before the official release, and I think that's a pretty typical timeframe, so maybe that's what we can hope for this time around? :shrug:

:lol: I'll say "excited" rather than impatient. I actually feel pretty patient for this album compared to other releases from other bands this year, but hey, if they're willing to dispense info about it at any time, then I'm going to eat it up :P

^i just have a feeling its going to be a typical coldplay interview with stupid and vague answers:blank:

 

David Grohl and Nikolai from the strokes were forthcoming abt their albums

but i don't think our boys will be the same:shrug:

There was a print interview in January talking about Brian Eno working with the guys on Glass of Water (http://www.coldplaying.com/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=4020&theme=Printer) and also a number of track names revealed in February (http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/coldplay-at-work-on-something-different-for-upcoming-album-20080227).

Wow, why do I not remember these articles? :thinking:

 

Awesome, though :dance:.

There's an 8 hour time difference between CA and the UK. But with XM's BBC1, there is a tape delay of 5 hours as it is broadcast on East Coast time, but is not adjusted for Pacific Time. If that makes sense...

Can someone please, PLEASE RECORD IT

Thank you, Chelsea!

I enjoyed reading it as I wasn´t following the news at that time.

Looking forward to the busy days with LP5 :D

Maybe they will tell us that the album will be released as a stand alone piece (which would make sense) then release seperate songs as singles like wedding bells.........

I'm very interested about this interview, not least because it doesn't take two of them to idly chat about bits and pieces of what we already know about.

 

 

this

I'm still not gonna get too excited about this - Zane has had a week of exclusives, obviously he's going for a "exciting new albums of 2011" type theme, he's friendly with Coldplay, there's every chance he's just asked them to come and talk about the new album in general - I'm predicting vague answers and definitely no announcement.

You know, the 7th (tomorrow) is my birthday...

maybe they're all going to go on zane lowe and sing happy birthday to Jamie.

what? they might.... :dozey: :P

yeah I just saw this on facebook.

it's just an update really on how they're doing.

I don't expect a revelation.

You knever know...

 

Maybe they'll announce that they're gonna do Glastonbury... I would be very happy because I have tickets!

+1

At best, the name of the album...

Oh, that's true. Although I thought Eavis was supposed to be the "official" announcer of headliners, which oddly enough he hasn't done yet, he seems to be a bit late on that.

Maybe they will tell us that the album is finished...........

I would be really surprised if they didn't play Glastonbury tbh.

 

Even if we're not gonna have any big announcement I think it's gonna be interesting nonetheless to know what they're planning to do this year, and I trust what Will says more than Chris for sure
