arschpoeler Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I don't know if anybody has listened to the German radiostation Einslive recently but two days ago, they mentioned that LP5 was going to be released on July 1. On their website, the following article appeared: Coldplay: "Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall" Lang erwartet und schon von Chris Martin vor langer Zeit angekündigt, ist nun das neue Coldplay-Album endlich fertig. Damit feierten die Band am vergangenen Wochenende bei Rock am Ring und Rock im Park eine große "Wir Sind Wieder Da"-Party. Mit dabei hatten sie auch die erste Single aus dem neuen Album. "Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall" ist eine absolut positive Gute-Laune-Nummer, die vom Sound stark an die Songs des letzten Albums "Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends" erinnert. Der Sound also ähnlich, aber die Optik der Band hat sich geändert. Liefen Coldplay zum letzten Album noch in bunten Armee-Jacken rum, wird nun auf den Graffiti-Style gesetzt. Auch das Cover zur neuen Single ist im Grunde ein Graffiti. Chris Martin erklärte in einem Interview, wie es dazu kam: "Die Idee habe ich aus der Graffiti-Szene des New York der 90er-Jahre geklaut. Es geht darum, frei und man selbst zu sein – egal, ob man negative Einflüsse um sich herum hat. Graffiti heißt sprechen und einer Leidenschaft folgen – auch wenn alle dagegen sind." Die neue Single "Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall" ist ab jetzt im Handel erhältlich, das noch namenlose neue Album erscheint dann im Juli. Außerdem sind Coldplay im Sommer auf vielen Festivals zu sehen. At the very end, it says that the new album is going to be released in July. (source: http://www.einslive.de/musik/neu_fuer_den_sektor) Yesterday, I sent them an email asking how accurate this information was and this was their response: Generell ist es natürlich unser Bestreben, nur Informationen weiterzugeben, die auch der Wahrheit entsprechen. Somit ist auch die Aussage, dass das neue Coldplay-Album schon im Juli erscheint, durchaus verlässlich. Unsere Informationen erhalten wir größtenteils durch das Management selbst oder Pressemitteilungen. Sie stammen also ebenfalls aus sehr verlässlichen Quellen. Basically it says that they only use information from very reliable sources and that this information likely comes from press releases or directly from the management, so it is very reliable. Could it be that LP5 is already going to be released 3 weeks from today and that we don't have to wait until October??? :):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldspot Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 well I think an october release is a bit odd, really. July 1 seems more realistic considering the dates of their other releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReecyBoy42 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I stand by October. July is in the middle of all their festival dates. Why would you release an album then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 That would be awesome! But unlikely. I think August/September would be more realistic. I know Radiohead does that kind of "OMG OUR ALBUM IS OUT FRIDAY EVEN THOUGH WE'VE BEEN MIA FOR 5 YEARS" a la "King of Limbs" but that's because they're on their own label and can do whatever the fuck they want. Coldplay's EMI sure as hell wouldn't let that fly, especially when Coldplay is such a huge act for them. They would demand a hell of a lot of promotion. Although I guess we can all dream... :thinking2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brent Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I speak some German. All it says is that it will be "commercially available in July," I believe. Which anyway is good news, but coming from a radio station in Germany it's not super reliable. Do we have any real German speakers out there? I just took a few German classes. Hopefully it's true though! Upon Googling every variation of "Coldplay July 1" all I really found was this thread of Coldplaying and the original source. Where do you get July 1 from?

Jenjie Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 if the Oracle said recently that the album isn't finished yet, surely july 1st is too soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arschpoeler Posted June 10, 2011 Author Share Posted June 10, 2011 I was surprised myself by this piece of information, too. They said "July 1" on air two days ago. In the article it only says that it will be released in July but it doesn't give the specific date. Usually Einslive is pretty good about having accurate and the latest information. They have already organized two secret shows for Coldplay (in 2002 and 2005) and Chris has already been on air a couple of times to promote the albums... I just thought I'd share it with you guys but of course I don't know whether this information is true. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Leo Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Oh I don´t want to let myself dream away that it might be released on July 1....disappointment would sting! I sadly also stand by a release date in the Fall, however an early release date in the summer would be an amazing surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TyM218 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 English translation (courtesy of google translator. Not the most accurate, but effective) Long awaited and already Chris Martin announced long ago, is now the New Coldplay album finally ready. Thus, the band celebrated last Weekend at Rock am Ring and Rock im Park is a large "We're back '- Party. With this they also had the first single from the new album. "Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall "is an absolutely positive feel-good number of Sound very similar to the songs of the last album "Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends remembered ". The sound that is similar, but the look of the band has changed. Ran Coldplay the last album even in bright army jackets around, is now on the Graffiti-Style set. Even the cover of the new single is actually a graffiti. Chris Martin said in an interview how it came about: "The idea I had from the graffiti- Scene of New York of stealing 90s. The idea is to free oneself and be - whether it has negative influences around them. Graffiti is talking and follow a passion -. even if all of it, "the new single "Everybody Is A Teardrop Waterfall" is now available in stores, which still nameless new album will be in July. Coldplay are also in summer many festivals. Generally, it is of course our desire to only pass on information also true. Thus the statement that the New Coldplay album in July, appears quite reliable. Our Information we obtained largely through the management or be Press releases. They are therefore also very reliable Sources. My 2 cents: anything is possible, look at what radiohead did with king of limbs - announced it days before its release.

Major_Love Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 The radiostation has wrong info. The album isn't finished until now as you can see in the oracle answers - consequently I don't trust them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Let's overthrow the Oracle. This is clearly the only solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagooUK Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 The article says Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall is similar to the songs of the previous album, therefore it can't be trusted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandyAndy136 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Yeah, very unlikely. Perhaps a second single...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kmm1482 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 This information is DEAD wrong!!! As per the bands messages about still working on the album as of RIGHT NOW, almost NO promotion yet. Whoever believes this is an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nattatouille Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Releasing the weekend after Glastonbury? But before a large quantity of other festivals? Slightly dubious in my mind. And July 1st is a Friday... Which Coldplay have just shown, they won't do (delaying ETIAW in the UK to ensure their sales all tally for this week for the charts). EMI also wouldn't let this happen I'd say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radiohead did that because they don't have a label to tell them how much promotion needs to be done before a release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimixxx Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Nah, not buying it. Like it's been said they're in the middle of a festival circuit, there's no way EMI would let them release an album when they weren't able to to promote it properly. Plus according to yesterday's blog they're still working on songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartjo Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I'm with fall-season. I think that is just guessing because usually bands release new single about a month before full length LP. But we don't know if ETIAW is on LP5 yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplaybeatles Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 The article says Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall is similar to the songs of the previous album, therefore it can't be trusted. Haha I agree, really what a horrible comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anniea89 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I hope not. Where's the press push? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a-chan Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 R#42 and Debs said the tracklisting isn't finalised yet (as I suspected, they're testing song during festivals and see which will make the cut afterwards). PLUS, in his last blog, Miller said they were still writing! So I doubt it will be out on 1rst of July (time to press and CDs and stuff?!)....wait & see but I think it will be between end of august->october.

PurpleMartinSt Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I dunno. I'm thinking more of a winter release, maybe even a Spring release sadly :c I mean, who KNOWS how long it could take them to finish a song :c Besides, I don't want it to be rushed...Especially after this last song. Which sadly, I can't stand. So if it's anything like the new song, give them as much time as they need to make sure they don't make a whole ALBUM like that :c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
