busybeeburns Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Coldplay reckon "they're the worst band in the world." At least that's what they tell themselves to make sure they don't rest on their laurels. Bassist Guy Berryman caught up with triple j's Tom & Alex before the UK outfit closed out Splendour 2011 with a massive set in the Amphitheatre. "We always feel like we're the worst band in the world and that's what keeps us going," Berriman admitted to Tom & Alex. He went on to say the band's upcoming record, their fifth, is still on track for the end of the year. "We were in a studio in Japan the other day trying to finish it all off and we always keep hold of it until someone wrenches it out of our hands. The idea is that it's come out at the end of October which is still looking pretty good. We're just finessing it on the road. We're going to be doing some mixing in Los Angeles when we go there tomorrow and just putting the finishing touches to it. For the most part it's there, it's been quite a long process we've been working on it for about two years but I think it's sounding great though. It's very different but still song based and very melodic. People will hear quite a big change in the sound." http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/musicnews/s3282906.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crystaline Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Moving To Mars needs to be on the album. I don't care if the other songs make the final cut or not. Especially ETIAW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InATelescopeLens Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 NO ETIAW!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!! :bigcry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted__Logic Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 But they already released ETIAW, MM and MTM Why release any one of them again, it gives ppl the impression that they dont have enough good tracks!!!! :bigcry: I think the same. Besides without any EP songs we could have 10 new songs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amsterdam96 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 ETIAW I think will make it. Everyone knows the song already, it has it's own video, so the boys have one less song to promote on the album, because it has been already. It's rather clever really.

I don't care about that. I only care about the album's composition. If it's a well-put-together album, I couldn't care less about it on a song-by-song basis.

thetelephoneline Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 only MM is confirmed as a LP5 song, ETIAW & MTM not. I think MM is the new Lost, and MM on LP5 would be another version of MM then on the ETIAW EP. maybe MM on LP5 is called Major Minus Media? like the pics on Guy's jacket.?

Abracadabra Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Yaay, Up in Flames! Made my day :) And I'm so glad guys prove we can only guess at the final tracklist and never know it for sure. I'm so tired of those predictions, there are like three threads discussing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimixxx Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I'm so tired of those predictions, there are like three threads discussing it. Agree!! I mean each to their own, but it seems like such an entirely pointless exercise to try and guess the tracklisting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

42rock89 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Happy that Major Minus will be on the album, I do hope the album version is slightly different, I don't mean the vocal effects, im happy with that since it should fit into context with the rest of the album but something along the lines of the Osaka Sun mix of Lovers in Japan, few small changes, to make it sound fresher when listening to the album after listening to Major Minus for a few months.

Tryptophan Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Yay new stuff! Hope Major Minus will be in a new arrangement, more like the live version, with echoes and stuff. But that's just my humble opinion. I'm believing the EMI money-grabbing theory by the way. And Life Is For Living, yeah, that's an exciting new track! :rolleyes4: Love the interview with Guy, really funny, also those Australians. :lol: And really, the minutes after the interview are really funny as well. Okay, I already accepted late October release. I can wait. :cool: And please, stop speculating about the tracklisting. The guys don't know either. They've got 16 possible songs. We'll find out soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Nails Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Aah, finally some news. And pretty good news as well! A big change in the sound, some very loud stuff and some very quiet stuff. Me likes! I'm absolutely fine with Major Minus making the album, I love both the studio and live version. God I'm getting way too positive here. :P Let's complain about the release date. Another three months of waiting then.... Thanks for the info everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r25d01 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Major Minus probably on the abum? => :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor!42! Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 well great to hear some confirmed things about lp5 though i would be very dissapointed if MM is on the album. I mean, it's already been released and i would personally feel a little cheated and it would just look like they're trying to filll up the album. Same thing for ETIAW, why put it on the album when it's already been released twice? I really hope that lp5 will have more than 11 songs on it. And for the october release date......well i think i can live with that :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VivaGroaning Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 lol @ the people who thought major minus was a b-side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackplay Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 To be honest, Im not happy with Major Minus making the album. It's my least favorite new song. I'm still VERY excited about LP5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackplay Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I agree with the ones who feel cheated for the boys making us buy the same songs twice or 3 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
