LP6

[mvpgamer]

With talk of LP6, what do you think the name of it should be? Using the current algorithm established, it's going to have a long title:

 

1. Parachutes

2. A Rush of Blood to the Head

3. X&Y

4. Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends

5. Mylo Xyloto

6. (Insert Long Title Here)

 

 

If they continue with this pattern, we can expect another extravagantly long title.

 

 

Another interesting thing to note is that it seems their longer title albums are arguably better than their shorter ones.

[MosesTheMarshmallow]

^But maybe LP6 is the end of the 2nd trilogy, so it'll have a short title. :p

 

On the bass - There are indeed good bass lines, and our asking for more isn't saying that there aren't already good bass lines, it's asking for more of what we've heard...but MORE.

[James.]

So... if the album is called Qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnmfhmtghjeshjdshjdshkjh then it will be the best album ever?

[Prospector]

^ Probably :nod:

 

But seriously, I like long and mysterious titles.

[aschall]

I'm calling it:

 

LP6: "Wrath of the Car Kids and Don Quixote"

[R's Symphony]

:lol:

I'm calling it:

 

LP6: "Wrath of the Car Kids and Don Quixote"

 

Or Revenge of the Famous Old Painters

Please no hodgepodge of Spanish (even tough i love the viva la vida title) or weird words like Mylo Xyloto which need a explanation how to pronounce it... :rolleyes:

 

Just something short, simple and pronounceable. :cool:

 

And are we getting another 'color' title?

 

1. Yellow

2. Green Eyes

3. White Shadows

4. Violet Hill

5. Charlie Brown

 

And which letter is the next?

 

'S' on Parachutes Shiver, Spies, Sparks

'A' on A Rush Of Blood To The Head A Whisper, A Rush Of, Amsterdam

'T' on X&Y Talk, The Hardest Part, Twisted Logic, 'Till Kingdome Come

'L' on Viva La Vida Life in Technicolor, Lost, Lovers in Japan

'U' on MX Us Against The World, U.F.O., Up In Flames, Up With The Birds

'?' on LP6?

 

Are we getting more then 45 minutes of new Coldplay sound? Like the last part of the 1st trilogy.

 

Many questions, many questions :D

They better do both of these things!

[Abracadabra]

^ Or else we shall no longer call ourselves their faithful admirers :dozey:

I'm guessing that next, they'll have something like "Heart (or Pot) of Gold" or "Fields of Red." Perhaps "Blue Skies Are Here Again."

 

The album title could even involve a color.

 

 

As for the letter, I'm guessing "R" or "H".

 

 

 

Side Note: Fix You has a pretty good bass line, especially live.

[KimPine]

During the recording of LP5, they have tried to make it sound like a "Cartoon's Soundtrack", but they have abandoned that idea ... Am i the only one who thought that it could be a really good concept for LP6 ?

I also have hopes LP6 will be their next big "terrific" album, seeing as, so far, their even-numbered albums are considered the best.

[getithom]

Drifting off from the album title -- who wants to guess this is the year we start to receive small bits of information on LP6? MX will be two by the end of the year, and aside from the gap between Parachutes and AROBTTH, each album has released every three years.

 

I'd even venture to say we'll have LP6 no later than Summer 2014.

[Prospector]

^ Yeah, we should hear things like "Brian Eno asks for Chris Martin to leave the studio" soon and then some news every now and then during this year.

[teernabh5]

I hope Brian Eno brings something absolutely new to the picture this time! They could get inspired by world music and stuff....I hope they take time and give thought! Its not about how early, but rather how good!

[aschall]

Lovers In Japan was the last song written for VLV, and we saw MX go in that sort of direction. Up In Flames was the last song written for MX. Maybe LP6 will be more piano-driven and more stripped back.

[mvpgamer]

I'm hoping they do explore more with LP6, and really let loose technically. The skills of all the members should be tested with their new album.

I had no idea LiJ was last. It's by far my favorite off of Viva.

 

I am still thinking we'll get an album that ends up being a mix of all their sounds. I just see it happening.

[Kingzilla]

Idk what else they could do that doesn't isolate a part of their fan base. I mean, sure, there a little things they could change, but they've done so much in five albums.

 

Parachutes they had acoustic music. AROBTTH had hard rock. X&Y had ballads and synth driven rock. Viva had an exotic feeling to it. MX was a more pop album with a touch of rock. What's next? Jazz?

 

Here's the thing, I think they can go either three directions from here. Go full on pop. Start smashing the charts, and smashing our hearts. I doubt they do that though. They could go to their roots and do rock/acoustic stuff. Or they mix it up. I truly believe that's the only way they could surprise us.

 

Some people might disagree, and if so, please tell me a new genre for them to test. I hope they don't experiment any more. I hope they find out what music they can play the best and make a masterpiece like they did with Viva and AROBTTH.

 

An album to shut up critics for good. Maybe I'm being too opportunistic, but I think other then Arcade Fire, Coldplay is one of the only popular bands left who can make an album that can be considered one of the best albums ever.

 

Let me put it this way. The closest two albums CP has done are Parachtues and AROBTTH. They are both rock, just one is more lighter then the other one. Is it a coincidence that AROBTTH is considered usually the best album with the biggest songs?

 

Not everyone will agree, but the fact that they had been playing and writing that type of music for more than three years makes me believe that you cant pull out a Viva every new album. Sometimes you have to settle and master it.

 

Rant over.

[Tash]

Or else we shall no longer call ourselves their faithful admirers :dozey:

 

I think it's fun if they continue doing this : )

[vivacleve]

I am really excited to see how the album develops from a fan's standpoint, even though the wait will be hell...

They could always explore Gothic Rock.

 

 

Or maybe do a whole album of instrumentals.

[Coeurli]

No I need to hear Chris' voice pls :bigcry:
