Having heard a decent sample of the material that might appear on LP5, how does, or how do you think it will compare to the boys' previous work?

Well, based off ETiaW I don't think it will match up, but going off Major Minus and Moving to Mars I would say that this album could be up there with Viva and ARoBttH

 

I'm not terribly impressed with Charlie Brown (ducks stones), but Hurts Like Heaven is alright and so is UAtW.

 

So . . . better than X&Y but not quite as good as Viva I guess :shrug:

This work will be the best thing ever.

The End.

The new stuff is definitely more guitar-heavy than their previous work. Jonny has had a lot of influence on all of the songs' structure I'd say. I think it's going to be wide variety of different songs with heavy guitar influence. Compare ETIAW to Hurts Like Heaven, they're completely different. Same with Charlie Brown and Major Minus. They don't sound alike at all. Princess Of China is the biggest change. I noticed though (with the HD version of PoC) that some of the effects I can hear resemble the effects of Major Minus. There's some semblance between the higher octave voice effects in Major Minus and the unorthodox chiming riff in PoC. They all somehow fit... I can't seem to put my finger on it but there's a weird thing that ties the songs together. I think -when the album comes out- we'll be able to see what substance brings these tracks together. As for right now, I'm starting to see how the graffiti theme and the music create a cohesive, seamless ambience.

To me, it will either be...

 

... Parachutes > X&Y > LP5

 

Or

 

... Parachutes > X&Y = LP5

LP5>VIVA>X&Y>Parachutes>A Rush

ARoBttH = Viva > Parachutes = X&Y

 

And so far LP5 is somewhere there in the middle

NAH!!! AROBTTH CAN'T be your least favorite can it???

I didn't mean it's bad. I just like the others more.

LP5 > Viva La Vida or Death And All His Friends > X&Y > A Rush Of Blood To The Head > Parachutes

I wish we could call it something but LP5 :embarrassed:

Hurts Like Heaven is far my new favorite music on the world ever.

:laugh3: lol that's cool. It goes AROBTTH>Viva La Vida>Parachutes>X&Y for me. I hope LP5 beats them all!!! :cheesy:

I hope LP5 beats them all!!!

+ 18484984651847

Parachutes >/= AROBTTH > Viva > X&Y > LP5 so far.

 

I really hope they surprise me.

For me, it's Viva > X&Y > AROBTTH > Parachutes, so it's the more recent the better - here's hoping LP5 keeps up the trend! :D

Rush = Viva > LP5? > X&Y > Parachutes

Parachutes

A Rush of Blood to the Head

Viva/LP5

X&Y

Viva>X&Y=AROBTTH>Parachutes

 

Most Poeple will say: what Parachutes last?

 

I say: Yes.

 

Because i think Coldplay went better and better and Viva actually hit my Taste of Music.

The most of my Favourite songs are from Viva and the EP.

I hope LP5 will do the same.

Id have to say: Viva, AROBTTH, X&Y, and then Paracutes. Thus album will be brilliant, but personally I dont think they can top Viva, that was their Opus.

It will be up there with Viva and A Rush ob Blood to the Head - definitely. I'm sure. Maybe its even better...

Viva>Lp5>X&Y>Parachutes>A Rush Of Blood To The Head

Viva>Lp5>X&Y>Parachutes>A Rush Of Blood To The Head

What part of FL you from? Im over in Melbourne.

LP5 = AROBTTH = VlVoDaAHF = X&Y = Parachutes

 

I love them all equally... :)

nah, it' X&Y>LP5=AROBTTH>Parachutes>VLVODAAHF

Well, based off ETiaW I don't think it will match up, but going off Major Minus and Moving to Mars I would say that this album could be up there with Viva and ARoBttH

 

I'm not terribly impressed with Charlie Brown (ducks stones), but Hurts Like Heaven is alright and so is UAtW.

 

So . . . better than X&Y but not quite as good as Viva I guess :shrug:

 

All three of those songs are great not 'alright'. :P Lyrically and musically.

 

ARoBttH = Viva > Parachutes = X&Y

 

And so far LP5 is somewhere there in the middle

 

I would definitely have to agree with this.

 

It will be up there with Viva and A Rush ob Blood to the Head - definitely. I'm sure. Maybe its even better...

 

I'm thinking/really hoping the same.
