I'm bleeding from my face because I don't think this album title is very good.

Aaaaaaaaaaanywaaay, yeah, this is a thread strictly about the title of the album, not the music or the artwork.

 

Take the fan goggles off for a second and just look at the title.

 

WTF IS IT.

If the album contents match the epic title, Mylo Xyloto will be spoken with reverence for decades to come...fingers crossed!

it's gonna be my only post about the title, I chose crap just because there are no -0 options, in all honesty for me is craptastically horrible, and even this doesn't get close to how much I think it sucks.

 

Please refrain from the usual 'but you need to listen to the music' since this thread is about the album title and not the music, once the music is out I'm gonna judge it separately.

 

edit: sorry I just saw someone already said it, it just takes ages to type with this damn iPhone :bomb:

I took eleventy-seven points off because it sounds like something Chris would name a child.

LOL

 

I think it kinda sounds like a disease...

There is a giant hole in my life now that reads 'boredom' now that we have an announcement! Good job the football season starts tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There's so few things to judge a bunch of words on. I could have just taken a random point off for the way it rolls of the tongue, really. Or given them a half for making the first part of both words rhyme. Or something.

 

I agree. But i like it largely because it roles of the tongue nicely. Not like the stumpy sloppy VLVODAAHF.

 

Also anyone out there know if there was any relation to Mylo a street artist from Britain which was speculated a couple of weeks back? I bet he's Dan A Carter!

is only me but may me they decided a name as that as tribute to Japan? it sounds as foreign as Japan to me. :uhoh: (just saying, off the guesses of the graffiti man and his works).

yeah no, it's shit.

I like it. They cant win whatever they call it in all fairness. They cant please everyone and they have worked hard on it for the best part of two years so can we just show a bit of appreciation and gratitude that we finally have an announcement

No. Mostly because I no longer care when they announce or what they announce, and I am allowed to have an opinion regarding basically everything they do. :|

 

And just because you work hard on something doesn't mean that it'll be any good. I mean, some people take half hour shits and it's still shit.

 

ALL THAT BEING SAID, I'll still buy the album (as it's Coldplay) and listen to it, but that doesn't change the fact that I think this title is stupid.

^ I wasnt saying you cant have an opinion just be a little less hateful and forceful

The fact remains that they have worked hard on it and deserve respect even if you dont like it

Since I first read Mylo Xyloto I thought it was an awesome name! :D

^ Yeah I did too, I like the way with this one and VLV it is something that is so unusual that it can only be one thing.

I like it better than X&Y and I pretty much don't care. And it is no more silly than naming an album after 2 seperate songs on the album. Everyone is going to refer to it as MX anyway, it seems like the band itself already just calls it MX.

I dont love it but I'll get used to it. I can see people on TV and Radio screwing up the pronunciation.

i like Mylo Xyloto but i don't love it. i like how it's very easy to remember, can be a abbreviated to mx for marketing and how the name is just so out there

 

btw, i just want to make sure i'm saying it right. So it's "My-Low Z-eye-low-tow"

 

is that correct?

"My-Low-zii-low-toe"

 

zii = rhymes with eye, with a 'z' sound in the beginning
