THIS IS NOT THE FINAL VERSION OF MYLO XYLOTO?

Featured Replies

Just a few tweeks will make it much better IMO. The start of HLH and Chris Martin's vocals on it are horrible. As are the vocals in Princess of China.

I like that the vocals on the album aren't "perfect," and that there's a few guitar "mistakes." Makes 'em sound like actual humans.

Fairly sure that's not gonna make any difference at all, the difference is not massive at all.

The radio versions played were the same. This is the final version

And, maybe they played the promotional copy?

Wouldn't surprise me, I'm fairly sure the radio has some system of optomizing audio as well, which would explain why it sounds allot sharper on the radio, as well as if they played a high quality version.

:facepalm:

HLH sounds to hard sometimes... some drum sounds are too heavy which ends with weird effects on my headphone. The rest is fine.

So... Is it different or is it not different?

I honestly don't see why EMI would 'leak' a sligthly worse version of the album.

They didn't, someone who had a promotional copy leaked it.

I think this just a way to stop fans downloading the ablum!! The leaked album, the one all we have downloaded, comes from a copy given in shop....so....even the cd that is gonna be a promotional cd??

Same thing happened with Hail to the Thief. I'll be interested to see the changes, if indeed there are any.

Could be, but most of us agree that HLH is a little rough...so maybe or maybe not...worth hoping for!

This also happened with Dave Matthew's Band...so we'll see

so what time exactly, is the japanese retail going onsale? when will we have final word on if this leak is legit or not? Im kind of antsy and anxious. either this is the real leak, or its not the final version, one or the other. i dislike not knowing one way or the other. if its legit, we deal with it, and have the album. if its not the final version then we know to wait.

If that's true, it doesn't really matter. We will all buy the real album next week anyway. Right guys?

 

Of course, I know I will have my physical copy! Hehe, we still have to support out favorite artists, amirite?

No, it is not the one in the shop. It is a promtional copy of the album a.k.a. unfinished version.

 

The songs are amazing, but they sound.... like they're missing something? I thought it was just me, but looking here confirms it. We do not have the final version of the album.......

 

Do you guys really think the band who "has to have the album stripped from their hands" is going to leave a single mistake on the music? No. They have and will always be perfectionists.

Yeah! I have noticed that in some parts the songs sound rough....but i thought it had been done that way....in 7 days we'll all have the real ablum..so we'll see if it's the truth!

 

EDIT: Mmm...it's possible that all we have is just a promotional album....because #42 wrote that even the group members are disallowed to listen the songs again....because maybe they're trying to stop freebooting!!

I agree, completely...and there is absolutely a mistake or two on HLH.

I'm just not hearing these album-breaking mistakes that other people are hearing.

how you you know its the unfinished version? unless you are a record store owner and have been told this, or are part of the EMI crew, or are a part of the Coldplay organization and management, i think its silly to say one way or the other with certainty, like you did, that this leak is not the final version. How would you know?

 

Thats why i said, right now its silly. its a bunch of people arguing over whether its the final version or not. just conjecture and rumors and theories. thats all. thats all we have until the band come out and say so, or the retail versions come out and we can compare.

Us against the world, second 22.

Okay. i think this isnt the real version of the album i let you know why:

 

ITIAW: "Leaked version" 4:01 Mins, Real version: 4:03

Paradise: Leaked album version: Genre : POP, Real version Genre: alternative.

 

The guitar or piano? i dont hear nothing at 22 sec, only at 23 sec (a guiter string comes lil lil lil (JUST A LIL later) and on 21 sec a wierd piano tune transition.
