^ Just the single is out on the radios tomorrow... no info about video or anything

I went back to the illustrator/art director Alex Fuentes' blog (http://losfokos.tumblr.com/). he has an update as of Aug 1, posted below. He says the video should be completed this (last) week...

 

So… hey.

 

It’s official. A couple weeks ago the band Coldplay announced the project I’ve been working on. It’s basically a comic book mini series telling the story of their main character Mylo Xyloto. Which is also the name their latest album. The mystery behind this peculiar name baffled their fans for quite sometime. Originally the comic was supposed to be an animated film but time was an issue… and so our sequentially illustrated version was born. There is still some talk of the film being made, though.

 

Mark Osborne, director of the first Kung Fu Panda, is writing the comic, along with script writer Dylan Haggerty. Steve Hamaker, colorist of the classic Bone series, is also on board.

 

The first 3 issues are done and I am currently working on the 4th. Also in the works is a music video I helped art direct that coincides with this project. That should be wrapped up sometime this week.

 

The book will be released in Feb, 2013. A small run was sold at Comic Con a few weeks ago and possibly another batch will be available prior to it’s official release. The cover for this pre-release was done by Vladmir Shelest.

 

Lots more to come…

^This is gonna be an animated video of mylo Xyloto's parents

p.s I was in next (english cloths store) and heard this version on the radio :D

I love the artwork, I love Hurts Like Heaven :dazzled:

WOW well done!

Well done!

A few weeks ago i already posted that surprisingly HLH was played on our german radio-station (SWR1),i really went like that ->:stunned::stunned::stunned:

 

As for the video (if there will be one), i would like to have something as the ETIAW-Video,colourful and energetic. This would be a great final for the MX-Era IMO...

 

I just was thinking the same for the video, with a lot of colour and paint cans, very energetic, also for the radio version I would say that there could be a 10 secs intro (the last 10 from MX)

Great video!

I have a bad feeling that we won't get an instrumental this time...

^ me too :S

Great video!

 

Thanks :)

Goddamnit. :sad:

ME VANTZ AN INZTRUMENTAL!:mad:

^Really want an instrumental also.

Might bid for the promo.How come it aint up in the recordings section of Coldplay.com ?

I was almost thinking there wouldn't be a promo, sad there's no instrumental

Now what the heck is that( I'm sad.

Last single off MX, no b-sides, no nothing...

So what, for the next album it's going to be just one HALF of a song per single?

 

This is true. These 1-track digital download singles are really starting to get on my pip. One or two an album, fair enough, but all but one?! :P Incidentally, I've noticed that the only ones keeping the art of the B-Side going recently have been the non-electronic indie bands, groups such as Maximo Park and the like.

I know this maybe jumping, does ANYONE know when the video will be out?

we already know what its gonna be about.. hurry up and show us coldplay! stop teasing

Concerning the video, I found this quote..

"The music video for Hurts Like Heaven will be released sometime in August according to San Diego Comic-Con International. They say it will be an animated music video based off of the Mylo Xyloto comic series."

Not sure if this is believable, because August only has about a week left. If it is true, they'd better release it soon!

Hurts Like Heaven enters the Alt. Rock songs this week at #38.

Keane are still doing b-sides as well (and good ones at that), which makes me very happy... They say they only do it for the fans, which I think is brilliant and the way to see those songs: as a way of getting an extra song to your fans. But the b-side is indeed dying and it's an utter shame.

Any news on the HLH video?
