1) How many tracks will LP6 have?

 

13 seems likely.

 

2) How long will LP6 be?

 

50 minutes.

 

3) Assuming it will be released in 2014, which month will it be released?

 

May? It could.

 

4) Guess the new look. What will LP6 era costumes look like?

 

Casual, modern.

 

5) Where do you think LP6 will land within the broad spectrum of music genres/styles? (Pop, acoustic, straightforward rock, strings, heavy synths, hard rock.... etc.)

 

I'm kinda hoping for electronic stuff, unlike most. I like it the best. In general, darker than MX.

1) How many tracks will LP6 have?

13 normal + 1 instrumental = 14

 

2) How long will LP6 be?

~45"

 

3) Assuming it will be released in 2014, which month will it be released?

June is fine, thanks.

 

4) Guess the new look. What will LP6 era costumes look like?

X&Y+MX graffiti-clean

 

5) Where do you think LP6 will land within the broad spectrum of music genres/styles?

British Rock, Alternative Rock.

1) How many tracks will LP6 have?

11 normal(one song + 5 minutes:D) + 1 short instrumental + 1 long instrumental

 

2) How long will LP6 be?

49 minutes

 

3) Assuming it will be released in 2014, which month will it be released?

June

 

4) Guess the new look. What will LP6 era costumes look like?

Viva like but less colours , Chris will be wearing boots:P

 

5) Where do you think LP6 will land within the broad spectrum of music genres/styles?

Stripped down but yet bombastic less electronic(but still some electronic bits and maybe one electronic song) more acoustic guitars and pounding drums. Alternative Rock style.

How many tracks?

Between 11 and 14, with small intro or hidden tracks

 

How long?

No more than 45 mins.

 

Assuming a 2014 release, which month?

1st half of 2014, perhaps after February but before August.

 

Wardrobe/new look?

Obviously something reminiscent to the theme of the album and the mood of the music, but I'm hoping for something dark or casual, or casual dark, but modern as well.

 

Genre?

Probably pop-rock with some synths, perhaps more bass (like One I Love), and some piano and acoustics here and there, because you can't have a Coldplay album without Chris' piano and acoustic guitar.

Oh why not...

 

1) How many tracks will LP6 have?

12

 

2) How long will LP6 be?

Around the 40min mark.

 

3) Assuming it will be released in 2014, which month will it be released?

Late. So Oct/Nov.

 

4) Guess the new look. What will LP6 era costumes look like?

Something tone down I hope. Back to X&Y era would be nice. Nothing too flashy or in your face.

 

5) Where do you think LP6 will land within the broad spectrum of music genres/styles? (Pop, acoustic, straightforward rock, strings, heavy synths, hard rock.... etc.)

Can't say. Have to listen to Atlas first (really think the next album will head in that direction). But I want a strip back, acoustic sound. Less production please.

So what does Atlas mean for LP6, if anything?

So what does Atlas mean for LP6, if anything?

remember Christmas Lights?! we all thought how fantastic it was but at the end it wasn't similar to anything they did on MX. I really hope this doesn't happen with Atlas.

So what does Atlas mean for LP6, if anything?

I don't think it means anything at all, but, if (big if) it meant something for LP6, i guess it would be that they're not experiencing new genres but actually going back to their roots, as expected.

One month since this thread had some movement and one month until my birthday. It looks that all the excitement about LP6 has gone at the moment, but I don't want to believe that at all, so let's make some more predictions!

 

I think that there's a point that Nikola suggested but it didn't generate much expectation, so I'm gonna ask it again: how do you think LP6 will be called? Let's imagine.

 

My prediction: I would go for a long name this time, I'd like something like "Can't See The Forest/Wood For The Trees".

If they want to avoid shitty moderator embarrassing themselves by not even looking up the proper spelling of the band you are supposed to announce, they shouldn't invent a new word this time :D

 

But it's either more literal, like really roots style or something out of their imagination which (at least for me, don't know if anyone here has more psychic powers than me) seems unpredictable.

Length:

My guess is it will be 42- 47 minutes. Most likely not over 50 minutes.

 

Number of Tracks:

12

 

Time of Release:

April or May

 

Wardrobe:

Formal wear

 

Genre:

Classical rock / pop

1) How many tracks will LP6 have?

11

 

2) How long will LP6 be?

Something like 45 minutes

 

3) Assuming it will be released in 2014, which month will it be released?

April

 

4) Guess the new look. What will LP6 era costumes look like?

Something like the Viva era costumes, but darker I think

 

5) Where do you think LP6 will land within the broad spectrum of music genres/styles? (Pop, acoustic, straightforward rock, strings, heavy synths, hard rock.... etc.)

Classic rock, alternative rock and some acoustic I hope..

Well when talking in Australia they said they had a name and it was much easier to pronounce than Mylo Xyloto. And as always it has to be the title of a song.

I would love a song like Chinese Sleep Chant, with an epic solo. Love that song.

 

My fav CP song along with Harmless..

We need an album full of 'Sleep Chants' it would be magic

Btw, the exciting fact that Chris has been in a studio with U2 popped in my head by case. Just imagine: 'Coldplay - <title> ft. U2' or 'U2 - <title> ft. Coldplay' epic as heck.

I hope their album will drop when I forget about Reflektor because I'll probably be a bitch if it's not as good as it. :sad:

 

Also U2 should tread lightly, I really want their album to be great too but they can easily turn into douchebags and just put unnecessary pressure on Chrissy. :angry:

 

Either way, another exciting year ahead of us! :dance:

Chris needs some pressure, though. It makes him better. (see AROBTTH and VLVODAAHF)

^must have been the good kind of pressure. I'm only praying it's not the destructive pressure again (see MX)

Chris has been spotted in the studio with U2 in NYC so there is some form of collaboration going on between them. I wouldn't worry about it :)
