I know it's little early to be talking about Coldplay's 7th Album when they're 6th album hasn't even been released yet but I heard something very interesting just recently! I read online somewhere that Coldplay's Ghost Stories is a low key album and that they aren't going to have an official world tour until 2015(maybe after LP7 comes out). Also that someone from their label company said that they expect Coldplay to make a more commercial album in 2015! At first I didn't really believe it because Coldplay normally take a long time to make a studio album. But now it all makes sense to me! The way I see it is that Coldplay isn't really doing that many shows right now because they are in the studio working on LP7 + there is only 9 tracks off Ghost Stories. It also seems like from what I've heard so far is that the album revolves around Chris's breakup with Gwyneth. Maybe the band let him do his thing this time and they'll focus on something completely different on LP7! Who knows if any of the rumors about Coldplay's 7th studio album are true but it is something to think about!

yep, there is a probability of an lp7 in 2015. all signs point to this.

i hope for LP7 they release normal songs so most likely yes there will be a lp7

Please define normal songs.

^ he means songs like paradise, with a build up, catchy lyrics and chorus, the same shit you hear everyday on radio

Please define normal songs.

I think he they mean that Ghost Stories will revolve entirely around the Chris/Gwyneth break up and normal songs are whatever they would usually do.

Merged the duplicated threads :)

Every single love song is about Gwyneth.

Yeeeah, no.

Honestly what you are probably going to get is an EP like Prospekts March.

Yeeeah, no.

That's not my suggestion, it was his...

"Normal songs"? Really?

I think it's going to be an EP like Prospekt's March, called Random Acts

Random Acts?

Random Acts?

Along with Ghost Stories, it was one of the rumored names for LP6.

oh good to know!

I've been living under a large rock. Where exactly did the Random Acts name spring up from?

Someone made it the title of LP6's wiki page.

by normal songs i mean songs like politik clocks yellow life is for living etc;and ffs no i don't mean paradise (not a big fan of it).Be honest guys the new songs are dull ,less creative,less coldplay.I think somewhat after the tour starts we will get hints about a new coldplay album."But coldplay never give hints" you'll say WRONG !!!remember before midnight appeared they posted don't panic on their main page(as if don't panic guys album on the way lol )

I'm gonna have to disagree with you-- I don't find the new songs "dull" in the least bit-- I actually find them quite tasteful, and certainly some of the most musically stimulating output since the Viva era. They may not be "normal" but that does not mean they are not superb, excellent compositions-- ones that could potentially see Grammy recognition.

I remember when someone edited the Wikipedia page and called the album "Ezra's Older Adolescent" lol

You are still doing a poor job at describing to me what a normal song is.. You're only listing examples but no actual defining trait that you seem to attach to a normal song. You seem to list songs from the earlier Coldplay era and call them your normal songs and when Paradise is brought up, you make a point to discount it as a normal song (by design or coincidence and seemingly because you aren't a fan of it).

 

And another thing, i'll be honest with you like you asked. I do not think the new songs are dull. I do not think they are less creative. I do not thing it's less Coldplay.

The bolded part is not 'saying something'.

Wait what? I'm confused haha :P

Hmm, I think I read that as implying MX was very good musically. Viva is pretty good but at the same time it's not brilliant

 

(Also out of the 4 songs I've heard I disagree and think 2 are good and 2 fall flat, but that's another point)
