I reckon Chris may be in London ready to unveil all the news to a radio station. And get the single played. I reckon between tomorrow and Friday. And yes I reckon this will be a freaking amazing album, possibly their best to date.

Chris is in Malibu at the moment. As for the rest, please do happen.

I doubt this album will be their best. It will be great though, i really believe that. It will be much, much better than MX and GS. [emoji2][emoji106]

Im with you ov3la. I still believe that the album will be out like december this year. We just have to chill and wait

I'm also sure that the album drops within the end of the year.

It's the completion of something said Chris and a release 15 years after the first album makes sense.

ahhh you may have a point... good thinking! :D

I highly, highly doubt it, but that'd be nice. (Release date for new single). And this quite possibly might be their best album to date... can it top MX? That'd be quite the task, if they can do it then pretty much every song in there would be my favorite. They're off to a great start with Amazing Day, that might be even more improved once we hear the studio version. (For people who don't like it because of the cheese, you never know, they might have made it less cheesy in the studio version due to the feedback posssibly they got, just have to wait and see :D)

You honestly think MX is their best album to date?!

No, I don't agree that MX is their best album to date, but it is my favorite album to date. Difference there:P I was just questioning if Coldplay can make AHFOD beat MX in terms of favorite albums:P

 

Now whether they can make it their actual best album is a whole nother question... I personally do not think so but if they do make this album better than GS which I have a strong feeling they will, that may mean they might get on an uphill trend again and who knows, they might make something as great as AROBTTH again:P But I highly doubt they'll ever replicate that greatness...

 

Sorry, should have been more clear:P

No, I don't agree that MX is their best album to date, but it is my favorite album to date.

Ah, I see. From the context it seemed you were suggesting MX was their best album :laugh3:

Ah' date=' I see. From the context it seemed you were suggesting MX was their best album :laugh3:[/quote']

 

:laugh4: Should have been more clear on that one... of course MX wouldn't be their best albumxD

The new album will be better than MX for sure.

The new album will be better than MX for sure.

 

I really hope so, that'd make it my favorite album. After MX Coldplay will have to do a ton to make AHFOD my fav.

 

I hope that also means "It'll be better than MX" for me... and not like it's technically better than MX but I wouldn't like it as much as MX:P

The new album will be better than MX for sure.

 

Will be better? or you'll like it more? :D

 

Music is subjective. MX is by far my favorite album by them, and I think it's really hard to beat it. There's no better album than other, just albums you like more than other :)

This !:laugh3::mx:

Ov3la, please stop putting my expectations up.

If the album turns out to be not as good as you said I would be very disappointed.

 

I'm too much excited!!

*high-five* Great to see yet another person like MX as much as I do! @ your last statement, that is technically true:)

 

I hope it'll beat my impressions of MX... AHFOD better be amazing if they are not to do another album for at least 5 years after that.

I am getting quite excited for the new album too.... hopefully @ov3la's word is right! :D

 

If it'll beat MX for my fav than it'll be freaking amazing. :P

 

It'll be very disappointing however if it isn't better than MX.

 

But so far from what we've seen there is good signs that AHFOD will be a great album! :D

Both! [emoji23] I think it'll truly be better because they're adding horns and violins. They've never added horns to any songs except for Now My Feet Won't Touch The Ground. The new album will be different than GS which is a positive for me, (GS was good but not great.)

Though I really hope you're right ov3la, I just don't see Coldplay creativity in this moment capable of doing an album at the level of MX.

 

Still, hope you are right!!!

Once the band releases the new single we'll have a good example of how the album will sound like. [emoji6]

X&Y was delayed because they wrote four albums' worth of songs

 

I want to hear these songs so badly. I'd be much more excited for a release containing scrapped songs than a new LP. Hopefully in twenty years or something these gems will get leaked. Imagine a disc set "Coldplay unreleased".

The album may or may not be better than MX but will it be better than one of the acclaimed classics like AROBTTH ? I bet not. (Don't wanna hurt the MX-likers feelings there, and I'm not talking about person's favourite albums, but it is inarguable that AROBTTH is more of a classic in Coldplay history and music history than MX...:))

:mx::D

 

I agree. I really hope they can beat MX as my favorite album. We just have to wait... And yeah, amazing you love that album as much as I do !!

Sadly I could agree with this after hearing Amazing Day... But I don't know, my hopes are still up :)

The addition of some elements don't make something better or worse, but the way they are used. I really hope you're right, hope we don't have to wait to much to figure it out. And agreed with you about :ghoststories:, it could have been so much better (but I still like it :laugh3: )

Pitchfork is super hipsterish. People were hating on MX for pop sound when it came out, it would be mainstream to rate it low so they rated it high (my assumption). I think the album itself has grown a lot on me. I've noticed this that when Chris likes something/a song, I generally tend to not like it at first and then it grows on me.

 

As for album ranking, I would say Viva La Vida > AROBTH > Parachutes = MX > Ghost Stories > X&Y (for me)

 

On topic, I do think they are taking more time than usual for release of a shot music video which generally means they have gone to the drawing board. In terms of contract, is this is their last record with the record company?

oh lord. i cant

 

Haha. I like pitchfork actually for discovering new music. I discovered arcade fire through them and generally their post rock artist section is good too - like NPR.

 

Also, although I've discussed a bit of the music I heard during the shoot - I really wanted to discuss more of what I heard and I thought I'll be able to do it soonish but now because of the delay... I'll still put the release date of the song as late October (no hunch - just a guess - don't convert into a rumor and start expecting things)

Ohhhh so there's actually a delayyy...... ohhh. :(

 

Not sure why Coldplay couldn't just release the audio if they're having problems with the video.. hopefully it comes soon.

 

Honestly, unless the video is super-complex like The Scientist, you shouldn't have to wait a month plus for the MV to be released... just look at ASFOS. It got released literally 2 days after it was shot... unfortunately it just didn't want to happen this time :( It either must be super complex, or they're having editing problems, or stuff got mixed up, or data was lost, or whatever. You're right, it has to be a delay. Hopefully they don't have to start over 0allll over again.

 

Now I'm sort of wishing no photos were released... yes. it let us know the band was up to stuff but honestly it's sickening having to wait this long... wish I never knew about it till now because I wouldn't even know about anything and I wouldn't have the stress of waiting for something I know is coming but is taking too long.

 

Also, you not knowing the date of anything slightly confirms that my theory of a surprise release may not be true... originally I thought that they told you the release date but then told you to keep it secret because it was meant to be a surprise... looks like a surprise release may not be in the cards :( But that'd be cool and it might still happen.
