Coldplayfan1294 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 LOL "YAY NEW ALBU- uh I mean, it's gonna probably HOPEFULLY be good, yeah :nod:" that's exactly how I feel haha, it's contradictory, I understand. It's kind of like being excited about a new job opportunity. You're stoked about the pay increase and benefits, but you're also terrified because it's different, and unknown. This Coldplay album brings similar types of anxiety to me. I'm like YESS!!! A new Coldplay album! Oh my GOD I hope I like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I am absolutely stoked for the new album, but I am also cautiously optimistic. I definitely don't want a completely computerized album, that would really bother me. Yes. This is exactly how I feel. Especially about the entirely computerized album thing. I would probably have a conniption if that happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getithom Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 That modular bit sounded nice, but last time he posted something like that everyone also thought it might be on Ghost Stories. Turns out it was just him messing around. I wouldn't be too worried! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lennyrott1 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I really like those modular synths, even though they could be for a completely different project. For those of you worried, I don't think you should be! X&Y was largely inspired by (and sampled) Kraftwerk who were revolutionary with these synths and despite the influences it remained a clear rock album and I think the synths on it sounded great! I wouldn't mind having synths like this as the backing of tracks much like we had on Mylo Xyloto. I don't think any of us would criticize the live performances of Hurts Like Heaven, Paradise, or Every Teardrop is a Waterfall because they are really strongly instrumental, yet they all are clearly backed by heavily computerized and synthesized sounds. I agree though that having an album completely filled with this stuff would not be ideal, but as a backing track that song Rik is working on sounds really slinky and dancy :) I also liked the one that didn't end up being for a Coldplay track last year, it was beautiful.

Kingzilla Posted February 3, 2015 Author Share Posted February 3, 2015 did u notice at the end of the video, the sound of the synths was getting cloudier and changing? It feels like Coldplay to me. Also i love how Paul Epworth just comments, "See you next weekend?" randomly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nature Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 so rik simpson has been in LA with coldplay. pretty sure this is a pic from the studio: [ATTACH=CONFIG]31924[/ATTACH] x also he posted this video: maybe some synth-heavy tracks again? Sounds really nice and diffrent, hope it's Coldplay related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HurtsLikeHeaven42 Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Yeah i don't mind it either, no maybe a whole computerised album would be my favourite but as a backing or something or an intro, yeah sounds cool :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nature Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 I dont mind synths at all, but in Mx the electronics where overused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidA Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 If they want to try electronica then they should just go for it and make an electronica album rather than just taking a normal song and putting a drum machine on it and thinking you're Aphex Twin :) Don't think that'll happen on lp7 though - that feels like a beginning of something rather than a completion - so maybe next cycle - I think lp7 will be "An Album Full of Feel-Good Bright Songs That Are Better Than MX, X&Y, GS but Not as Good as VLV, P, or AROBTTH...AND NOT ELECTRONICA" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safy Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 did u notice at the end of the video, the sound of the synths was getting cloudier and changing? It feels like Coldplay to me. Also i love how Paul Epworth just comments, "See you next weekend?" randomly. just noticed the Paul Epworth comment..interesting! does that mean he is co-producing the album too?? why are Coldplay so secretive these days? I thought for GS, the secrecy was because of the private nature of the album, but what is the case with LP7? I want some Roadie#42 blogs, or some Phil comments on the recording or whatever..

Paul helped GS i think so it would make sense if he helped out there next one. Tbh, i think Coldplay is trying not to repeat a MX and tell and show the audience everything before the album comes out. I think if they do what they did with Viva, it would be perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littledoggie115 Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 "Coldplay have just registered a song entitled 'Unbroken' on ASCAP. More details as we get it!" @Coldplaying Another "On My Way Home"? or this is a real song? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lennyrott1 Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 ^Oooooooo that is a convenient title haha :) Can you get a screenshot or anything of the track? Could be another On My Way Home or maybe even a "Miracles" B-side or remix!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
