Green Cap Man Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 That's news to me. I thought in general, the genesis comes from Chris and he works a bit on it, and gives it to the rest of the band to layer stuff on. I mean, that's how my own band do it. We've created stuff as a group as a jam, but the best ideas seem to find us when we're on our own. I actually would be more surprised if the band need to be around each other all the time in order to create good music. I think they only come together once they have a good base down from Chris or whoever. Your idea is correct in one hand, because the great ideas appear when we're alone (like Magic and Guy). But they also need to spend much time together to record the songs and for what I see they are always separated (London vs Los Angeles) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidA Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I don't we're gonna get another pop album, they already made enough pop songs. It would be cool if they would make a progressive rock album or an album like viva with real drums and guitars and not synthesizers or electronic drums. If they make another pop album, I will be very very disappointed. Fingers crossed they make a rockier album ✌️ I'm fairly confident this is going to be a pop album, lots of horrific "feel-good" songs like Miracles - It's called A Head Full of Dreams ffs. IDK, I just feel that Ghost Stories, with the whole stripped-back theme, was a good chance to try out more experimental and alternative music...which they only did on Midnight. Chris probably sees that as an alternative record and AHFOD will be a return to pop form. Again, just think of all the amazing musicians and genres out there...Aphex Twin with his contortionist melodies and icy beats, Sigur Ros with their epic orchestral rock and progressive tendencies - even U2 would be an interesting collaboration if they could find form. But no, Chris is working with Rihanna. *Sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvdmm Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 ^ My feelings exactly. Only thing I know for certain is they probably won't turn into maroonfucking 5. Just the thought of that gives me panic attacks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

getithom Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 What's up with the bitterness? We genuinely have no idea what LP7 will sound like, or if AHFOD is even the final title. Sometimes I'm convinced Coldplay fans *want* them to release shitty material so it can properly be made fun of. We still have a while to go until an announcement is made. Let's just enjoy the fact recording is happening, because it should be another fun ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 LP7- "A Head Full Of Dreams" The last thing I want is for Coldplay to release "shitty material". But yeah, all we can do is sit back and wait patiently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ov3la Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I'll be very disappointed if they make another pop album. 2 pop albums are enough. Go back to arobtth or viva style of music coldplay. You need to. Even x&y sound would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HurtsLikeHeaven42 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Look. I'm all cool for something new, and of course we can all have a very very good guess that AHFOD is going to be poppy. I am okay if it's positive styled music. Like if it were songs full of Miracles, DLIBYH, ASFOS (without too much EDM) and that style, I am fine with that. If they went full on legit pop and started using electronic drum for every song, with a 4 chord song, and totally useless, unexciting guitar parts with simple melodies, for every single song on the album, that's where I will be quite annoyed. The one off radio pop song, fine. But a whole album, sorry not really my thing. Of course I would absolutely love AROBTTH/Parachutes styled album, but that's not happening (this time round anyway). So essentially in my opinion: Overly poppy, sounding like its a new teen pop sensation artist - Not cool. Happy, positive music that makes me feel good and it builds up and has nice parts from all the boys - Great! Parachutes/AROBTTH styled album - I must be dreaming! :P But hey, it's more Coldplay and I'm excited either way! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't listen to Jc, it's practically confirmed. Guy will be starting up his modeling career while Chris and Johnny will become gardeners on the frontline. Will will become a swiss army musician.

The Philosopher Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Now I'm wondering why A Head Full of Dreams has to be a "positive album"? I mean, we are guessing that just by the title? Because if that's the case, it could also mean completely the opposite, like someone feeling at the bottom of a well and just thinking about other perspective and how bad things could change someday in the future and turn into good things. This could also be their darker album to date, maybe this is the missing piece of the puzzle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they are capable of making album that doesn't have a darker sounding track on it, but that said I think LP7 has to be overall positive feeling. Ghost Stories overall was somber and kinda sad, and Jonny already said to Jo Whiley that the album was kind of sounding like the Day to Ghost Stories' Night. Plus, Chris as the principle songwriter seemed a lot more positive and confident than ever before by the end of the GS era. But I do agree with you. I think it would be awesome if there were just as many nightmares as dreams on LP7 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ov3la Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Chris already said the album's going to be uplifting and colorful. It seems to me like they're recreating a sequel to mylo xyloto? I just hope a head full of dreams sounds more like viva and less like mx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sa_spurs_tx Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I'm excited.. I don't care how it sounds, I just like how Chris said the songs will be uplifting and how it's an awesome time for the band right now. Great songs have come out of studio and he knows it.

ov3la Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I know. It's called viva la vida or death and all his friends. That album was their last great album. Mylo xyloto and ghost stories were good but way too poppy. Hopefully a head full of dreams won't sound like their last two albums. Something different would be great.

The Philosopher Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Wait... correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Viva La Vida or Death And All Of His Friends called just Viva La Vida at first? So maybe A Head Full Of Dreams turns out being called A Head Full Of Dreams or Nightmares Living Inside My Head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
