Administrators stephen Posted October 17, 2019 Author Administrators Share Posted October 17, 2019 Its even crazier to think the site was going to go under a few instances in the past. Imagine not being able to go through this on this forum if we did close the forum! Was extremely close to shutting down in 2015 days before the album was about to release. The team worked so hard to make sure it stayed up! 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prco1994 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 The real question is: when do you think any sort of announcement would come out? Noon EST? Afternoon? I’ll be on the lookout for noon as it seems like a common time for stuff to get announced 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lennyrott1 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I bet a single drops tonight or tomorrow. I don't think they'd go to all this teasing this week if they didn't intend to share new music. Trying not get to my hopes up -- I remember the teasing for Midnight and the teasing for AOAL and both times Coldplay convinced me they were trying to go "alternative" but didn't. But this time... that poster and these symbols seem to be indicating some return to worldly, acoustic sounding music? Side note -- but the symbols remind me a little bit of a mix between Arcade Fire's Neon Bible and Bon Iver's 22 A Million. Obviously not identical but getting those vibes. Been doing this dance since I was in eighth grade right before Viva came out :D "For all of you new to the forums, savor these teasing moments" - Old Man Voice 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like, right now, people are coming, but let’s suppose other 4 years pass, what do we do? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc90 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 There were rumours that suggested music either today or tomorrow. Not sure about time zone, but definitely keep an eye on twitter, maybe set your notification on. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_escapist Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 It is possible that they will continue teasing for a bit more. I would not be so sure that new music is going to be released tomorrow. Hopefully yes, but let's remember that the real teasing has merely started. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To save Stephen from having to be blunt, to make sure the site never dies, pay the site money! The site didnt go down because the owners didnt love the band anymore, but because it was a net loss having to keep it up. This could be as simple as giving the site views, turning off/whitelisting adblocker for the site, etc. I dont recall if Coldplaying had merch, but buy merch, etc. Just use the site, engage in discussion, make/share content, offer to help be part of the team perhaps, participate in the movements and projects, etc. It all adds up. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnaMarie Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 So!!! Coldplay’s official site has the moon and sun logo (everybody knows that I suppose) But, does anybody knows if it does anything? Hehehehe I tried clicking everywhere but no! Has someone else tried? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hehehehe I tried clicking everywhere but no! Has someone else tried? Our resident hackers checked the site code and it seems its a teaser for now. But it would appear something, a short video, some music, is going to appear there any day now. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes!!! I’m new in this site and I truly love it!!!! I know there are real, true fans here!! You don’t know how hard it is to just meet “occasional” coldplay fans and not being able to have deep conversations about this amazing band! I shall never let this site die! 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnaMarie Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Guys!!!! The release of a single MUST BE TOMORROW!!!! It just has to be!!! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prco1994 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I hope they announce something today with a release tomorrow, I don’t mind no release today I just want an announcement I can’t even work like this hahaha 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a2iel Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Also wondering... is that moon and sun art the full artwork or a piece of it? Like how the rings were part of the AHFOD artwork. Also are they for the new album or just the new single? Hmmmmm 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maeli Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I bet... single drops tomorrow and Album announcement with tracklist and pre Order also tomorrow 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoyo2000 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I also think the moon and sun are just part of the artwork like the flower of life was on AHFOD. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gai Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I was half expecting an announcement, a teaser or something for 9 PDT. Looks like not happening. Maybe something at midnight EST? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplaykb Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 My guess is an announcement tomorrow that will tell us album release date, tracklisting, pre-order, and single release date (which will be next Friday). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yanksrock1000 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 This is so exciting. I love how the November poster is just popping up around the world. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Wow, getting on here to read of all the wonderful news developments ! The new symbol looks decidedly oriental. And that source code is so intriguing - why only Chris and Guy though ? Is this the first Coldplay album where some tracks have been written by half the band only (remember Conscious Pilot only being by Jonny and Will) ? What if the "Wedding Band" on the poster points towards this music being a marriage of East and West, the Orient and the Occident ? It all makes sense now that they hired a cultural advisor for the Middle East. They probably wanted to make sure not to step on anyone's foot with their release. I wonder if 'Le Trio Joubran', that Palestinian band Chris was seen with, is gonna be a collaboration. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a2iel Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I also think the moon and sun are just part of the artwork like the flower of life was on AHFOD. Yeah, hopefully! So that way we haven't even sen the complete artwork then! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldplayer1964 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 This is Can we just talk about how exciting this all is hahah. It has been four years since AHFOD although to me it feels like last year! I haven't seen this amount of people on the site in years. Thank you all for your continued support :D This is so exciting!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoyo2000 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 That source code seems weird to me, because yesterday I got an SMS from my mobile network provider about a contest winning tickets for Jordan! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miha Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Don't forget Chris had visited Jerusalem many times - Jordan is not far away, Ammam is actually close to Jerusalem. Surely innovative ways of going live this time, with perhaps smaller venues as well. Can't imagine them just doing stadium tour. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
