Vitamin Z Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Even *if* Timbaland and co are producers, I highly doubt they’ll be producing every song. Think about songs like Lost! which have that RnB sound - it fits perfectly into what most regard as a perfect album. I’m thinking this album is going to be a real mix of styles which I love the idea of - I mean VLV even had shoegaze! Given the 1919 promos and the musical piece in the teaser, I really don’t see this being as full blown pop as AHFOD Unless Stargate get involved anyway! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Jordanator Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I think all the Timbaland could possibly provide is a good drumbeat. Think Apologize by One Republic 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowCouldIForget Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I think all the Timbaland could possibly provide is a good drumbeat. Think Apologize by One Republic I actually much prefer the original version's beat that OneRepublic created. His version strips out the violin and puts in a generic-sounding piano. IIRC the guitar is taken out, too, near the end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taikatalvi Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Sigh while I should've expected posting about Timbaland would suddenly trigger people it's still disappointing. Seriously guys? Well, yes? As surprising as it might seem, some people are not into this sound and are going to complain. Many others love it. That's life. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gai Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I think we might have been unnecessarily biased towards expecting an experimental album based on a random tabloid article. One of those really unreputable tabloids at that. That's on us. I'm letting that idea go and keeping an open mind from now on. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you might like it ! https://www.coldplaying.com/forum/index.php?threads/the-ultimate-oldplaying-thread-s-bs-tbr-p-arobtth-x-y-vlv-pm.104785/ By the way this situation right now is giving me flashbacks to the Oldplay/Newplay battles in the LP7 thread, which was really ugly in parts. Let's all respect each other's opinions and not start something like that again. 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onlylove Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Well, yes? As surprising as it might seem, some people are not into this sound and are going to complain. Many others love it. That's life. *shrug* still disappointed that it caused a negative vibe. As an original fan from the Parachutes days nearing my 40s, I think it's just inevitable that a band is going to change with the times so they can stay relevant. Otherwise we would have no new Coldplay music at all. If you would have preferred that then I don't know why you are STILL a fan. That's my opinion and that's life too. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gai Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Ok everyone. Back to the original topic. Think we'd get another teaser today? Or any this weekend? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowCouldIForget Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Ok everyone. Back to the original topic. Think we'd get another teaser today? Or any this weekend? I'm not sure. Was that snippet the 30 second Trouble in Town teaser? I think it was only 15 seconds but I have to believe that's what they were talking about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that was the teaser to be honest, cause the 30s Trouble in Town teaser was supposed to be on the website. Maybe we will get another bit tomorrow...on SUNday ? 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
42Escapist Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Ok everyone. Back to the original topic. Think we'd get another teaser today? Or any this weekend? I hope we get more this weekend... hopefully whatever that is in the website code. Chris and Guy acoustic? We never really see just them playing anything, it's usually Chris and Jonny when the full band isn't involved. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gai Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Yeah have a feeling they would embed a I hope we get more this weekend... hopefully whatever that is in the website code.

A proper song snippet next world be great. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shred Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Timbaland might be producer. Oh god no. I just lost all hype for this album. Lol. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcebatofvalikinRRBZ8 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Timbaland might be producer. Oh god no. I just lost all hype for this album. Lol. I haven't. Cause I dont care about producers. And mostly because I don't understand it and just ignore it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueMonkey Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Why you guys suddenly upset? No songs have even come out yet and you’re already sounding like you won’t like LP8. I don’t care about producers. I care about the music and sound. So these producers don’t bother me one bit. And I don’t understand production of music. I agree, Coldplay always come back with things I like. I remember back when Viva came out and people complaining about the sound change saying it "didn't sound like Coldplay" but people on here years later are now hoping for Viva part 2. I'm always excited to hear what they do next, whether their working with Rik Simpson, Brian Eno, Stargate or Timbaland they're such a talented band and I'm glad they continue to evolve other wise we'd of spent the last 17 years listening to them remaking AROBTTH. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueMonkey Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Also Timbaland's done a lot of great work on the albums he's worked on. 'Until The End Of Time' & 'Suit & Tie' by Justin Timberlake are still masterpieces to me. Not to mention the whole 'Loose' album by Nelly Furtado which Chris wrote 'All Good Thing (Come To An End)' for :sun: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reflektor! Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Hopefully they're just sharing it as former collaborators with the band. Please, LP8, don't sound like E-Lo. Please. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pattypaper34 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 My thoughts: This album will be called 1919. Not classical or jazz but lots of 1919 influence with song intros and outros. Next year, a more modern Coldplay sound on an album called 2020. Any reason this guess not as good as any other? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your username reminds me of a lyric line from another band that somehow mirrors the hopes/loss of hope some of us have right now: "I thought i found a connector...it was just a reflector..." :) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
