IcebatofvalikinRRBZ8 560 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 The most things we want: Tracklist Announcement from the band about LP8 on Twitter New Song/Single release. 6 Link to post Share on other sites
shred 775 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Maybe every day it’s one hour later. :no_mouth: 3 Link to post Share on other sites
I ran away 12801 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Maybe every day it’s one hour later. :no_mouth: Funny, that crossed my mind too :joy: but then somehow I doubt it is all worked out that carefully. 10 am BST for a first teaser looked rather random and had no relation to sun/moon or anything EDIT: On the other hand, that would make it 4 pm BST next Fridsy, an ideal single time. Hmmm 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Sonny 256 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Hmmm Great find. Jonny sure does love his jazz, imagine he persuaded the rest of the band to take a classical/jazz direction. That would be hilarious! 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites
merril 506 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 I think it may be they don't release anything before November 22. It's a Friday. Btw, it may not be completely new material but some songs rearranged. In any case it will not be a normal album like the other 7. Chris has said that many times during and after the AHFOD tour.

andrewsky 466 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 I still doubt that. Coldplay is a band that doesn't like looking at it's past. They hardly even perform old songs anymore or acknowledge that they exist LOL. They would never release an album of reworkings. What's possible is they use snippets of lyrics or melodies of older unreleased tracks and re-create new songs with these. I've read that the opening line in 'Violet Hill' actually comes from a song in the very early days titled 'December'. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Nie 5208 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Coldplay hasn't confirmed anything yet, so it isn't even sure the album will release on 22 November 2019. :p A fan on Twitter says that the 15 second snippet is a mix of The Charlie Chaplin's The Circus Prospers intro and MMIX. Anyone else who is hearing that? If so, it might be possible that they are rearranging older Coldplay material, perhaps even songs we never have heard before. And remember the Batman interview? I submitted the question "Being older, wiser and having a lot of knowledge and experience: if you've got the chance to rewrite 1 song, which one would it be and how would it sound?" Maybe they liked the idea after all. :D They told us they will be full of surprises. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
andrewsky 466 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 I wish they had a more diverse setlist that included older album tracks and B-sides as well. During the AHFOD Tour some of us ran this project to get the band to perform I Ran Away: ...but of course nothing happened. The request feature, which was supposed to be for older songs, turned out to be a joke sadly as they mostly chose either In My Place or UATW or Don't Panic lol. But mostly In My Place :D I later learnt they didn't even fulfill Mat Whitecross' wish of performing Careful Where You Stand on the C-stage at one of the shows, and he has been their friend for 20 years, so our project was doomed to fail. I really don't know why they are so averse to performing old songs... What!? Man that's a bummer. Love this song as well! 3 Link to post Share on other sites

yoyo2000 1301 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Now there is this: From Natacha's website: "Natacha Atlas is an internationally-acclaimed artist with one of the world’s most distinctive voices. Long known for synthesising western and middle eastern vocal traditions with mind-blowing dexterity, Natacha’s latest work sees her push vocal and musical boundaries even further by effortlessly weaving jazz traditions into her already unique blend." 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites
jc90 2733 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Now there is this: Took me a second, but it's the symbol at the end? Link to post Share on other sites
yoyo2000 1301 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 ^Yes! People on discord said she could be featured on the album and now she posts the symbol. Also her musical style is exactly what is expected for LP8! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
merril 506 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 I don’t know how to feel about that.... Nor do I. But I think we are making the mistake of waiting for a normal album with the normal course of events leading up to it. This time it will all be different. They are telling us: 'This time we are looking backwards and will simply rearrange some older songs.' Btw, Chris this year has been appearing alone on so many events as never before.. Could it be he is heading towards a solo career, though he often said he wouldn't go solo? . Well I am simply tired of waiting and guessing Time will show. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Miha 204 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Nothing new about Natacha Atlas being involved with this album, I think it's been rumoured for a week this. Really gonna be interested what all this means but I also hope this is a proper "era" where we get proper clothes, stage designs, etc.! Link to post Share on other sites
