On their official instagram, they have been posting on reels for a while. Remember when we all thought we'd see them spell out MOTS but then they didn't? Well I think MOTS is going to be a "Greatest Hits" Album. Each song posted on reels will be the albums content. They just ended with what some would argue to be their best songs. "Viva La Vida," and "Fix You" Perfect finishers for a Greatest hits album. We may be looking at a December 21st teaser and a January 13th release. The 21st because of the alignment and then the new moon of January on the 13th. Thank you for coming to my TED talk Thoughts? I don’t think quite like that. Maybe they realise an lp with work cut off from all past eras. But whether it’s that or a new era with big mainstream lp I don’t think they’ll realise something that they have already done.

Shiver98 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Finally, dropped the theory that today we were going to have a teaser. At least they have launched flags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miha Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 I think we can all agree that the album is not finished (since Guy posted a guitar from a session a week ago) and that it would be unwise to release it now. There is going to be probably no concerts in 2021 yet so I think they have enough time but if it weren't for the pandemic, there might have been something by now.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Divutian Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 I don't like the idea of a Greatest Hits album. They have such a deep discography and nobody knows about their best songs, only the pop ones. Making a Greatest Hits album would just cover up their good songs more. I hope they go with @Shiver98s theory, but it's all up to the band. But i hope they release new music soon. Everyday Life has been the only album i've lived through (I started listening to them seriously in around 2018) and now i know how hard it is to wait for a new release? 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for LP9, every time I see a theory I want it to be true but I think at least until March they will not release it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tookacardown42 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 IThis makes a lot of sense. The spiral galaxy represents Mylo Xyloto, the earth represents parachutes.

The only question is why the rest of the band is indicated there as owners O_o @sa_spurs_tx Edited December 31, 2020 by Nikolette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WskCarlosG Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 I'm sorry for my english... but i have a theory... And... I thing that I have evidence that MOTS will be a part 2 of Mylo Xyloto. The neon colors and the space theme fit very well as a sequel to this album. Let me explain: In the Mylo Xyloto's comic there are some vignettes (passages) as well as characters that refer to the name of the songs, for example: Aiko (unreleased song) Major Minus, Us Against the World, Car Kids (another unreleased song). Now from what I see they just registered the trademark 'Mylo' which is the name of the boy that appears at the end of the video "Hurts Like Heaven" (*Not to mention they are also working "Rescue St.") So, everything it seems to indicate that we will have a sequel. Or is what I think. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miha Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Perhaps MOTS might be a "spiritual" successor to Mylo Xyloto, but I don't believe it will be promoted as a sequel. The band have always claimed every album as a separate entity...each with their own motifs and genre if you can call it that. Let's wait and see though. Hopefully we're in for a good surprise. As long as the music is good, everything else comes second! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like Everyday Life was a spiritual successor to VLVODAAHF in terms of soundscapes and album composition. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miha Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 It's funny though just how much music came from the period when they worked with Brian Eno. Even 10-year old demos or ideas have made it onto new records... I know the band have their own take on this but surely at some point to work again with Brian might work wonders for new sound.

lennyrott1 Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Interesting. It'll also be the 10-Year Anniversary of MX this October, so it's possible they are also working on a re-release or remaster featuring some unheard b-sides. But I don't know. Coldplay doesn't strike me as a band that would do a re-release, greatest hits, or a sequel to a former album. Overall I'd be really excited if the Music Of The Spheres is a spiritual sequel to MX mirroring VLV and EL, @I ran away I still predict MOS will be a pop rock album that has some singles going for a shiny, atmospheric 80's revival vibes and dance grooves. Given the success of The Weeknd, Dua Lipa, Doja Cat, etc, I could envision Coldplay bringing back the sounds of New Order, Duran Duran, A-Ha. MX had some 80's/Springsteen elements imo, especially on charlie brown. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WskCarlosG Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 (edited) I agree. I am currently hooked on the sound of "After Hours" n' "Future Nostalgia". It would be great if Coldplay follow the same atmosphere. It could be a bonded success... and maybe The Race will find an album that fits...

Lamebutiloveit Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 I was wondering whether anyone thinks that Music of the Spheres will be put on hold, and another LP will be released before it? I was anticipating that MOTS was going to be a large touring album, but as Coldplay-sized tours seem very unlikely at the moment, maybe the band have used COVID times to work on new, different material that may be more suited to release without touring. Thoughts? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe some old demo ideas could be useful to release as an album with no need of an extensive tour. 22 hours ago, I ran away said: Yeah, agree.
