Sad

Oh 😞

Well, from the leaks we know that they have many songs from the Music of the Spheres and Moon Music recording sessions. So they have material, and of quite good quality I would say. So yes, an EP could fit in, and probably with all the material they have they wouldn't need to record anything new, at most touch up something.

In theory, they will not release more singles... I think this Shin On poster in the videoclip wasn´t a coincidence. Its some type of messege.

That "Shine On" sign clearly seen in the Karate Kid video is clearly not a coincidence. There they are wanting to send a message. Or play with the fans. I hope they release it in December but... with what format? In theory Coldplay was not going to release any more singles. An EP perhaps?

Sadly Coldplay doesn't like to do this kind of thing. Parachutes and AROBTH celebrated the 20th anniversary without any reddition or anything...

Do you know if there is a studio version of Ladder to the Sun? No songs from the AROBTTH era have been leaked?

But about the musical, do we know for sure that it is going to be done? Or is it just another rumor? It sounds very strange to me.

It is possible. In fact, in the Full Moon version we have 3 of the 7 songs. I hope we get something for Christmas.

Hello again! I take advantage of this post to ask if anyone could send me private coldplay concerts. As I mentioned above, when I changed computers I lost all the ones I had, which were many... I'm especially interested in those from the Viva la Vida tour (2008-2009) and MX (2011-2012). If anyone could share a folder with me via drive or wetransfer I would be very grateful 🙂 Thanks in advance and I hope one day the download page will be what it was again...

It would be curious if they released an EP called "Alien Hits" with those 7 songs that appear there. This way we would have that simplified version on the album that mixes the 7 and then on the EP we would have them developed.

Yes? Well, it's strange, since frndz and flifil appear at the same time on the album's tracklist...

The store is a disaster. They should be ashamed to have it so poorly managed.

(Sorry for so many posts) By the way, I was looking at the notebook edition book and "FNRDZ" appears several times in the song list. Do you know what it could be? It seems like the only song that fell off the tracklist. Could it be another aggregation of various mid-instrumental/alternative tracks like Alien Hits? I am very struck by the fact that Man in the Moon and Karate Kid do not appear at any point in the tracklist. It seems that they were never considered to be part of the album, which seems like a waste to me, because they are one of the best songs of this era.

Ey, looks great! Hopefully we'll get a full version in the future...

It always ends up leaking. It's inevitable nowadays I think hahaha Anyway, I received the CD this morning. It's been late! The notebook edition is quite nice. I hope they release more material in these weeks... maybe an EP for Christmas?

I´m in the same situation. It's hard to understand why they organized such an important launch so poorly. They should have the logistics for the CDs to arrive the week of the launch...

In general I agree with what you say. I think the "bonus tracks" that many songs have at the end are small attempts at experimentation. They are a bit reminiscent of EveryDay Life: random things, which break the commerciality that Coldplay has a bit. In the case of Jupiter, I think the "single" version, without that bonus at the end, is much better. In others like One World it doesn't bother me. In Aeterna it does look a little strange. I really like Alien Hits. It is the counterweight to Good Feelings and Feels Like. The non-commercial point. And the fact that there are two songs grouped together so that it exceeds 6 minutes (Same as One World) I think is a way to give it more weight on the album. If we take the two songs separately, there really isn't that much cut compared to the combined version of the two. I think both would be good b-sides for singles.. On the topic of so much lalalala and simple lyrics I agree. Despite everything, I think it's a good album and that it will age well over the years.

I think we can all agree that this LP is much better than MOTS. Which is very positive.

Thanks! But in both links what I mentioned happens: hundreds of concerts are missing. Before there was easily audio of 80-90% of concerts from most of the tours... it's a shame they were lost. Can't they be recovered?

After a week listening to the album I must say that it is much better than expected. It is clearly much better than MOTS. This (along with the songs we know about that haven't been released yet) makes me wonder why MOTS is such a bad album. It doesn't seem like it's a problem of lack of creativity on the part of the band. I'm not going to do a song-by-song analysis of the album now, but, in general, most of them seem good or acceptable to me. I only have plenty of IiAM and good feelings. I would have changed these two for The Karate Kid and Man in the Moon and the album would be much better. Although well, de facto both songs are from this album, since they are in one of their versions. I really like that they have reintroduced instrumentals (well done, not shit like on the previous album) and that they have several experimental tracks like AngelSong (one of my favorites), Neon Forest or One World. It feels like the direction Coldplay should be going. Likewise, songs like All my Love or Karate Kid sound like Coldplay. To what we have always understood by Coldplay. And it makes me quite happy, since I have been waiting for this for many years. I think Coloratura would have fit this album much better, and would have catapulted it to an 8-9. On the other hand, there is the issue of launches. It seems that they commented that there could be another album soon. Maybe it's another version of the album or an EP with several additional songs? We know that they have many demos from the MOTS era that they have not been able to publish because they would need many albums to do so. Hopefully we will see some of that published material. With the release of additional tracks on the full moon edition it seems we are heading in that direction.

Hi! I remember that a while ago this forum was updated/restructured and the downloads section disappeared and was replaced by a new one, the one we now have. I thought that over time all the files there would be recovered but I see that, unfortunately, that is not the case. Is there no way to recover this section? It used to be the best part of the forum. There were hundreds of concerts to listen to, from all eras. I changed my computer a while ago and I haven't kept everything I had downloaded at the time and it's sad not to be able to download it again or dive through the hundreds of files to discover some interesting concert, with a different version of some live song or things like that...

I understand you, I don't understand how they can manage pre-orders, that they have been receiving for months, so poorly. Maybe they haven't had time to prepare them... 😠 I'm still waiting for my CD too. It's unfortunate and frustrating. Also I don't understand why the "fullmoon" version doesn't come out in Europe, only in the US. What's happening, are there first and second class fans?

What song is this? Where can I heard it? Is it a demo? I don't remember having seen it published, although with the amount of things they are releasing now who knows...

Well, there are 10 songs but we don't know how long they are. Just as there may be a short interlude, there may also be one or several long songs or songs of intermediate length. I don't think we will have another Coloratura as such, but there may still be a song that reaches 6-7 minutes. Even if it is really the fusion of two independent songs as they have done many times in the past.
