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'.

Will should definitely do lead vocals on (at least) one song finally. His singing is great.

Okay, think I gonna sell my hopes for 5 bucks now.

Ha! So I was right that it sounds cinematic.

I just checked out that teaser video on Twitter. Someone here said it's a bit Arabian, another one said it's a bit Jazz. lol It just sounds very classical to me. Maybe a bit cinematic. Either way, I like it! This is exciting times really! And oh yeah, I think it's the outro of an album track.

Nope. That's when their 'second chapter' is ending.^^

I'm one of them. Well, now it looks like we predict the release of the other album.^^

I'd say somewhere between page 119 and 142. :p

Either an album is coming on 22 November... or the actual announcement will be on 22 November. If it's the former, maybe an announcement is coming on 22 October... Or 20 October? (20+22=42)

Recently the site comes and goes quite often. Some server issues?

Sgt. Buckland's Lonely Champions With A Guy Called Chris. ;)

Okay, either they actually are very old (which I doubt) or they discovered/built up a time machine (which is more likely). :p

Coincidence? 42 ... "Time is so short and I'm sure, there must be something more". So... they continue doing music together.

Two albums now? I obviously missed something.

Another guess: Moon Shine ?

I've listed the b/w music video thumbnails (except the ones that were originally intended that way): - Violet Hill - Life in Technicolor ii - The Scientist - The Hardest Part - Yellow - Paradise - A L I E N S - Up & Up It's weird. Not all videos/thumbnails from the certain eras are in b/w now. Hmm, what do these videos have in common (apart of it's the same band)?^^

Maybe 'One Hundred Moons And Stars Suns'?... Meh, sounds similar like Snow Patrol's A Hundred Million Suns.^^

Just saw they've changed the icon on their Facebook account. So, something's coming up very soon. Now I've seen that 1920s band picture here. They gonna do Dixie Jazz now?^^ [Edit:] I think '22 November 1919' somehow could be a hint of new music release(s) on 22 November 2019. 1919-2019 is one hundred years. Maybe there'll be a song or album title that has something to do with the number 100?

Hey, sorry but didn't we have this topic (incl. poll) already here? https://coldplaying.com/forum/index.php?threads/lp8-thread-coldplays-upcoming-album.110824/

If that's true then I hope it'll be more X&Y and less AHFOD.^^ Back to the roots (Parachutes and before) would be even better!

Okay that's a hint to a Rush Of Blood box set. :p Although, for an anniversary a bit too early.^^

Maybe it's just me but I think MYLOXYLOTO and A Head Full Of Dreams are so similar, they could be like Volume 1 and Volume 2. From the newer LPs I love Ghost Stories, especially as it contains a sound that fits good to the band's earlier period. 'Oceans' sounds nearly like a re-found Parachutes era track. I wish they would do more of that style (again). Of course there's doubt about it.

The situations were mentioned on a few interviews over the years. And yes, I believe there's also a word about it in the A Head Full Of Dreams film. (It's just crazy, 'Speed Of Sound' is one of my most favorite tracks of the band but sadly they never really enjoyed it performing live!)

Reportedly they worked and reworked on X&Y just too much. They weren't happy with the results and the album's material was constantly changing. It was mentioned that X&Y easily could've been their 'fifth' album. So that means there were a big bunch of songs in the works, rewritten and new tracks were added. The tracklist was changed countless times. It's funny, 'Talk' was originally considered being a b-side of a single (if I remember right) but was (re-)added to the album at last minute... Also, the band members had a sort of depressive time in general at that period. There might've been tensions even. Nonetheless, it's my favorite Coldplay album (besides the earlier two). Wish we could get some studio outtakes from these sessions...

I personally would like to see a new Coldplay album which goes waaayyyy back to the band's roots (Blue Room EP, Parachutes). But unlikely that's gonna happen. Think a deluxe box set treatment for their older albums is more possible.^^
