Unlike AHFOD and MOTS, I can relate to the new album. For me, it’s an album that needs to be listened to from start to the end to understand the whole message, which is quite clear. Like Ghost Stories, I see it as a very cohesive album, except for "We Pray," which I like, but I felt it lost a bit of flow in the album. Jon Hopkins’ contribution was very well done, and I hope we get more from him on the next album. My two main complaints are that I feel the band doesn’t fully utilize the climax to let Jonny shine (Max Martin?) and adds unnecessary parts, like the "FLIFIL 2." MOON MUSiC (8.5/10): Melancholic like "Always In My Head," it was a very positive surprise. It sets a tone for the album like "let's find the answers together." The only point I didn’t like much was the transition to the next track. feelslikeimfallinginlove (6.5/10): Works much better in the context of the album. I still find it superficial, but it contributes well to the whole. WE PRAY (6.5/10): It’s one of the feats I liked most from the band. I find it powerful, both in the instrumental and in terms of lyrics. However, I felt it lost a bit of context in the album. JUPiTER (7/10): A positive surprise as well. It could easily fit on EL and brings a beautiful message, even though the lyrics seem superficial. I like the transitions, but like in other tracks, I think they could last longer. GOOD FEELiNGS (5,5/10): Very well constructed, with a strong bass line, but Jonny could appear more. There are moments in the album when I stop and think, "now is Jonny’s moment," but he doesn’t come as I would like. I try to relative the Chris's lyrics, but in that I couldn't. ALiEN HITS/ALiEN RADiO (10/10): I was expecting something special based on the reviews, but not this much. It’s a journey. I’m very happy that it serves as a spoiler for the next album. My only complaint is that I wish the explosion from 1:30 to 2:00 lasted longer. iAAM (9/10): One I was most looking forward to. It’s truly special, a mix of VLV with MX. I also wish it were longer. It feels a bit rushed, and Jonny could have had more space. AETERNA (7.5/10): I was almost sure I wouldn’t like it, as it’s not really my style, but it’s very well executed, with a strong bass presence and an amazing atmosphere. However, I think the second half didn’t quite fit. ALL MY LOVE (9/10): What a beautiful piano line. It reminds me of Beatles and Elton John. The climax of the song is very well crafted and builds up gradually. It will be part of my wedding song. ONE WORLD (9.5/10): There’s a melancholy around 4 minutes that is very special, and it’s one of the moments that moved me the most in the album (and why not the entire discography?). It’s the end of a cohesive album that truly is a journey for the band. I only didn’t give it a 10 because I think the recorded voices could have been better utilized. 7,9/10 In the end, I’m very happy with the new work. I think that this album will get more recognition when the discography is complete, and we'll understand more of it. I believe it plants seeds for the last two. Although I agree that sometimes the lyrics seem superficial, I think they carry much more feeling and connection than MOTS, and they blend well from start to finish. I think we can expect great things in the last two albums.

The music video of ALL MY LOVE will be out tomorrow!

Initially, I was thinking that Earthing could be the Angel's Song, but now I think that the song will be in the musical.

I don't know if anyone has listened in full yet, but there's an epic background song in the last episode of 'The Genius of Coldplay' that premiered today on BBC Radio: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001z72g Maybe it's a new song?

Yellow probably will be acoustic, right? 🙁

Hey! I'm from Brazil and there's a rumor from a reliable source that they will play in more three cities in Brazil: Sao Paulo, Belo Horizonte (my city!), and Curitiba. I think that will be announced only in April/May because of the sales of Rock in Rio that occur in April.

In terms of my taste in music, I think AROBTTH is their masterpiece, but in terms of production, concerts, creative and importance, VLV is the most complete in all of these aspects for me.

For me doesn't sound like an album that I listen to until the end, but only a few songs, like Humankind e Coloratura. When I first see the title Music of the Spheres I was hoping for something so much better and conceptual. It's strange to have My Universe and Coloratura on the same album, but I think that was what the guys wanted, and it's ok. But Coloratura, wow, the best song since I know them.

Brilliant Coloratura Humankind Great Human Heart People of the Pride Infinity Sign Let Somebody Go Good My Universe Eh Higher Power Biutyful MOTS Alien Choir What? MOTS II

I don't know if I'm getting crazy, but in some part of Infinity Sign remember me of The Race, don't remember which version...

Openers: Square One Politik Life In Technicolor Don't Panic Always In My Head Sunrise Mylo/Hurts Like Heaven Music Of The Spheres/Higher Power A Head Full Of Dreams Closers: Amsterdam Everything's Not Lost Coloratura Death And All His Friends O/Fly On Up & Up Everyday Life Up With The Birds Til Kingdom Come I love all the closers' songs, but I think that ones work better than others as a final song.

I'm just shocked, everything is perfect in this song.

For me, My Universe sounds more like a Chris collaboration with BTS. I can't see the other members.

Maybe a collaboration? I don't think that will be a new song today...

I don't know if this was already been post, but I was listening to Politik and the last symbol seems quite familiar...

I don't know, but I think that the final should be longer, it was really exciting.

Let's go!!

There is also a Portuguese signal, but it's mostly "just" a sequence of numbers: "Receiving transmission, number 3, 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116, 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, 122, 123, 124, 125, 1205, 1215, 1235, 127, 128, 129."

Guys, I'm soo happy that is really happening!!

Rock in Rio was officially postponed to September 2022. The president and creator of the event also said that by the end of this semester it should reveal more attractions (perhaps Coldplay?)

Hahahaha I'm looking forward to it!!

I don't know ... If this is true, I fear that due to possible postponements Coldplay will no longer participate. And Rock in Rio's refund policy is a little difficult.

I had forgotten, but the festival is scheduled to start on September 24th, but it will most likely be postponed.

As far as I know, no...

I'm from Brazil and Flesch is a very reliable and good source, especially about Rock in Rio, but I also doubt very much that the festival will occur this year. Although, it's a great sign!
