I mean dates have been booked for 2027, that's confirmed. The MOTS tour will definately resume next year in some capacity. What that means for new music? Who knows.

I'd be amazed if we heard anything before 2027 That said, Coldplay are one of those rare bands that releases stuff in December so who knows.

Twice

Neon Forest is so beautiful I let it get me pregnant

I feel like if they're resuming the tour in 2027 and they're doing an 11 night residency, surely a new album should be released to coincide with this. Especially given it'll be 3 years since the last one, which is the standard length of time between Coldplay releases. Chris has suggested a few times that if the musical takes too long they'll release the self-titled album first. He also said the writing for the self-titled is finished (although who knows with him) and it seems weird that Solid Ground would be a space musical track, but who knows. I've said this before, but I recon putting out the musical soundtrack first and the film later would be the right move. It's not unprecedented. The Sorry to Bother You album came out 6 years before the movie, the American Idiot musical happened five years after the album came out, and the less said about the FutureNever film the better. But there's no reason why the band couldn't tour the songs next year and put out the film after the tour is done.

Maybe they're being extra cagey this time because EVERYTHING WAS FUCKING LEAKED last time

Moon Music is now 2 years old. It doesn't feel like that long ago but I've had two children since then. Has there been any recent developments with Lp11 at all?

Moon Music wasn't out until October, ditto MX. EL and AHFOD were even later than that. That's roughly the timeframe I'm expecting next year, late 2027.

It's been pretty quiet considering there's meant to be a new album next year

Nowhere near as bad as I was led to believe

I'm glad there wasn't one tbh. I'm not sure they would've done it justice.

I'm just speculating. But it sounds like the film portion of the musical is nowhere near done, and I don't see what Solid Ground would be doing on the soundtrack. It makes far more sense as a self titled track.

That's more likely to be Alphabetica than LP11

So we're getting self-titled before MOTS3 after all?

I much prefer My Heart to flifil personally
