Famous Old Painter

Don't care.

I've now decided it's about half and half quality wise, which works out perfectly given they're asking you to pick 10 anyway.

Someone sent me a link to Politik about an hour ago. It really depressed me, for those same reasons.

As far as marketing strategy goes it's a brilliant idea. But poorly executed imo. But this is world of music, and musically this album more than makes up for the trainwrecks that were Off With Their Heads and Yours Truly Angry Mob. Holy fuck.... after all these years I'm finally a Kaiser Chiefs fan again! It's like I've gone in a time machine or something.

My only account is my bands one, and I cbf starting another one just to upload this song. If anyone else wants to upload it onto YouTube, then be my guest.

I realized that the synth riffs from Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall and the Underworld classic Born Slippy.NUXX are similar, so I've done a mash-up of the two tracks. http://www.mediafire.com/?c5p0z7o7qpanqge Let me know what you think.

I gave it a 4 on first impressions. Not so good. Perhaps it'll grow, or at least make sense in the context of an album.

We don't need yet another thread on this.

I don't care if they got permission or not, it still sounds exactly the same. At least with Talk it was only a riff. This time it's pretty much the whole song. Why did they even bother writing new words?

OK, now I've heard the song. And... erm......... Christmas Lights was much, much better. :\

Oh lordy :rolleyes:

Just realized I'm not gonna be home for this. I might not be able to hear it until Saturday night now.

Hm.. :thinking: This thread has gone a little insane. 20 pages of bashing and criticism and the song hasn't even come out yet.

All I got from that video was do not fuckin' cross with Dave Grohl. :angry: Also, I don't know why but that little bit where Nate sighs and points to his hat at the fast food place - I just cracked up completely :laugh3:

That's true, both Violet Hill and Viva la Vida were released before the album. Surprised no-one else mentioned that.

WHOA! THE ALBUMS...... FOLLOW THE SINGLES!?!?!?! WHAT A COINCIDENCE!

ETIAW will be the album closer as well as the first single? :shocked2:

Yeah sure, accidentally. ;) Brick By Brick by Arctic Monkeys pwn's them both.

Ow my freakin' ears!

I think you guys should calm down just a tad. Wait until we hear the song, then disown the band.

Oh god lol :laugh3:

It always has been in the past. I agree 100%. Coldplay are at their best when they're darker and slightly heavier I feel.

The title would still be worse though. :thinking:

I always am :P
