because they're IDIOTS! as simple as that!

very good review / but nothing really new! i'm wondering myself....how come there are lots & lots of journalists will the album on their hands, and us, TRUE COLDPLAY FANS, have to wait until June 12?? I wish Coldplay would give their material to us /

it's always been like that - you're right, it's a shame, but the fact is that Chris is the frontman and the other members don't really care! However, I think is very important Guy, Will and Jonny start getting more attention!!! Pay attention to what Chris said in the Q Magazine Interview: "I live in fear of someone leaving"

New Coldplay album leaked to net Coldplay's album is out on 6 June in the UK and 7 June in the US Coldplay's hotly-anticipated new album has been illegally put on the internet a week before its UK and US release. The profits of record company EMI had fallen after the release of X&Y was delayed. The leak took place on Monday, the day copies were sent to UK radio stations and the day before it went on sale in Japan, its first country of release. An EMI spokeswoman said tight security had successfully kept the album under wraps until then. She said: "EMI's anti-piracy efforts have been extremely effective in the pre-release protection of Coldplay's X&Y." The music industry has battled internet "pirates" in recent years, arguing that fans are less likely to buy the CD if they have already downloaded the album for free. Coldplay's importance to EMI was highlighted when profits fell 13% after X&Y and an album by Gorillaz were delayed. Locked-up iPods Security measures included hosting album playbacks at venues such as Abbey Road Studios for journalists and industry figures instead of sending them copies. A listening room in EMI's headquarters was equipped with iPods in locked cabinets and CDs that were sent out were labelled with a false name - The Fir Trees - to throw would-be pirates off the scent. Coldplay themselves have not shown the highest regard for EMI's commercial fortunes. "Shareholders are the great evil of this modern world," singer Chris Martin said recently. "I don't really care about EMI. I'm not really concerned about that." http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/4600159.stm Will history repeat itself today?

thank you very much!!! cheers

you're welcome guys!!! and yes - the spiders are massive! luckily, I live in the city, so spiders are very far away! cheers!!!

found the scans! PM me with your email and you'll get them, since the coldplaying inbox does not allow me to send attachments!

I CAN'T ACTUALLY BELIEVE THAT THE SCANS WERE TAKEN DOWN!!! Q MAGAZINE PEOPLE: IF YOU WANT THAT I BUY YOUR MAGAZINE, WHY THE HELL DOESN'T IT COMES OUT FOR SALE ON MY COUNTRY??? YOU SHOULD ALLOW ME TO SEE YOUR ARTICLE DUE TO YOUR CHEAP AND LOUSY DISTRIBUTION POLICY!!! what a downer!!! Can someone that saved the scans - can actually private message them to me!!! PLEASE!

WTF? Incredible news - so they might do something like The Killers did with Sawdust!!! An album of only b-sides (or songs that didn't make VLV!!) cheers

Thank you very much for the article - awesome thing to scratch another day from the calendar without feeling so miserable because the album hasn't leak yet!!! I'll come back with my opinions after I read it!! Anyways, THANK YOU!!!

Coldplay :wink3:

Will :wink3:

If after June 4 we don't have the album - don't expect a leak!!! That´s for sure!

it's a good point!!! but if you live in South America (like me) you just cannot afford to wait until the album arrives here!!! we still don't have a release date here!!! So - the leak comes in handy - until you can buy the actual CD!!!

awesome song anyway!!!

contest

I think we have a Coldplaying meetup!!! :lol: Don't we Chavi?

Hey! I'm only downloading a fine quality leak! If not, I'll wait until June 11!

we really need to take a break (as a group) and stop believing what anybody posts in this forum!!!

42 hours until Viva La Vida leaks!!!

I think they're keeping Politik and wasting Square One - So the Viva La Vida Tour Setlist will start like this: 1.- Life In Technicolour 2.- Politik

EXTASY!!!

from 1 to 10? you would rate 8 or more?

too many people with lots & lots of free time!
