That watch is such a gimmick, nothing more innovative than what Sony and Samsung were doing already a few years before :D Plugging it to my classic 80gb ipod now then I will be getting a lot of complaining neighbours tonight haha :)

Its seriously one of the best PR coups ever, its hilarious and in a moment, as a U2 fan (second fav to Coldplay) I will listen to an album i've been waiting years and years for, best day ever :D

Edited the main post : It appears, according to people on Twitter, the album is automatically downloaded and added to your iTunes library, whether you like or not! :D Some of the reactions on Twitter are hilarious, thanks Grids :

Crazy. At the new iPhone6 press conference, U2 announced that they are giving away their album for free to iTunes customers which is basically everyone (over 500m people as Apple say) until October! Mass amount of people trying to download the album at the same time. Captain Crieff posted a link which is below. It appears, according to people on Twitter, the album is automatically downloaded and added to your iTunes library, whether you like or not! :D https://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewFeature?id=916841188 Its sent a shockwave across the music industry with one of the world's biggest bands releasing an anticipated album like this for free :o Discuss the new album here once you have listen to it!

Welcome :D We have had an invasion of Italian Coldplayers lately ;)

I got into MCR pretty late. I was never a fan of their early stuff but love Black Parade and really like Danger Days too! Gerard Way is the mastermind really, a bit like Noel Gallagher with Oasis, we can tell for sure anyway once this has been released :D

Former My Chemical Romance frontman. New album, Hesitant Alien is out 30th September. [video=youtube;FsDSIEq7O08] Thoughts? I love No Shows, the video is awesome too. Not too keen on Action Cat. Looking forward to his solo album anyhow :)

Thread for the New single and untitled new album on the way [video=youtube;sCbS-TLEoRA] I liked their last album, was very consistent imo and liking their new single now :)

Thanks Mayur, don't think anyone else has picked that up yet! :D

A thread for known forum glitches/issues. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7th September 14 : When logging into the forums, no toolbar / user profile appears straight away until the page is refreshed, giving the appearance of not being logged on. Notifications may take time to update for some users too and occasionally, a new post might not show up on PM's / a thread straight away. Refreshing the page is the current workaround for this.

The developer is only familiar with building Java / Android apps. It may be available on ios in the future.

Which radio station? Do you have a link?

Around an hour of downtime just now. Some maintenance and looking into a problem a few users are having with new posts showing and the notifications.

You have to see this :laugh2: [video=youtube;YoB8t0B4jx4]

Free to download on the Android Google Play store. Click the link below for more info. The app has just been updated by the developer to v2 with bug fixes and small improvements :) http://bit.ly/cphoroscope

The pics can be posted anywhere that's relevant :) Can use this misc Coldplay images thread for anything that doesn't fit in the Chris, Guy, Jonny or Will threads or the live show ones.

Its been 1 year already! :O Happy birthday to Atlas :D [video=youtube;Lh3TokLzzmw]

Both videos are great, I prefer this alternate version because it compliments the song very well. It has a certain charm about it and reminds me a bit of the Viva La Vida iTunes advert.

Awesome beyond words!
