I don't like it :/ too random that it looks bizarre! It actually looks like a cover of a children's book (because of all those kids & babies) not an album cover I am not jumping into conclusions & saying this might be the actual album cover, but I am just saying I don't like it.. + what's all with this repetitiveness? why each element is repeated 4 times? p.s. the kid carrying the baby reminds me of a young Chris photo carrying his youngest sister

the hype & teasing are done cleverly, the symbols & influences are exciting. The fan theories about the album cover meaning are so interesting. Imagine if after all this we get mediocre or awful music :shocked: Please let it not be a bad album Coldplay, please.

VERY NICE :surprised: I can actually foresee the new site design won't be much different than yours :thumbsup:

more from the UCLA neurosurgery event: X X btw, do you know of any particular reason he seems to be interested in neurology in general? I remember the Dementia campaign, certain tweet about a patient walking again..I thought it was a bit suspicious at the time, & now this :thinking:

There is the ever present sarcastic tone, but it sums up most of what we know about the album (confirms the Merry Clayton participation too)

:dead: yep :dead: :dead:

a London tube ad showed up with a date december 4. Speculated to be the date of the album release.. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-partner="tweetdeck"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">PHOTO: Potential <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/AHeadFullofDreams?src=hash">#AHeadFullofDreams</a> artwork/advert spotted on London Underground? - December 4th [via <a href="https://twitter.com/leethommo">@leethommo</a>] <a href="https://t.co/03CDSCHPa5">pic.twitter.com/03CDSCHPa5</a></p>— Atlas Project (@ColdplayAtlas) <a href="https://twitter.com/ColdplayAtlas/status/659874283234205696">October 29, 2015</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> the symbol is the flower of life which was also seen on Chris' shirt in GCF..

could December 4th be a date of a London concert somehow?? the 1st promo gig for the album? This subtle London tube ad is confusing me. I thought they will start promoting in the US (LA in particular) like they did with GS..Any Ads in the LA so far?

How did you know, may I ask? I had already mentally prepared myself for an early 2016 release. :bomb:.specially after Will's reply to a fan yesterday about how they are still working on the album. It also sounded plausible with the expected uplifting theme of the album that it wouldn't be released at a gloomy time of the year!! oh well...

Chris has attended a neurosurgery event (Visionary Ball) in Beverly Hills yesterday: X X X

chatting with Noel Gallagher at U2 London concert :awesome: X

FINALLLYYYYYYY!!! :dance: :dance: :dance: Congrats on 100000 members!! Thanks to Ian for creating this place & running it for so many years. Thanks to Sparky for saving it from closure & working hard to keep it interesting & friendly. Thanks to all the technical administrators that kept it working. Thanks to all the present & past members that filled this place with so many pages of lovely posts & great memories. Thanks to all the present & past moderators for running the forum & keeping everything organized. (special thanks to our former mod Tash for her enormous effort back in the days :nice:) Thanks to all the artists that provided the logos/ created the layouts through the years. Welcome Iiris..I hope you will have a great time in this lovely forum :daisy: & here is to another 100000 :vuvuzela: I love this place & I love you all :wacky:..I am getting all emotional :bigcry: :bigcry:

this single article you are referring to is more legitimate than all the other rumours that have been circulating without a single proof. Her manager issued an official statement that was in no way addressing Coldplay fans. She has been asked to share her vocals on the new album. How will it fit & sound remains a question, but her contribution isn't.

this seems pretty recent, isn't it? :thinking:

Nice find :surprised: thank you for it.. her story is sad but inspiring at the same time.:cry: I wonder how will her voice fit in the album :thinking:

btw, the film Jonny tweeted about looks very interesting..I wonder if he was giving us a hint (the famous Pink Floyd album cover makes an appearance) Anything is possible :sneaky: <iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/132562812" width="500" height="375" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen></iframe> <p><a href="https://vimeo.com/132562812">TAKEN BY STORM: THE ART OF STORM THORGERSON AND HIPGNOSIS official trailer</a> from <a href="https://vimeo.com/roddybogawa">Roddy Bogawa</a> on <a href="https://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p> & no of course I didn't spend the past hour looking at various photos from the screening trying to spot a certain guitarist attending :shame:

sounds interesting :surprised: I was thinking you were referring more exotic actually :curtain: :charming:

with a fan at the bakery today :nice: X that blue bag looks suspicious :lol:

X X X

this phrase got me so intrigued :wideeyed: :wideeyed: what are you planning Batty?? I actually prefer the viva curls. his hair now looks the one had during MX which I always disliked & called it the TinTin hair cut :P either let it full on or cut it really short as he did during GS era. these are my personal preferences anyway which I am sure will not be realized & we will be stuck with the TinTin haircut for the whole upcoming era :daisy: this is from today: X

o.k. I am not excited anymore, just curious what is the painting in the other room behind Chris? new or old? & also is this carpet/rug Indian? Does it have a significance? we have seen in a lot of photos since the GOT sketch. I thought there were only hiding something behind..maybe they are not :thinking:

I just assumed they wrote a new list on it. it was too blurry to decipher anything on it :sad: sorry for the over-excitement over nothing :shame:
