tvham Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 I ordered from Bullmoose so hopefully it's the same version. This is now listed as Pink/Blue vinyl on Bullmoose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spirit Level Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I liked Ghost Stories way more than Mylo. IMO they're better at the not overly happy songs. The first single was a bit meh for me aju2streets and Jamie Rarity 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markok Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Is it just me or does this new single sound like it could be a Minus The Bear song? Have heard the song only once, but it was a straight up old disco song (Bee Gees, ABBA etc), I doubt Minus The Bear (whoever that is) was even born then.

Vince Ives Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I hear the MTB in it, that lead guitar is very Dave Knudson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Have heard the song only once, but it was a straight up old disco song (Bee Gees, ABBA etc), I doubt Minus The Bear (whoever that is) was even born then. Weird take. You've never heard of Minus the Bear, but you totally dismiss that this track can sound like them? I don't get what being born during disco has to do with anything.

kjkenney Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 I get the disco vibe as well. The strum pattern is very akin to some Nile Rodgers type playing. I don't really get the MtB reference other than the noodly guitar line at the chorus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pushbacktosquare Posted November 15, 2015 Author Share Posted November 15, 2015 So I was at their show at the Belasco Theater in Los Angeles last night. About an hour before their set, they announced that they wouldn't be broadcasting the set that they originally intended to play. As most of their newer songs are very upbeat and joyful, I imagine they couldn't stomach to play that set with the events that had occurred in Paris. So in turn of events, they still played a set for the fans that were at the venue which consisted of a short set of songs that seemed appropriate with the mood in the room. Here's the set: Imagine (John Lennon cover) Sparks Yellow Til Kingdom Come Us Against The World Fix You O/Fly On I'll be attending the make up date this Saturday as well. If anyone is going to be there, let's meet up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyhi Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 This leaked. Upon first listen I'm not liking it very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouTwo Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 That's not what I waned to hear. The single took a couple listens to grow on me. Maybe the album will be the same way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vega Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I have been listening to this since friday now and it definitely grew on me a little bit. But it is still a very spotty record. There are some good tunes on there but there's also some reeeally cringeworthy stuff, don't know what they were thinking when they made some of these songsy I think it's with ghost stories their weakest so far.

gmoney Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Xylo and Ghost were both terrible. I expect pretty much the same with this album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouTwo Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I think i'm in the minority of people who liked Ghost Stories. I guess I'll see how this one is when I get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecayToDeath Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Ghost Stories is good when you remove both the "Coldplay" label and the song "A Sky Full of Stars". It's nothing like their other stuff, but it's what Chris was feeling at the time. Still my least favorite though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kjkenney Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Yikes that's disappointing to hear. I really liked the majority of Ghost Stories, had high hopes for this one :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markok Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I thought Coldplay was regarded good last time around 2005 or so, its all been downhill from there and Im sure many will agree. For me, personally I just dont understand how their latest albums just sound so bad production wise, the brickwalled mastering is just awful. The Nile Rodgers guitar disco sound is definitely here, but again - listen to the latest Daft Punk album and this - the production just dont compare. I do like the happy up-beat direction though.

kjkenney Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 They should have kept Brian Eno producing. Viva La Vida is their last really magnificent album imo. Just so unique in their discog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsgoodtobefree Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Yeah Viva La Vida is fantastic. There's been a few songs I've enjoyed since then, but it seems like the days of me fully liking a new Coldplay album are over. I also get the impression that this album was rushed. Ghost Stories just released last year, you'd think they'd want to wait a little while before releasing a new album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but they also did very little touring for Ghost Stories so it may have given them more time to make this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
