Alas, the "Tower" added to the skyline explained?

Jason-DeBord · 14-07-2012, 03:14 AM

I have been going to Comic Con since 1987 or so... so I am here now.

I have a press pass, so they allowed me to videotape as much of the panel discussion as I wanted to, and I taped over 30 minutes of it. I am uploading in segments now.

One part I didn't videotape was most of the Q&A (which I regret, as it was intriguing). It was pretty interesting hearing how much the album and concept was developed alongside the album... as an example, Mark Osborne said that he had come up with the name of "Mylo" and texted Chris, and Chris texted back "Xyloto", and there was the album title, just like that. Also, as another example, Major Minus had a different first name earlier (I think he said Phil came up with it), and they changed it to Major. So it was pretty fascinating hearing how much the comic had an impact on things in the latest album, even names of songs. He also said that there is a lot of material (songs) that did not make the album.

Anyway, I am only in the hotel to upload anything for a short time (meeting friends for dinner in a bit), but if you keep an eye on my YouTube account, the segments will be popping up (unedited).

The first segment will be at this URL once it's finished uploading:

Oh, how I wish they'd release new songs alongside each comic.

We can only hope! This would be a great way to release songs, don't you think? Maybe songs like Tomorrow, Aiko, Wilderness, Car Kids, etc. could be released as part of the comic "soundtrack" (even tho it's not a movie).

Or they could do a Rattle and Hum type of thing, with live songs and new songs combined.

I carry no doubt (one of these) will be the case. They probably wouldn't be announced, however, until closer to the official release of the series.

Sorry, my WiFi at hotel (even paid for faster ethernet) is pretty slow...

They probably won't be in order, so note the titles of the video - I recommend waiting for them to watch in the right order (there are five total) so it makes sense.

All I really left out was the first minute or two and some of the Q&A.

They said that they wanted to debut the music video for Hurts Like Heaven at the convention, but it is not done. It is going to be all animated (like a cartoon), and they did show character models based on the characters in the comic book (all of this is in the videos I shot - the last one).

The people who did the animation for the Gorillaz stuff (Passion Pictures) are working on this video...

That sounds pretty cool. And different to anything they've done, so some people might not like it.

Jason-DeBord · 14-07-2012, 04:10 AM

Here are some images from the Bongo Comics booth and then one from the panel discussion:

Honestly, there were some things said in the Q&A (that I didn't video tape) where I was sitting there thinking that the people who made a fuss over Rhianna singing in a song really wouldn't like some of what was said (i.e. how much the album and comic go hand in hand - just a very "un Parachutes" approach to music and such).

DundahMifflin · 14-07-2012, 04:14 AM

I really like the 'Silence' cover.

I hope it's a cover, at least.

Did gorillas take over the world? Has Car Kids been released yet? If so can you email me a copy from your brain (obviously where data is stored in the future). Well, good luck with those terminators!
