Year of the Black Rainbow - Countdown Wall

[mackie]

Looks like we have a wall of countdown timers to look forward to.

Let the guessing games begin.

Personally I want to know wtf happens 269 days from now. You have to be kidding me lol

[PileofDeadNinjas]

yea, i was just looking at this in awe...then there was a thread for it...who's gonna be the first to figure out all the dates for each square?

[wtfitsdaveyj]

i want to know now...:(

[pwnt_1337]

I was just about to post something about this. There are so many countdowns! I think the second one from the left in the top row is for another song preview.

[ChubbyFunster]

i have a theory, what each box was a part of a picture and when the times comes reveals sometihng AWESOME!

[lttheninja]

They've been pumping out the awesome, lately. ;)

It reminds me of an advent calendar, but with Coheed.

[Traeyu]

this is fricken awesome, Im with Zoolamander on this one, seems like there would be something cool that would happen after each time runs out. But we cant be 100% certain...

Well if I'm watching a countdown for 269 days something cool had better happen, that or I'd better explode or something.

[FaintofHearts80]

Year of the Black Rainbow indeed. Glad to hear that the awesome doesnt end with the album. Neverender part 2? i can dream.

Its Coheed, everything they do can be guaranteed to be 100% awesome.

OK, I got these dates figured out according to the countdown timers. All of these dates are approximately midnight of these days (**I added all of the times according to my calculations**), the timers are slightly all off of each other by a few minutes to an hour time wise, so they're not exact, but close enough: **These are now the fixed dates after the timers were all changed**


Mon. Feb 15 12:00 Midnight
Sat. Feb 27 12:00 Midnight
Sun. March 20 11:00
Wed. April 14 11:00
Mon. April 19 11:11
Mon. May 24 11:02
Tues. June 1 11:00
Mon. June 14 11:00
Sat. June 26 11:00
Thurs. July 1 11:00
Sun. July 11 11:15
Wed. August 11 11:03
Sat. August 21 11:09
Sat. September 11 11:14
Mon. September 13 11:11
Sun. September 26 11:00
Fri. October 1 11:28
Mon. October 4 11:00
Fri. November 5 11:00
Fri. November 26 12:00 Midnight

Who knows if any of these will change again in the future (I'm thinking the April 14th one was supposed to be set for the 13th, or maybe they have a day after event planned), but here's the preliminary list, so let the speculation begin.

[CoheedKonPFI]

YAY an April 14th counter! Thats my birthday!

[Timinatron]

Lmao what about the one that's 290 days from now? Good god Coheed is crazy.

There's no 290 day counter, but there is 237 days from today. What the hell could they be planning for that far down the road?

[jman19]

If you look, there has also been more words added just above the countdown on the main page. I can't figure it out.

[Timinatron]

Top row, dead center.

[Grimes]

umm...The Broken is not the single...wow

If you're talking about the red text that says, "Watch, 'Her Words Destroyed My Planet'", it's a link to a music video of the same name. I have no idea why it's there, though.

Top row, dead center I'm seeing 18:22:12:38. Maybe it's some sort of glitch. It would explain why 3 of the timers have doubles. But every time I go to the page it's all exactly the same. IDK what's going on anymore, I need sleep.

No, on the album promotion page, before you enter the actual site.

[Timinatron]

Yeah whenI go to that page there's a 290 day counter in the top row...craziness. Sleep sounds like a good idea though, I need to process all this...too much epicness for one night lol

[Fuel For the Feeding End 2113]

I will be away from home on a bus for the whole summer... I'm going to miss some of this.

[mar05004]

I figured out the words on the front page!
its latin, "leges humanae nascuntur, vivunt, et moriuntur"
"laws of man are born, live and die"

[FaintofHearts80]

I see the words too. they say 'Leges honanae nascuntur, vivunt et moriuntur.' its Latin. leges means to bequeath. honanae means honorable, nascuntur means to spring forth, vivunt means to reside or be alive in, and moriuntur means to die.

[FaintofHearts80]

I guess my Latin is a little rusty

This is actually a very plausible guess considering the bottom row of timers are the ones furthest away.... the bottom being where titles and release dates usually are on movie posters, hmmm......

[xFinalcutx]

Could the countdown to next Tuesday be the radio single?

[novablast31]

Funny that it's been almost three years that i've been on this forum, AND THAT was my first post, lmao.... that's how you know the excitement is overwhelming! I LOVE THE BROKEN!

[mar05004]

I wonder what the random numbers on the side of the countdown page mean though.

[wtfitsdaveyj]

A movie would be cool, but it'd have to be a musical. lol.


im kidding. but that'd be sweet. my hope is it is assorted pictures, like the last one can be a movie poster link, the next one is album artwork, etc....but if it were to be a friggin movie, im going to absolutely destroy my town in splooge.
