Yes.
I'm sure Craig wasn't thinking of this but Melodia is Italian for melody.
Great name though and 14 songs!

[Here]I just want to ask, on that blog... Is the image of a white version of VV's album cover going to be the album cover of the new one?
Or is it just there because the new cover isn't known as yet?

In the blog it says "'MELODIA' OUT JULY 12
'HE'S A ROCKER' from itunes June 3 w/two bonus tracks! "
Anyone know what the 2 bonus tracks are?? I don't have itunes installed so i can't check.

May 23 2008, 04:42 AM
Yaaaaaaay!!!
I'm so happy right now I can't sit still. The tracklist looks awesome. This is going to be awesome!
And Melodia sounds way better than Braindead as an album title me thinks

Haha I don't think he is inventing...for example in Spanish 'melodia' is melody..nice Craig is interested in languages..or maybe just certain words because he probably likes how they sound.

actually MELODI
JA (its just an extra J in) in slovene means melody.
maybe they ment this...maybe they didnt.

I'M SO EXCITED!!!

and yeah i also think melodia is a better title, i think its more in Vines style.

I actually think 'Braindead' would be a slightly better album title tham 'Melodia', although this is a nice word and I personally don't really care what the album's called as long as i can FREEEEEAAAAKKKKOOUUTTTTT to it.
Luaana
May 23 2008, 05:17 PM
Melodia means melody in portuguese. I liked. But Braindead would be a great title too.
God, I can't wait to hear it. My ears are screaming " I wanna hear new vine's sooongs. Please, give me what I want"..
thePotIntheGarden
May 23 2008, 06:02 PM
'Brain Dead' would have been simply English. 'Melodia' nods to a many languages, as we've pointed out

I reckon this likewise nods to fans as a whole, the internationality of the Vines' fan base, and says that they (the band) will now begin stopping for shows in India, Brazil, Sovenia, Sweden, Chile, etc., etc.

Yay

Mmm I like the sound of that. Now it have to become reality.
And since everyone else is saying it. If you remove the 'a' at the end of Melodia then you have melodi which is the Swedish word for melody.

Although, what about distribution of the album? Because their on a smaller label now and I want Vines in the UK. :/ Hmmm.

May 23 2008, 10:37 PM
it will definitly be released in the uk. maybe on july 14th but definitly it will be out there in july. and you can still order it online (i know its not so great but whatever) i dont know about germany as well. i guess i will have to order it online too.

Spanish or Italian? But i thought maybe since the Vines recorded the album out here in L.A....that maybe they were influenced by the huge Latino population out here who speak Spanish.
So i was thinking maaaybe they wrere influenced by that.

But then again maybe not. Idk..

Well then that must mean its meant to be.

Well I hope this album is MELODIC at least, Vision Valley should have been called Melodia. Melodia to me means like, Melodic songs, you know, ones that go over 3 minutes and build and come down etc. Songs from bands like Muse, not the Vines. I thought they were progressing with songs like Spaceship and Vision Valley, those are Melodic. From what Ive heard of the new songs the album doesn't fit the title, and putting Kara Jayne on an album is like getting a tattoo of your boyfriend/girlfriends name on your body, cept this one Craig, you can't remove. Should have made it a b-side.
