    So apparently we have the name and cover art for the Album, which seems to be "Gigaton".   

    Or this is possibly the next/first single off the album, but this feels more like an album name.
    No, its the damn software company behind the lenses for facebook/instagram!
    So they put that name on a billboard in random cities? 
    Yes, This is now what Shoe and apparel companies do. Nike does something similar. To use the software you must have gigaton somewhere on the poster
    No way. 

    You need to look up what Gigaton means. 

    Spark AR Studio also uses this name with regards to the billboards they throw up for Nike shoe releases.

    Gigaton refers to the measurement of the ice being lost from the Antarctic. The poster is in line with that.

    Did anyone receive a handwritten letter from band lately? Read this on Third Man about Coldplay's album:
    "The album's cover image ... was teased last week in mysterious posters and billboards all around the world, from São Paulo to Tokyo....The first details of Everyday Life were revealed earlier this week when the band mailed typed, hand-signed notes to 500 Coldplay fans around the world."
    Why would they copy Coldplay?
    Parachutes.  Speed of Sound.  Lead singer performing with Beyonce.  They've copied Coldplay a few times.

    If you go to those locations and wait maybe 4-6 months, the cd will be at a nearby Target.  Purchase said CD and you're all set!

    So, it looks like some areas have a double image where one is slightly zoomed out. Double album hint or just the back of the CD case?
    It's a hopeless situation...
