Coldplay’s new album is released on the 16th of June. Intrigued?
Just 'awake' will do. Viva la Vida has lost the or Death and All His Friends from its title in the last few weeks - which is a bit like handing a naked man a jacket - arrives through a sceptical Capitol and is the follow-up to 2005’s X&Y.
Here’s a tracklisting:
'Life in Technicolor'
'Cemeteries of London'
'Lost!'
'42'
'Lovers in Japan/Reign of Love'
'Yes'
'Viva La Vida'
'Violet Hill'
'Strawberry Swing'
'Death and All His Friends'
Apparently a couple of those could be snuck out before the album’s issued this summer, according to a post on the band’s website.

oh, coldplay...
Evertime, I look forward to the new releases from Martin & co, and everytime I feel a little short-changed. Not so much (but nevertheless) with Parachutes and A rush of blood..., but certainly with X&Y - catchy tunes, but throwaway lyrics. Something doesn't sit right, like maybe they've got more to them but they're just not showing us.
Fuck it - no doubt i'll still be buying this album just because i wait in measured expectation!
Proves my point again
a lot of people on this website are turning into their parents anyd none of them can see it
well...
one post in this instance doesn't really prove anything...
explain yourself young man!
apparently
if you do not like the Sex Pistols or if you like Coldplay yr opinion doesn't count here, because it makes you a middle class grammar school white hipster boy / young idiot.

is looking forward to this
^this
although I don't like Coldplay. I just hate the Sex Pistols SO MUCH!
How many Coldplay fans
even know who Frida Kahlo is?

Coldplay are my guilty pleasure. I know i shouldn't like them but...there's something about a few of their songs I find quite nice. And I hate myself for it. Its like watching a really bad tv show and getting quite into it.
And the lead singer is hot.
I thank you.
Coldplay defined bland with X&Y.
Scientifically, this record cannot be worse.
Eh?
I hate the way people think Coldplay could not be worse... take the idiot above. Don't get me wrong, I'm not the world's biggest Coldplay fan, but it's just fucking stupid some of the stuff people come out with. If Coldplay weren't as well known but you'd still heard all their stuff there isn't a chance in hell you'd feel this way about it. Worse are the people who judge people for just LIKING Coldplay! I think most hip-hop (with some exceptions) is complete shite but I don't think the people who listen to it are the world's biggest twats. Lastly: I don't go to a grammar school, but I'm a "middle class white boy" and proud of it! What the fuck is wrong with people's heritage and why the hell is it relevant in a discussion about music? Idiots.
