coldplay

Just days after hinting at a possible new album in the works, Coldplay told a sold-out Australian audience that they would be taking a three-year hiatus from touring.

Did you know Coldplay‘s multi-platinum ‘Mylo Xyloto’ album is based on the story of a character the band created a few years back with help from Academy Award-nominated writer and director Mark Osborne (‘Kung Fu Panda,”The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie’)? The character of Mylo informed the album and the striking visuals Coldplay have used on tour — and now he’s at the center of a six-part comic book

By leader Chris Martin’s estimation, there are about four different track listings being considered for Coldplay’s fifth studio album. But this much is certain: The album’s title is ‘Mylo Xyloto’ — pronounced MY-lo ZY-letoe — and the release date is Oct. 25.
