Coldplay Reveals Album Title, Release Date
Coldplay’s fourth album, “Viva la Vida,” will arrive June 17 in North America via Capitol and a day earlier internationally, according to the band’s spokesperson.
“Viva la Vida” was produced by the band with Brian Eno and Markus Dravs. Coldplay manager Dave Holmes previously told Billboard.com the album “definitely takes them in some different directions. I’m not a music critic, but it’s certainly a progression, with some really great songwriting.”
The band is finalizing the track list today (March 19), according to its Web site. “Viva la Vida” is the follow-up to 2005’s “X&Y,” which topped The Billboard 200.
So far, Coldplay’s lone confirmed live dates are at the first Pemberton Festival in British Columbia on July 27 and Japan’s Summer Sonic Festival on Aug. 9-10.
