Mylo Xyloto - Coldplay return with studio album No 5

Anticipation is building for one of the most eagerly awaited albums of the year.
Coldplays "Mylo Xyloto" is the bands 5th studio album and gets it worldwide release on Monday October 24.
Brian Eno once again collaborated with the band and it has even been alluded by Chris Martin that it may even be the last Coldplay album ever!

So what to expect ? From the tracks that we've been able to hear prior to its release, the album certainly is aimed at pleasing the traditional Coldplay fan with few creative risks being taken.
Stadium friendly sing-a-long choruses abound with obvious examples being the two singles "Every Teardrop is a Waterfall" and "Paradise".

The hype machine will kick into overload with the album release next week and an exclusive show being directed by Anton Corbijn at Madrid´s Las Ventas bullring (on the 26th) and set to be simulcast live on you Tube /Vevo. 


Here's the recently completed video for "Paradise" which features the band dressed in elephant costumes!
