Coldplay New Album: Track 'Up in Flames' to Leave Fans in 'Tears?'
Coldplay has a new album coming out and fans are already raving about the glimpses of sounds they are picking up from the new album.
Coldplay played an iTunes Festival show this past July and one of the tracks played at the show is making waves as it is being said to "leave audiences in floods of tears.”
The song, entitled, “Up in Flames,” was played at the iTunes Festival only a day after Martin started to write it. One person wrote on the band’s Roadie42 blog of the song, “It was hypnotic in its simplicity, but devastatingly, achingly gorgeous. The final version has lost none of this and is a masterwork of restraint. It hasn’t been crammed with a million ideas and embellishments.”

The blogger added, “I can predict floods of tears in every quarter.”
The band is set to release their 5th studio album entitled “Mylo Xyloto” on October 24th and the next single, ”Paradise,” will be released on September 12th.
The band will also start touring to promote the new album. They will be headlining the Austin City Limits festival and will ahead to other festivals and shows in Las Vegas, Atlanta, Brazil, and South Africa.
Lead singer Chris Martin told Billboard of the new album, “I always feel like each record is our last, but at the moment I’m in stage where I really mean it. I just can’t imagine how we would do another one, because we’ve thrown everything. When it’s finished, we won’t have been able to put more work into it, which I guess is the only thing we can really do.”
The popular English rock band formed in 1996 at University College of London (UCL). They have won seven Grammy Awards and have been active supporters of several charities and social causes including performing to raise funds for Haiti earthquake victims and teenage cancer victims.
