Coldplay have named the 10 tracks which will appear on their new studio album, Viva La Vida. In a handwritten note on the band's official website, it is revealed the album will be launched in the UK on 16 June. It adds that Coldplay hope to release a couple of singles before then. The tracklisting includes names like Life In Technicolor, Cemeteries Of London, Strawberry Swing and Death And All His Friends. The note is apparently addressed from Taormina, a small town on the east coast of Sicily and is signed off by 'Prospekt'. Viva La Vida is believed to be heavily influenced by Coldplay's recent tour of South America during a break from recording. The trip included shows in Chile, Argentina, Brazil and Mexico. Chris Martin revealed the album takes its name from a painting by Frida Kahlo, the acclaimed 20th century Mexican artist. Coldplay have, so far, announced just one gig for 2008 at the Pemberton Festival in Canada on 27 July. The full tracklisting for Coldplay's fourth studio album, Viva La Vida. 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 |

Colplay always keeps it short and sweet. I think that's why their albums always are strong. |

not really. it's a just another case of recording acts trying new marketing plots to promote their music. 7 inch vinyls look really cool, i should keep an eye for that nme issue. |

New Coldplay Single To Get World Premiere On 29th April It has been announced this week that Coldplay will premiere the first single from their fourth album, ‘Viva La Vida’, next Tuesday (29th April) on BBC6 Music, which will then open the floodgates for thousands of other radio stations to be allowed to air the track. ‘Violet Hill’, which is released in June, will be given its first play on George Lamb's show on BBC 6 Music, which airs between 10am and 1pm (BST). Coldplay’s much anticipated new album features ten tracks and has been produced alongside Brian Eno. Speaking about the album, the band said that they “weren’t afraid to try anything” and that, as a group, they were still “obsessed with making songs that can be sung to the rafters”. Meanwhile, XFM announced that big Coldplay news will be announced on Monday 28th April. In their blog, they said, "Keep your eyes and ears locked on to Xfm Online and on air for the most exciting Coldplay news you'll hear all year on Monday… We can say no more. Yet." |

XFM: "Most Exciting Coldplay News You'll Hear All Year - On Monday..." XFM will be giving Coldplay’s brand new single its first play next Tuesday (April 29) after 12 noon, plus get the full history of the track and album so far. ‘Violet Hill’ is the first single to be taken from the ‘Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends’ album, which is released on June 16. And if you listen to Xu on Tuesday (April 29) after midday you'll hear Gareth give ‘Violet Hill’ its very first spin. Plus, keep your eyes and ears locked on to XFM Online and on air for the most exciting Coldplay news you'll hear all year on Monday… We can say no more. Yet. It was revealed by Italian media that the band recorded the video for ‘Violet Hill’ in Sicily, Italy, earlier this month. Rolling Stone Online claims ‘Violet Hill’ was at first considered to be a promotion-only single, however it will still feature on ‘Viva La Vida’. The website also had a first taste of the new single: "Opening with a jagged distorted guitar riff, the song announces a new template: The stalking, bluesy beat beat fits nicely with Martin’s earthy vocals and plaintive lyrics – ‘If you love me, won’t you let me know?’” |

The track will be released on the week that is Madonna's only real shot at hitting #1. Last time around, Coldyplay's Speed of Sound broke the record for debuting in the top 10 during the iTunes era. |

The only reason some people think it's lame is because it sounds a little like an old Ricky Martin hit. I think that says more about them than it does about Coldplay. Most of us really don't go around thinking about Ricky Martin whenever they hear the words "viva" or "vida". Anyway, the full title of the album is "Viva La Vida, Or Death And All His Friends". |

Exactly. The whole "Ricky Martin" reason for hating the title is so very, very silly. |
