Coldplay’s ‘Prospekts March EP’ Details Revealed
The album art above features yet another painting (looks familiar doesn’t it) by Eugene Dela Croix which was painted to represent the French Revolution. And just another tidbit of information; You may recall reading each of Coldplay’s exerpts leading up to their album name actually being dropped, however, many onlookers were anticipating this album to be named Prospekt, when in fact, it turns out this song will be the meat and potatoes of this follow-up EP. Keep in mind, the band went through a tough time trying to pick out which songs they wanted on their full length, so these are no lesser than was was on their album, rather songs that didn’t fit into the album flow they wanted.
From Coldplay:
We are very proud of these and excited to release them. They have each been the subject of many discussions and arguments. Some might be considered too catchy or too heavy for Coldplay songs but in our minds they complete the Viva La Vida picture.
