Photo by Phil Harvey Coldplay took us by surprise last week with the left-field, ambient and auto-tuned single, “Midnight”. Now, Chris Martin and Co. return with details of their upcoming sixth studio album. Entitled Ghost Stories, the follow-up to 2011′s Mylo Xyloto will arrive May 19th through Parlophone Records. The track titled “Magic” serves as the album’s first proper single and is now available for purchase through iTunes. It’s also streaming below. On first listen, it sounds a lot less Bon Iver and a lot more Chris Martin drinking a venti, no-whip Skinny Vanilla Latte on a Sunday afternoon. Ghost Stories Tracklist: 01. Always In My Head 02.

Coldplay Announce New Album ‘Ghost Stories’, Download the Smooth New Song ‘Magic’ By Jeremy D. Larson Coldplay have just officially announced their new album entitled Ghost Stories, due out May 19 via Parlophone. This is the band’s sixth album, which follows 2011′s record-turned comic book, Mylo Xyloto. Also out of the ether, the band let loose the first single from the album, a song called “Magic”. You can download the sweetly new song, the one little bit of R&B swing to it called “Magic” on iTunes right now. Related: 5 Directions Coldplay Could Go On Their Next Album Below are the artwork and the tracklisting for the album, which includes their previously released song, the Bon Iver-sounding “Midnight”. For the new track, it’s decidedly more in Coldplay’s wheelhouse, even using a tinny Roland drum machine for parts of it to jive with where pop rock is right now. It’s more like the Chris Martin we know, the one who will buy some Banksy heart-balloon art. He didn’t use it as the album art, but it’s close. Coldplay will perform at the iTunes Festival at SXSW in Austin, TX on March 11. (Courtesy Parlophone Records) Coldplay – Ghost Stories tracklist: 01. Always In My Head 02. Magic 03. Ink 04.

Coldplay Announces Release Date for ‘Ghost Stories,’ Drops New Single ‘Magic’: Listen Coldplay has quietly unveiled “Magic,” the first single from their anticipated new album “Ghost Stories.” The album, the British band’s sixth, will arrive May 19 via Parlophone/Atlantic Records. Fans who pre-order “Ghost Stories” will receive an instant download of the new single, which can be streamed at youtube.com/coldplay. News of Coldplay’s new album release comes a week after the outfit dropped the atmospheric track “Midnight" -- and its trippy clip. “Magic,” like “Midnight,” is a more introspective production which veers well away from the radio-geared, stadium-rock works which helped make Coldplay a household name. “Ghost Stories” is the Chris Martin-fronted group’s first album since 2011's "Mylo Xyloto." In August of last year, the band released "Atlas" from the soundtrack of "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire." A deluxe edition of the “Ghost Stories” CD, featuring three bonus tracks, is available exclusively from Target at target.com/coldplay. Coldplay will support the album with a headline slot on the opening night of the inaugural US iTunes Festival at SXSW on March 11. The performance will be streamed live and on-demand worldwide for free via the iTunes Store. Track-Listing for "Ghost Stories" : 1. Always In My Head 2. Magic 3. Ink 4. True Love 5. Midnight 6.

Coldplay announce new album Ghost Stories and single Magic [LISTEN] AFTER a few years away, Coldplay have shocked everyone with the news of their new album and single. The world-conquering band released the song Midnight out of the blue last week but have now released Magic, the first single from their new album Ghost Stories. In a far cry from their guitar-thumping stadium hits, Magic is more downbeat and electronic, and is sure to divide opinion from their fanbase. Midnight gave clues as to the direction they were headed when it dropped last week, with the song featuring vocider effects and a synthy backing. Ghost Stories may also draw some critics before its release as it contains just nine songs. The Chris Martin-fronted group released their last album, Mylo Xyloto, in 2011 and featured a more 'poppy' sound. It seems as though the band are heading further down the route of less guitar-dominated songs but whether that will translate into sales remains to be seen. Ghost Stories is released on May 19. Tracklisting: 1. Always In My Head 2. Magic 3. Ink 4. True Love 5. Midnight 6. Another's Arms 7. Oceans 8. A Sky Full Of Stars 9. O link

Coldplay Sets New Album's Release Date, Drops New Single Fans who pre-order the band's sixth studio album 'Ghost Stories', which is coming out on May 19, will be able to download first single 'Magic' Just a week after dropping new track "Midnight" and its accompanying music video, Coldplay announces that their new album is coming out soon. The new record will be called "Ghost Stories" and is set to arrive on May 19 via Parlophone/Atlantic Records. The album will feature nine tracks including "Midnight" and "Magic". The latter song will likely serve as the first proper single off "Ghost Stories". It is available for free download for fans who pre-order the forthcoming album. Unlike Bon Iver-esque "Midnight", "Magic" sounds more like Coldplay's previous works although there's an electronic beat and an R&B-influenced melody. The British band has reportedly worked with magician Joe Labero, actor Peter Fonda and Swedish director Jonas Akerlund for the music video of this new song. "Ghost Stories" marks Coldplay's sixth studio effort. It comes as the follow-up to their 2011 Grammy award-nominated album "Mylo Xyloto". Chris Martin and his bandmates will support their new album with a headline slot at this year's iTunes Festival in Austin, Texas, on March 11. "Ghost Stories" Tracklist: "Always In My Head" "Magic" "Ink" "True Love" "Midnight" "Another's Arms" "Oceans" "A Sky Full of Stars" "O" link

Coldplay caught everyone by surprise when they announced very early on Monday, March 3rd; the title and release date of their upcoming sixth album, provided an iTunes pre-order link, and debuted the official first single. Listen to "Magic" on YouTube below! this track. Now this is what I'm talking about! Let's finally forget of that cool but extremely weird buzz single "Midnight" that Coldplay premiered (with accompanying weird visual as well) last week - "Midnight" is on the final tracklisting, though... - and let's focus on the uber-amazing "Magic". When Chris Martin sings "Magic", just change the word for "Love". Such a tranquil production, and tranquil vocals by Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin, although he adds more energy when the hook comes. I'm just in love with "Magic". Although it's over 4 minutes long in length, the track is quite short lyrics wise, so we have to make sure to soak up every second of Coldplay's music. The British rock band's new album is called "Ghost Stories" and it's our May 19th! Hit or Miss? link
