Coldplay have today announced the global release of their eighth album, Everyday Life, on Friday, November 22 via Parlophone / Atlantic on CD, vinyl, cassette and digital formats, with two US-only vinyl versions available via Third Man Records on standard black and limited edition gold. The 53-minute double album is divided into two halves, Sunrise And Sunset. Pre-order the black vinyl now HERE.
Two songs from the album, Orphans and Arabesque, make for a 7-inch vinyl single available now. Arabesque features vocals from Stromae and horns by Femi Kuti and his band.
The album's cover image is based around a 1919 photo of guitarist Jonny Buckland’s great-grandfather’s band. The artwork was teased last week in mysterious posters and billboards all around the world, from São Paulo to Tokyo.
