Coldplay will be releasing their first film/live album in nine years on November 20. The album, “Live 2012,” documents the band’s world tour, “Mylo Xyologo.” Directed by Paul Dugdale, the album includes footage from Coldplay’s shows at Montreal’s Bell Centre, the U.K.’s Glastonbury Festival and Paris’ Stade de France.
“The Mylo Xyloto tour has been the most fun we’ve ever had as a band,” exclaimed Coldplay frontman, Chris Martin. “It’s felt very uplifting right from the start; partly because we are proud of the music, the LED wristbands, the pyrotechnics, the lasers and all of that stuff, but mainly because of the amazing audiences that we’ve been playing for. Over the years, our crowd has become more and more a part of the concert itself. They’re loud, diverse, full of soul, and make the songs sound much better than we can on our own. We wanted to try to bottle the incredible feeling that they give us, and hence our concert film.”
“Live 2012″ will be released by EMI on CD/DVD, Blu-ray/CD, DVD/CD and digitally. It is available to preorder now. The album will have 15 tracks including hits like “Viva La Vida,” “Fix You,” and “Us Against The World.” The DVD version will include three extra tracks.
