ICYMI: Coldplay Drops Tenth Studio Album ‘Moon Music’

As a dedicated Coldplay fan who has been following their journey since I discovered them with “Parachutes” back in 2000, I must say that “Moon Music” is another masterpiece that takes my breath away. The band’s ability to consistently create music that resonates with millions of people worldwide is truly remarkable.

Coldplay has dropped its tenth studio album titled, Moon Music earlier this weekend.

Following their earlier announcement, fans eagerly await the release of Coldplay’s final studio album, which they expect to drop in 2025. In an interview with BBC Radio 2’s Jo Whiley in 2021, Chris Martin revealed that after this album, the band plans to focus primarily on touring. He also mentioned potential collaborative projects, but he emphasized that the Coldplay discography would be complete by then. In a recent conversation with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe, Martin highlighted the significance of releasing 12 albums, stating that it’s reminiscent of their musical heroes, such as The Beatles and Bob Marley, who also released around 12 albums. He added that this limit ensures high-quality control, making it challenging for a song to make it onto the album, which he finds beneficial because it encourages them to continue improving rather than coasting.

Ever since its debut, this album has garnered numerous favorable criticisms, with Rolling Stone describing it as “cosmically ambitious” and musically expansive and emotionally vast. Similarly, Eve praised it for its spaciousness, while NME bestowed a four-star review on it, labeling it as the embodiment of music’s ability to endure life’s trials. Give the new album a spin below.
