"...Coldplay's new single, 'Violet Hill', will be available as a free download exclusively from Coldplay.com for one week starting tomorrow, Tuesday April 29th, at 12.15pm UK time."
On a somewhat relevant note, I'm not really sure what to think of this new album artwork and am definitely interested in what Coldplay has to offer this fourth time around. It seems like just yesterday I was standing on Empire Polo Field watching Chris Martin introduce new tracks off of X&Y as being "orgasmic", and having the band perform them live to an undoubtedly exhausted but completely amped Coachella crowd
Edit: I just listened to it. I know I've only listened to it once, but I'm not too impressed. Maybe it'll take me a little while to acquire a taste for it, or maybe I was selfish and expecting something as epic and beautiful as square one or white shadows, but so far the only parts of the song that aren't obnoxious are the first first minute (before the heavy guitar distortion kicks in) and the last minute (when it's just Chris Martin and the piano). Ugh, huevos.
