Coldplay - LeftRightLeftRightLeft

Genre: Rock: Alternative

A band like Coldplay need no introduction, but for those of you who have been living under a rock this past decade or so, I’ll make one anyway. Coldplay are a quartet from London, England that have release many popular hits such as Yellow, Clocks, The Scientist and more recently, Viva La Vida.

This time, Coldplay have decided to release a live album from their Viva La Vida tour. It consists of 9 tracks that all interlinked together with no gaps between them, creating an illusion that you yourself are actuall at the tour.

Most of the tracks are live versions of songs from Coldplay’s latest album Viva La Vida, with minor live alterations. Coldplay do play some of their other popular songs, such as Clocks and Fix You, and they include a song, Glass of Water, from their latest EP too.

This album is available for free from a link from Coldplay’s website at 192kbps. You’ll have to submit your e-mail and location, but that’s it. Get it while it lasts!
