Moon Music, the band’s 10th album, marks the second half of their Music of the Spheres project. The synth-throb song “We Pray” and the electro-pop track “Feels Like I’m Falling in Love” are the first two singles from the forthcoming album. In opening track “Moon Music,” Martin attempts to trust in a world full of love per Rolling Stone’s review of the LP.
“It’s every bit as intergalactically ambitious as you’d expect, musically spacious and emotionally boundless,” the review reads. “But unlike other space-travel rock or pop or soul artists, Chris Martin isn’t lifting off into the Milky Way to escape our fallen world. He’s out there to find himself.”
Coldplay played an arsenal of hits during their record-breaking Glastonbury set in June. They launched their Music of the Spheres World Tour in March 2022, and extended the tour with international dates through September 2025.
Coldplay collaborated with documentary distributor Abramorama, Atlantic Records, and Parlophone Records for the premiere listening event. The theatrical experience takes place Oct. 2, and Oct. 3 in select countries. Tickets are available on Coldplay’s cinema website.
