This kind of track-connection is like Pink Floyd's hit album " Dark Side of The Moon", how some of those tracks connect.Īnyways, this is a great 0:46 second track, of a symphony of the xylophone, piano, and a bunch of other instruments, then immediately connects into the next track, And the band does this cool effect in multiple tracks. You see, at the end of the song, it connects into the next song, " Hurts like Heaven". So, the first track is titled " Mylo Xyloto", but to me, this really isn't a track. The album has 14 tracks, but to me, their is really less than 14. Then Mylo became the beginning of it and the name was born. Then, the title was given by a graffiti tag "Xylophone", which they shortened to "Xyloto". The album was inspired by graffiti artwork in the 70s subway cars, and so they absorbed their album artwork and theme from that idea.

Now, let's learn about the album, Mylo Xyloto. Then Will Champion joined as their drummer and they changed their name to Coldplay. Then, their bassist Guy Berryman joined, and changed their name to " Starfish". Today's album review is none other than the latest Coldplay album, " Mylo Xyloto".īefore I begin, let's have some background on the band.Ĭoldplay was formed in 1996 by its lead singer, Chris Martin, and lead guitarist, Jonny Buckland at the University College London, and named their band " Pectoralz".
