In a recent radio interview, Coldplay revealed that they would be releasing a new EP before the end of the year, containing leftover songs from the sessions for Viva La Vida or Death And All His Friends. Now the band has announced the tracklisting for the EP, which will be out in multiple formats, as well as a collaboration with Jay-Z.Coldplay's Chris Martin appeared on Jay-Z's "Beach Chair" (which Kanye West later discussed on his song "Big Brother," after Martin also appeared on Ye's "Homecoming") and the J-Hova returns the favor on a new version of the new single "Lost!" The new mix of "Lost!" is due out "in a few weeks," according to a post from Martin on Coldplay.com.
As for Prospekt's March, it was originally announced as a five-song EP, but in a second posting on Coldplay.com, Martin says the tracklisting will now have eight tracks. Six are new songs, along with the alternate version of "Lost!" and a remix of the Viva La Vida tune "Lovers In Japan." The EP will be released on November 25.
Martin wrote, "We are very proud of these and are pretty excited to release them. They have been the subject of many discussions and arguments; some might be considered too catchy or too heavy for Coldplay songs but in our minds they complete the Viva La Vida picture."
He adds that the EP will be available as a digital download, or as a CD sold online, or in a special edition of Viva La Vida, called Viva La Vida: Prospekt's March Edition.
