Coldplay will release their highly-anticipated tenth album, Moon Music, on October 4th: “Moon Music. The new album, landing October 4. Limited signed editions available. Pre-order at store.coldplay.com (link in bio)”
Moon Music, which was produced by Max Martin, is available to pre-order everywhere now, with a limited number of hand-signed editions available from the official Coldplay Store. Moon Music is Coldplay’s first album since 2021’s Music Of The Spheres, which spawned the US No. 1 single with “BTS, My Universe,” and was nominated for ‘Album of the Year’ at the Grammy Awards.
The album will be the world’s first album released as a 140-gram EcoRecord LP, with each copy made from nine recycled PET-plastic bottles recovered from post-consumer waste. This will prevent the manufacture of more than 25 metric tonnes of virgin plastic, and provide an 85% reduction in manufacturing process CO2 emissions/kg compared to traditional 140-gram vinyl. Additionally, the band has collaborated with long-time partners The Ocean Cleanup to create an additional format: the Notebook Edition EcoRecord LP. The rPET for this edition comprises 70% river plastic, intercepted by The Ocean Cleanup from the Rio Las Vacas, Guatemala, and prevented from reaching the Gulf of Honduras and the Atlantic Ocean.
The CD editions will be the world’s first released on EcoCD, created from 90% recycled polycarbonate, sourced from post-consumer waste streams. This will provide at least a 78% CO2/kg emission reduction and avoids the manufacturing of more than five metric tonnes of virgin plastic. To reduce waste, the first edition run of Moon Music (both EcoRecord LP and EcoCD) will be strictly limited and produced at a higher specification than any future editions. All First Edition EcoRecord LP products will be individually numbered.
The album’s first single, “FeelsLikeImFallingInLove,” was just released, after the band performed it for first time during their sold-out stadium show at Budapest’s Puskás Aréna.
