Welcome back, let's continue the story of Coldplay's career starting from one of their most successful albums.

With "Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends" (2008), Coldplay embraces new sounds and creative challenges. The album's title reflects inspiration taken from Frida Kahlo's painting of the same name, emphasizing the band's desire to explore broader and more complex themes. The famous single, along with tracks like "Violet Hill" and "Strawberry Swing," demonstrates remarkable artistic maturity, achieved in part through the illustrious collaboration with Brian Eno as producer. The same collaboration, among others, is replicated in the subsequent "Mylo Xyloto" (2011). In this album, Coldplay experiments with electronic elements and futuristic themes. The album tells a science fiction love story through songs like "Paradise" and "Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall," while maintaining their distinctive emotional imprint. "Ghost Stories," released in 2014, marks a return to the band's more intimate roots. Characterized by a more sober and melancholic sound, the album reflects a transitional period in the personal lives of the band members. Tracks like "Magic" and "A Sky Full of Stars" offer a mix of evocative electronic melodies and intimate lyrics, creating an enveloping atmosphere.
