<strong>The rejected artwork for Coldplay's 2013 single, from the Hunger Games : Catching Fire soundtrack, <em>Atlas</em> has surfaced online. It's believed to be from before the band hired Czech born artist, Mila Fürstová for their sixth album, <em>Ghost Stories</em>.</strong><!--more-->

 

 

The revelation is in the form of an artwork video hosted by recentlyrejected.com, designed by Mario Hugo and Sam Mason as a process sketch for the band:
