It's been a few days now since Coldplay revealed that their new video for Life In Technicolor ii would feature the band as puppets, and finally this story has hit the media-waves. First up, here's Stereogum today:
All sorts of news out from Coldplay HQ today, starting with a preview of the "Life In Technicolor II" video, which premieres on 4Music in the UK Tuesday night. Like Kanye and Genesis before them, the band became puppets for the clip. The just-released stills show them performing for lil' Coldplay fans. I hope they release the puppets as toys so I can make Chris Martin fight with my Joe Satriani doll and make sweet love to my Jay-Z doll. As you might have guessed, the Prospekt's March tune is the official next single, to be released on 7" and digitally 2/2 with a new song, "The Goldrush," on the b-side.
Meanwhile if you haven't heard, there is a backstage Vlog flying about from Coldplay's recent European Tour with Albert Hammond Jnr. It features some Coldplay content including Chris Martin playing ping-pong after a show and Roadie 42's bubble wrapping of Marguerite's desk. There is also some roadie-in-action coverage, including Bash and the confetti man Brook Blomquist. Where can you watch it? In the Coldplay Live forum right here [thanks mimixxx]
