Album Notes & Community Reviews
Produced by Brian Eno, 'Mylo Xyloto' is a neon-colored concept album set in a dystopian future. Coldplay embraces electronic pop fully, collaborating with Rihanna and utilizing heavy synthesizers. While lyrically vague, the music is massive and designed for stadium spectacles.
