When you are eating ice cream by the pint and stalking the Facebook profile page of the one who broke your heart, this album will certainly provide the appropriate soundtrack.Ī deeply personal, introspective and at times, self-indulgent record, Ghost Stories comes prepared to offer you music to cater for every break up scenario. ![]() This is an album that is, if you will pardon the pun, haunted by failed relationships. Setting aside the fact that their sixth studio album coincides particularly poignantly with a very public ‘conscious uncoupling’, from the opening notes you are left in little doubt that Ghost Stories is Coldplay‘s ‘break up’ album. ![]() By Laura Carland 0 Coldplay – Ghost Stories ![]()
