Prospekt's March is an EP by English alternative rock band Coldplay, initially released on 21 November 2008 in Europe and Japan, and worldwide the following week.[2][3] It features several tracks left over from the studio sessions for Coldplay's fourth studio album, Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends.[4][5] It is also available in the deluxe edition of Viva la Vida.[6]
On 19 November 2008, Coldplay, through their website, announced that the release date would change to 21 November instead of 19 November. North American dates were brought forward to 24 November.[7]
The cover features Eugène Delacroix's original painting[8] Battle of Poitiers,[9] similar to the cover art for Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends. On 5 November, Coldplay offered an exclusive preview of the EP via their Facebook application[10] and through their website.[11]
The song "Glass of Water" entered the iTunes Top 100 songs and went on to be performed live by the band on 4Music. "Life in Technicolor II" debuted at #90 in the UK Singles Chart despite not being released as an official single. It has since been confirmed to be the EP's first single.[1] It later peaked at #28 upon its physical release on 8 February 2009. The song later went on to be nominated for Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals in the 2010 Grammy Awards.[12]
As of July 2009, Prospekt's March has sold 486,500 copies worldwide.[13]
