The album will feature nine tracks including 'Midnight' and 'Magic'. The latter song will likely serve as the first proper single off 'Ghost Stories', reported Ace Showbiz.
Unlike Bon Iver-esque 'Midnight', 'Magic' sounds more like Coldplay's previous works although there's an electronic beat and an R&B-influenced melody.
The British band has reportedly worked with magician Joe Labero, actor Peter Fonda and Swedish director Jonas Akerlund for the music video of this new song.
Ghost Stories marks Coldplay's sixth studio effort. It comes as the follow-up to their 2011 Grammy award-nominated album Mylo Xyloto.
