This is the sound of a band full of easy confidence. We’re treated to a blast of vintage Coldplay on “All I Can Think About Is You”—a simmering slow burner of *Parachutes*-era intensity—while the sunset pop of “Miracles (Someone Special)” sees Big Sean add his name to the band\'s roster of unlikely-but-satisfying collaborators.

5.8 / 10

Held up by two good-to-great songs, the lightweight EP is Coldplay’s first release in years that feels more like a clearing of the throat than a new, distinct statement.

The sister-piece to ‘A Head Full of Dreams’, Coldplay have recruited Big Sean and Brian Eno for their latest offering ‘Kaleidoscope EP’

Our take on the five-song collection from the British hitmakers.

Coldplay capitalize on the multicolored positivity of A Head Full of Dreams with Kaleidoscope, an EP that ties together all the threads left hanging by that sparkling 2015 album.
