Musical activists Coldplay have released new track 'Death Will Never Conquer' into the ether of the internet.

Available from the band’s website the previously unreleased song is a gift to all the fans who have supported the them through the ever successful Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends era and to celebrate the start of their world tour.

The track is a stripped down bluegrass affair featuring only Martin and his ivories.

A statement on the site says: “Tonight’s the first night of the tour. To say thank you to everyone who’s bought tickets and supported us hear’s a new song…”

Leaving fans on a bit of a cliffhanger the message ends, “You'll hear it at the concerts with a twist...”

It will be safe to say that this twist will not feature doom metal, drum and bass, dubstep or free jazz.
