Does that mean the new album will be out next year? Can't wait to hear "Christmas Lights" even if it's only a holiday song... (Was this grammatically right?)

All I can say is: about time. Here's hoping that this album will have something as epic as "Viva la Vida" and "Violet Hill."

A new album is definitely coming out in 2011. Unsure whether or not this will be the first single from the project or just a Christmas single, but I'm looking forward to it either way. |

They're releasing a song called 'Christmas Lights' on December 1st and the 5th album is finished! Picking out the tracklist right now! Here's some pictures of the video shoot, a handwritten note, and some album info. I thought the band just admitted that every song they've recorded in initial studio sessions, including "Wedding Bells" which they recently performed, isn't even close to completion and that even "Wedding Bells" as we know it should be regarded as a sketch. The article indeed makes no mentioning of the album's status and only confirms this separate single's release and video. Namaste, Lisping Hibiscus |

Did you read a read a new interview recently? I hope that they bring it again like they did with their last album. Hopefully we see the record no later than April 2011. |

Woah really? I'm not a massive fan, but I love some of the stuff from their last album in particular. Viva La Vida, Lost...

Source... www.digitalspy.com/music/news/a289865/coldplay-ready-risky-new-album.htmlThat may be true, but it also seems like what they're planning to do next is continuously re-record the tracks they choose to represent this album until they are arranged to their liking. You may recall how "Talk" underwent several significant stages of evolution before settling in the form most are aware of on "X&Y". Even so, I know many fans who still insist the leaked preceding version is the superior one, which is drastically different from the edgier album version. Chris Martin has also acknowledged there are nine different versions of "42" and three starkly different versions of their hit "Viva La Vida". I think that's what they're doing with these tracks after selecting them, and that may be what they meant by that they're "not even close" to completing the recording sessions despite having a clear idea of the direction and concept for their record.

Namaste, Lisping Hibiscus Where did he say they were "not even close to being done"? Source?Nevermind. Apparently this was said at a meet & greet. The album is still on schedule to come out in 2011 though. And he apparently said that "although the album is finished, we haven't finished anything at all" so the scenario you just described is probably what the scenario is. Namaste, Me  |

Namaste, Me Perhaps I shouldn't have placed those words in quotation marks as I was paraphrasing, but here's the source from two months ago: www.musicalyptus.com/2010/09/coldplay-canceled-fifth-album-release/It may very well be that the band is choosing the song selection now just so they assure a record consistent with their desired destination and intention, but in essence much of the arranging, composition and recording of the songs hasn't been completed yet and can very well take a while.

I can't wait for new Coldplay music.
I very much admire the fact that they change things up and always come up with new sounds and no album is the same, but I have to admit I hope they go a little bit back to their first sounds, to that more intimate stuff.
But anyways, they've never disappointed me and I'm really excited for new music.
Even xmas music! I love Chris version of hyamlc.

"Christmas Lights" opens with 90,000 (NJo. 12 Digital Songs), resulting in a No. 25 debut on the Hot 100. It debuts at No. 1 on Holiday/Seasonal Digital Songs.

Coldplay have revealed that their forthcoming album has a storyline. The group, who are working on the follow-up to 2008's Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends, said that while they have just to finalise the LP's track listing, a theme will run through the tracks. "It's from the point of view of two people who are a bit lost," Chris Martin told the BBC. "Two like-minded outsiders who meet in a very difficult environment and therefore have a journey together." He added: "It's a concept album but it's supposed to be very personal within a big framework. Does that make sense?" The 'Yellow' singer also admitted his bandmates - guitarist Johnny Buckland, bassist Guy Berryman and drummer Will Champion - can be tough in their views on his songwriting, although he insists that their methods produce results. He explained: "Jonny [Buckland] is delightful, he's the easiest to convince. It's when you have to take a verse to Guy [Berryman] or Will [Champion] that things become very tearful. You can forget there are other people in the world. "I'm so lucky that we have that group, in as much as there are a lot of people who don't like us in the world, but there would be a lot more without this filtering system. Think of the rubbish that doesn't get out, if you don't like the stuff that does." Coldplay's as-yet-untitled LP is slated for release next year. www.digitalspy.com/music/news/a293099/coldplay-reveal-concept-album-plans.html |

Fell head over heels for these guys during the X&Y era and I dusted off VLV the other day and was amazed at the artistry that went into it. I can't wait to see them again live and to have new music.
