I'm sure I remember Coldplay promising to take a bit of a rest. Ah well, one can still dream. But the band are in fact working on a new album, and the latest news is that they've strenuously denied the rumour that it is to be called 'Prospekt' in a recent online post. They do, however, tell fans that they've just had "the most productive and exciting week we've ever had in the studio", but adding that "mixing has been slow and painstaking but that's just the nature of the beast. So... give us another month or so and we might just have an album worthy of your patience".
The new LP, produced by Brian Eno, is expected to be out in May.
