New CD set to be out before mid-2008...
Rock act Coldplay have announced that they're nearly finished with their fourth studio album. Since last reported on, the band has added two new tracks to the list, including "Famous Old Painters" and "Glass Of Water". The album, produced by the legendary Brian Eno, is scheduled for release in the first half of 2008. It follows 2005's X&Y.
Frontman Chris Martin had plenty to say about the new set. "It feels like a very dense record...There are so many melodies and colors packed into a relatively short space...As you'd expect with Brian Eno, there's experimentation and exploration...But the music still has integrity. It's real and honest. There's no posturing or bombast...When the deadline comes and the work is done, this will be the album I always dreamed we'd make."
