Chris Martin Talks About New Coldplay Album

After a self-imposed two-year hiatus, Coldplay's Chris Martin leaked some information about the band's anticipated follow-up to 2005's X&Y. Martin told Yahoo! news that the British foursome are currently working with producer Brian Eno and that they're trying out new things.

"I think for a long time, people felt like we were a band in black and white," said Martin, "And now we feel like because we have this incredible job, now we can do whatever we like and try all kinds of new things." He then added, "I can't tell you about it, but it's basically genius."

Oh, those modest Brits.

"In order for us to get excited about a new album, we have to have one song that we feel like everybody has to hear before we die, otherwise we'll be terribly depressed," he continued. "So luckily with this new record we're going to make, we have that one song." And we can't wait to hear it.
