Coldplay announce new album
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 15 August 2011
Coldplay will release their fifth studio album, ‘Mylo Xyloto’, through EMI/Parlophone on 24 Oct. The album was produced by Markus Dravs, Daniel Green, and Rik Simpson, with additional tinkering from Brian Eno. Artwork comes courtesy of American illustrator David A Carter.
Chris Martin told Billboard: “The hope for the record is to be free from any musical kind of box. It very much comes from the Brian Eno professorship of ‘go anywhere. As long as it’s you guys, you can go anywhere’. [There is] also a story, supposed to be loosely a kind of romance in an oppressive environment. It’s sort of a love story”.
