A Taste
Filed under: Music Minute
Coldplay is hard at work on their new album, to be released (hopefully) some time this year.
They've hired longtime U2 collaborator Brian Eno to produce and the new material is said to be "something different."
Rolling Stone has an exclusive preview of the new record - as well as track by track details on each song.

FIRST

Fart sniffers
ME LOVES SOME COLDPLAY!!!!! YAY!!!!
THEY SUCK!!! all their m,usic sounds the same.
wow who cares?
Yay!
Cannot wait!
NOT A BIG FAN OF THEIRS. I FIND THEIR SONG ANNOYING..
EXCELLENT!!! I heart them so..
it better be good; they've been away for a while now and oh how the music scene is completely different these days …
So excited! such a talented band, cant wait for their new album im sure it will be awesome and worth the wait!
awwww coool!
Tell us about the Jonathan Jaxson article in the Post today? He claims he fell in lvoe with you.
Who Cares They Suck and of course they hired someone from U2 because they sound exactly like fucking U2. Whiny bullshit. No originality.
Re: why am i always right? – A while? What concept of time do you have??????
noo! "something different"??? i wish they would just go back to making music like their old one. they began drifting away with X&Y.. this one is probably gonna be worse
… still.. i love coldplay with all my heart XD
i hate coldplay!
they're trying to be like radiohead but their music sucks and their lyrics don't mean shit.
Awesome! they are great, an actual real band! I am so happy to hear about their continued growt. Gwyneth Paltrow is one blessed woman to have that guy, plus every other great thing she has! It's good, though! I am happy about it.
Coldplay are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo BORING!
Arrrgggg, I thought we were actually going to get a listen. I can't wait!
I haven't heard the album, but I am going to tell you it it terrible! Just an educated guess…;)
Thanks so much Perez for the update! I saw Coldplay in concert a few years ago and they were awesome. Chris Martin plays piano like that kid from the Peanuts comic strip. What was his name???
The guy is talented , passionate and puts on one Hell of a concert!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Brian Eno worked with Daivd Bowie on the album Heros and was in a band called Roxy Music with Brian Ferry that is some old school collaberation.
You know how I know you're gay?????
….You like Coldplay.
Chris Martin looks like the guy from House. It's kind of weird.
Can't wait!!!
Yeah!! They´re AMAZING! I met them last year, and they´re great! Very nice, humble people
LOVEEEE COLDPLAY…..THEY RUXZ
No wonder they used a U2 collaborater. Borrrrrrrring. they will fade away. Not soon enough!

Coldplay is awesome. If you like good music GOOGLE Levar Thomas
I want to see Eno back with Roxy Music their early albums were some crazy shit and influenced the likes of John Lennon, David Bowie, Duran Duran, Gary Numan and countless others why is he working with a top 40 easy listening band?
Coldplay should send a Christmas card to DAVE MATTHEWS BAND everyday. Coldplay makes the most ridiculous excuse for music I've heard to date.
They would have absolutely NO CAREER without DMB leading the way. Period.
Finally! I do love love love coldplay one of my fav bands.
"longtime U2 collaborator" ?? That's how you would introduce Brian Eno??
loveeeeee them!!!!
can't wait!!!!!!!!!
i do not click on links
OMG! I'm such a fan of horrible music!
i hear MAXIM didn't like coldplay's new album
I love ColdPlay but I also absolutely LOVE this new music vid that is going to hit it BIG time in just a short time…check out you tube, "Gonna Get Luv" by the amazing writers and producers of the song, all the big time peeps love the song…just releasing it early to get some feedback on it first…love to you Perez!
Re: dinkus mcGoofus – so funny! Love love love Coldplay, most original band since the Beatles.
You probably do not read these, but you have been a guilty pleasure of mine for longer than I'd like to admit. I appreciate you trying to expose people to new music (even if it means becoming Warner Brothers lackey soon) by expecting to know of their preexisting influences. This is why I'm so shocked that Brian Eno's name isn't even in bold! He is one of the seminal living artists of our time, and though his work has suffered through collaborations with U2, Paul Simon and now Coldplay (ugh), he at least deserves some independent recognition apart from being constantly aligned with artist who cheapened his original message (hey– rings true for you too, so I guess I can't expect that much more from you).

Hell to the YEAH!! Coldplay effing ROCKS! WOOOOO!
youre a fucking idiot. to refer to brian eno as a U2 collaborator shows just how ignorant and lazy you are. put down your big mac, go to allmusic.com and just type in his name, it doesnt take a lot of effort.
seriously, im offended that you only mention brian eno as a u2 collaborator - he's worked with so many better, more important artists than those twits.
Man, I can't wait for this. I'm sure it'll be..zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Re: Gwyneth – really? most original band? ever listen to radiohead? because all cold play is is a derivative, watered down version of them before they got truly creative and made ok computer and kid a.
Based on my educated guess, I am giving this record one star. And a few yawns and a couple of crickets chirping. *Led Zeppelin Tour 2008 - Let's Hope!*
I must correct you on something Perez, Brian Eno is WAY more famous for starting Roxy Music in the 1970s with Bryan Ferry than working with U2. The guy is equally way more famous for his own musical creations. I think the point is that he's been around as long as the earth was cooling and deserves more universal greatness props than some work with U2.
uhh perez, coldplay sucks.. like really hard. you've got some good music on your site, but coldplay ? i guess you've gota feed the masses
Brian Eno is a musical genius. If you don't know who he is check out Enoweb. He is the father of Electronica (too young to be called grandfather). If anyone can help a band make a good album it's Eno. Check out the first two Roxy Music albums and his solo stuff, "Here Come the Warm Jets" and "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy."
Which comedian said that Gwynnie used Coldplays music to put their kids to sleep? That was some funny shiz. Just thinking about Coldplay's music makes me want a nap.
Perez, you just fucking made my life!!!! My crappy week has been made perfect thanks to this.
COLDPLAY FUCKING SUCKS!!! U2 DOES TOO!!! WHO LISTENS TO THAT CRAP!
Its about time! Im STOKED for the new album!! LOVE Coldplay!!!
Yay, I am ready for something diff from these guys….
Sweet. Maybe Maxim will review it before it's written.
CANT WAIT!!!!
I got so sick of their fake shit. Their crap is hyped up shit. Chris Martin is a douchg bag. The other members should dumb his dumb ass and get a new lead singer, but they are too pansy to do that.
I don't know what bothers me more, the fact that Brian Eno's new project is a Coldplay album, or that Eno is aligned primarily with U2 in this blog…
always have been, always will be radiohead lite. and i'd never put a penny in the pocket of anyone as precious about themselves as the martin/paltrows. if you want to listen to a great UK band, check out james, who also worked with eno.
Chris Martin has gotten too big for his britches to produce anything of any substance or relevance.
IT'S ABOUT TIME!!! I
Coldplay is a U2 want to be band. They're good, but biggest band in theworld…that's a huge stretch. As far as Brian Eno…super talent, so I'm sure his work ethics and talent will be a huge plus for Coldplay's next album. The bad news for Chris Martin is that Brian Eno is in thes tudio with U2 as I type. My money is on U2.
I am getting so excited for their 4th album… this one will be there best - can not expect anything less!
All of their songs sound the same - whatever - who cares.
the doves are way better … coldplay MUAHAHAHAH
What is the guy from "House" doing in there?!
ICK! I can't listen to these guys anymore. Anyone that's got that fug, pretentious prat Paltrow riding their baloney pony grosses me too far out to contemplate anything else about them.
Thanks a bunch Perez!!
i
Who cares. Don't buy the new CD. They hate America. Don't give them any American dollars.
Re: Mia –
Oh please - why won't people just get over this stupid 'Gwyneth hates America' garbage… She was misquoted by a Portuguese tabloid - get over it and move on, people. It's sad that you STILL whine on about it. Anyway, it's got nothing to do with Coldplay's music.
Can't wait for the new album. They are amazing live. I like the guitarist best of all
;-)
Oh mi god. LOVE THEM.
the whats his name lead singer is known in da biz as one of the biggest divas around. and wont bathe!!!
