Coldplay New Album For 2009?

Coldplay could release the follow up to June’s ‘Viva La Vida or Death And All His Friends’ next year.

The band apparently have enough tracks left over from the recording sessions of their fourth album to form a fifth which would help the band to escape from their current contract with EMI. “The majority of the follow-up is already in the can,” a source tells The Sun, “though they will have to go back into the studio at some point to add a few more songs” an insider informed the paper. “Standard industry contracts tend to be for six albums, so if they provide some kind of compilation after their next album they will be free agents and able to renegotiate their contract or head out on their own.”
