Via Billboard: Eno revealed the news in an interview with BBC Radio 4′s ‘Front Row’, and says the new material “will be very original and very different from what they’ve done before.” Coldplay are currently holed up in their recently purchased London studio, having started arranging the follow-up to 2005′s ‘X&Y’ last October.

Guitarist Jonny Buckland last year revealed exclusively to NME.com that the band started writing the new album as soon as they completed ‘X&Y’. The band will showcase the new material to fans on their Latin American tour, which kicks off on February 14 in Santiago, Chile.

Hmm, this sounds promising to me.
