New Coldplay Album Almost Complete

Coldplay are expected to return with a new studio album much sooner than originally anticipated.

The band told their fans that they were disappearing from the public eye at last year's Brit Awards, but a new CD is almost completed following the success of some recent recording sessions.

"There's no-one more surprised than the band. They genuinely did intend to take these sessions at a very leisurely pace," a source told the Daily Star. "However, they went better than anyone could possibly have hoped for and a vast amount of material is already in the can."
