Coldplay announce new album A Head Full Of Dreams

Coldplay frontman Chris Martin unveiled the album title last night (December 4) on Zane Lowe’s BBC Radio 1 show.

"We haven't told anyone this, but we're making an album called A Head Full Of Dreams,” Chris told Zane, “We're right in the middle of it.

"It's our seventh thing and we look at it as the last Harry Potter book or something like that.

"Not to say that there won't be another thing one day, but this is the completion of something. It was great to go from Ghost Stories right back in the studio.”

Upon its release, Coldplay’s sixth studio album, Ghost Stories, became one of the fastest-selling albums of the year shifting over 168,000 copies in its first week.
