Coldplay 4th Album Update 31/01/2008 [One Month To Go!]
Wednesday 30th January (2008) Devon, UK
Back home for a few days. A brief rest before the final push.
Another four or five weeks and we should be home and dry: another ten mixes + re-recording one of the songs from scratch.
In times gone by I would have set aside a month to re-record a track. However, the week before Christmas, we recorded two tracks in four days - Lovers In Japan and Strawberry Swing.
On the fifth day (Friday), Chris put down new lyrics (and new melodies) on two other tracks. It was far and away the most productive and exciting week we’ve ever had in the studio. I was buzzing all through Christmas. Since then, mixing has been slow and painstaking but that’s just the nature of the beast.
So… give us another month or so and we might just have an album worthy of your patience.
Prospekt. PS - album title ? prospekt!
Thanks to Coldplay.com for the great news!
