Coldplay
frontman
Chris
Martin
has
said
that
the
band
will
stop
recording
new
music
in
2025.
The
44-year-old
musician
made
the
revelation
during
an
appearance
on
BBC
Radio
2's
special
broadcast.
"Our
last
proper
record
will
come
out
in
2025,
and
after
that
I
think
we
will
only
tour," Martin
said.
"And
maybe
we'll
do
some
collaborative
things
but
the
Coldplay
catalogue,
as
it
were,
finishes
then," he
added.
Martin
leads
the
band
which
also
includes
Jonny
Buckland,
Guy
Berryman
and
Will
Champion.
Coldplay
released
their
ninth
album,
'Music
of
the
Spheres',
in
October
this
year.
The
band
is
set
to
embark
on
a
global
tour
next
year.
At
the
time
of
the
album's
release,
Martin
had
said
that
the
band
might
stop
after
releasing
three
more
albums.
"This
is
not
a
joke,
this
is
true.
I
think
after
12
that
will
be
the
end
of
our
catalogue,
but
I
think
we
will
always
want
to
play
live
together,"
Martin
told
Absolute
Radio.
"So,
I
think
in
the
way
that
the
(Rolling)
Stones
do,
it
will
be
so
cool
if
we
can
still
be
touring
in
our
late
70s.
That
will
be
wonderful
if
anybody
wants
to
come,"
he
added.
Coldplay's
first
album
was
2000's
'Parachutes',
followed
by
'A
Rush
of
Blood
to
the
Head'
(2002),
'X&Y'

la
Vida'
