Coldplay's new album shaping up well

By Raymond Ronamai

Here is good news for music lovers. Popular rock band Coldplay's much-awaited fifth album is on the verge of completion. Band members Chris Martin, Guy Berryman, Will Champion and Jonny Buckland are currently working on the album in London and is shaping up well.

“Back in the studio, the songs are now very much pushing their heads above the soil and straining towards the light. I suspect that the band has had a reasonable idea all along of how things will feel when they"re finished, in the same way that a sculptor sees the finished piece, but just needs to dig it out of the block. There"s been much chiselling and smoothing and now things are really developing a recognisable form and an emotional resonance.," wrote Roadie #42, blogger of the band.

The blog didn't reveal the release date of the album but hinted that the band members are working hard to make it a good one. “There's no better aural equivalent of the bursting growth of spring than the laying on of backing vocals. The fellas are gathered around the mic for much of the time. It's a tremendous thing to get close up to. When the guys are belting it out with the track on headphones, all that can be heard in the room is the blast of harmonies. It's huge, powerful and yet completely unaided by technology, just a pure, organic human bloom," it added.
