Coldplay are retiring after their 12th album
Chris Martin explaining that the decision echoes the legacy of other famous figures in history: “There are only seven Harry Potter books. The Beatles only made 12 and a half albums, Bob Marley had about the same, and they’re all our heroes. Plus, having that limit ensures quality.
While their 12th album will be their last full-length, Martin has hinted at possible side projects with fellow band members Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman and Will Champion after their official retirement. After the release of Moon Music, fans can expect just “two more proper albums” from the band before they wrap up their journey
The iconic British band Coldplay’s lineup includes Chris Martin, Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman, and Will Champion, with Phil Harvey as the band’s creative director.
The group, formed in 1997, initially performed under the names Big Fat Noises and Starfish before adopting the name Coldplay.
