Coldplay's debut »Parachutes« from 2000 was played in every noughties student flat share, with the following albums the band made it into the big halls, they also released live and concept albums.

The latest album by the four Brits, "Music of the Spheres", was not well received by critics, but it featured stars such as the American singer and actress Selena Gomez and the South Korean K-pop group BTS.

Actually, Coldplay always knew how to adapt to the pop culture zeitgeist - nevertheless, the British band has now announced that they will record their last album in 2025.

That said singer Chris Martin of the BBC in a radio interview.

"Our last real record will be released in 2025," Martin told Radio 2, "and after that we will only go on tour, I think." Two years ago the band announced that they wanted to make their tours environmentally friendly.

Although there were some doubts as to how serious Martin is in interviews, the statement fits in with earlier statements.

The singer told NME magazine in October about the release of his band's ninth studio album, "Music of the Spheres", that the group would only record a total of twelve studio albums.

There may be joint projects with other musicians afterwards, Martin said in an interview with the BBC, "but the Coldplay catalog is then more or less closed."
