The band subsequently denied this through their official website, which also announced a new South American tour for the beginning of 2007. During this tour, the band began writing new material for their fourth studio album, but no new material was played, due to the band's concerns that their performances would leak onto the Internet.

A Coldplay spokesperson was unavailable for comment at deadline. Eno didn't discuss the pairing in detail, but said he expected the as- yet-untitled album "will be very original and very different from what they've done before." He also joked with host Kristy Lang about the pervasiveness of rock music that resembles former Eno client the Talking Heads. "Funnily enough, I mentioned to David Byrne the other day that we are trying very hard to stay clear of Talking Heads," he said. Eno's most recent pop production project was Paul Simon's "Surprise," released last year via Warner Bros." http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/search/google/article_display.jsp? vnu_content_id=1003538468

- 15. All of the things listed in this presentation is what is done on the launch of a new album, ecspecially for an award- winning band such as Coldplay. The promotion of the album is vital, the band needs to be in every major music magazine, in the press, doing interviews with major music shows, releasing dates on their website and touring the country. Without all these things the album would flop! It needs as much promotional work as the work that went into making the album...and my has it paid off!
