Music news
New Cold play material “quite different”
Brian Eno has spoken about his involvement on the new Cold play album.
The band revealed last month that they are returning to the studio with Eno for their upcoming fifth album this spring, which front man Chris Martin later announced he wants to release before Christmas.
The veteran producer, who helmed Coldplay’s 2008 album Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends, told BBC 6 Music that he has forced them out of their comfort zones on the record.
“It’s not rocket science, and it’s not Svengali-ism either,” he explained. “It’s not some attempt to subvert the band, but just to see what other possibilities are lurking within them that might not come out within their normal working situations.”
Describing the group’s latest tracks, he added: “It’s quite different from anything they’ve done before, I think, so far anyway. I don’t know how it will end up being, but it’s very fresh.”
Ke$ha ‘gets naked before going on stage’
Ke$ha has admitted that she and her band perform a ritual before every concert.
The ‘Blah Blah Blah’ singer told The Sun that she strips off every time she is about to go on stage.
“Me and my band get naked, lather ourselves in baby oil, then roll in glitter,” she explained. “We do it before every gig.”
Ke$ha recently revealed that she is attracted to Ricky Gervais
