A report in The Sun (August 21) suggests that the band's 'Viva La Vida..' sessions with producer Brian Eno had been so successful that they were now looking to rush-release a new album of already recorded material.

A source at the band's label EMI said: "The majority of the follow-up is already in the can, though they will have to go back into the studio at some point to add a few more songs."
