London: Members of rock band Coldplay say they were hypnotised while recording for their new album Mylo Xyloto.
The Paradise rockers were put into a trance by a friend of producer Brian Eno to help them focus on creating new sounds, reported Contactmusic.
“We’re not afraid to try different things. Brian Eno brought a friend in and the four of us were playing music under hypnosis.
We have been in a band long enough where we are comfortable to explore new ideas.
It didn’t really come to anything. You try 10 ideas and only one works. But nothing is too stupid for us,” frontman Chris Martin said.
The singer also spoke about people who have accused them of plagiarism. “Its fine to not like the band, but it’s not right to accuse us of plagiarism.
It’s a very big difference between criticism and accusation,” Martin said. (PTI)
