Chris Martin has set an end date for Coldplay.

The band’s frontman shared the exact moment he thinks the band will retire even though they have a new album coming out.

“We’re only going to do 12 proper albums and that’s the truth. Yes, I promise,” he said, according to subway.

Martin added: “Because less is more and for some of our critics, even less is more! It’s really important that we have that limit.”

Coldplay are currently preparing to release their new album, Moon Musicon October 4. This will be their tenth release.

“There are only seven Harry Potter. There are only 12.5 Beatles albums, Bob Marley has the same album, so do all our heroes,” Martin elaborated.

“Also, having that limit means that the quality control is so high now and for a song to make it it’s almost impossible, which is great. And so, we I’m trying to improve as much as I can, we’re trying to improve.”

“I know I can tell you: Our last proper record will come out in 2025 and then I think we’ll just tour. Maybe we’ll do some collaborations but The Coldplay catalog is done,” he said through I news.

Coldplay formed in 1996 but did not enter the mainstream charts until several years later. Since then, they have sold millions of albums and are currently on the Music of the Spheres Tour. CBS reported that the trip made more than $1 billion.
