Martin, 37, announced the title on Radio 1 after the band topped Zane Lowe's 100 Hottest Records of the Year with their single 'Magic', reported Digital Spy.
Martin said the band are currently in the studio working on their seventh album.
"We haven't told anyone this, but we're making an album called A Head Full of Dreams. We're right in the middle of it," he said.
"Because it's you (Lowe), I'll tell you. I feel a bit nervous to have said it because I didn't get permission! It's our seventh thing and we look at it as the last Harry Potter book or something like that," he added.
