Chris Martin and Jonny Buckland met during their first week at University College London , in September 1996. They began to write their first songs together in early 1997. Guy Berryman was the third to join the band months later, and the trio recorded numerous demos without a drummer, calling themselves Big Fat Noises by November. In January 1998, Will Champion joined. He said that Martin, Buckland and Berryman came to his house because his roommate was a good drummer with a drum kit; however, when the roommate did not arrive, Champion played instead.
