^ Did you see it in theaters?

I can't believe it was 2006 the last time I posted in here!

Some news:

U2 NEW ALBUM INFORMATIONThe following is a running collection of news, rumors, quotes, and other information related to U2's next STUDIO album. We'll continue to post updates to this page as we get new information. If you have found a quote or news item about the new album, you're welcome to share it by emailing webmaster @ atu2.com.

ALBUM NAME: unknown; possibly No Line On The Horizon, based on a Universal Music domain registration of nolineonthehorizon.com
PRODUCER(s Brian Eno, Daniel Lanois, and Steve Lillywhite have all been in the studio during album sessions
ALBUM RELEASE DATE: A reliable source tells @U2 the album will be released on November 18 in N. America. That would presumably mean November 17 worldwide, except certain countries that get new releases even earlier (November 14).
FORMATS: unknown
TRACKLIST: unknown
POSSIBLE SONGS MENTIONED:
These are songs that have been mentioned in the buildup to U2's next studio album:

• "The Cedars of Lebanon" - Daniel Lanois revealed this track in an interview with the Montreal magazine, Voir. He said the song was inspired by Jimi Hendrix.
• "Moment of Surrender" - Brian Eno reportedly told fans about this song outside Hanover Quay studios in early June, 2008. Eno called it "the best thing" he's recorded with U2.
• "For Your Love" - a song title seen on the band's white board, as described in this article from the Fez recording sessions
• "One Bird" - a song title seen on the band's white board, as described in this article from the Fez recording sessions
• "No Line On The Horizon" - Bono and Edge played this song for a USA Today writer during an in-the-car interview at the Sundance Film Festival. On hearing it, writer Anthony Breznican says "heavy distortion fills the car," and later adds: "The song is rough, weaving between brutal guitar blasts underscoring the mellow title refrain." Edge explains that the song "It came out of a new distortion box that my guitar tech got."
• Unknown Title - in the same interview with Anthony Breznican, Bono and Edge played a second song whose opening lyric is, "It's six o'clock...". Bono tells Breznican that numbers are significant in each of the new songs.
• "If I Could Live My Life Again" - Bono says this song is "inspired by the great Argentinian poet Jorge Luis Borges." Bono said he had just begun the song while speaking with author Michka Assayas in December, 2005. Their interview appears as the extra material in the paperback version of Bono in Conversation with Michka Assayas.
• "Love Is All We Have Left" - a song Bono named during his May, 2006, trip to Africa as one that he had recently written. "It’s like an old Broadway tune. I thought it was a Frank Sinatra song," Bono said.
• "North Star," a song from the How To Dismantle an Atomic Bomb sessions which included a guest organ appearance from Michael W. Smith. In this CCM article, Smith describes the song as a tribute to Johnny Cash.
• "Mercy", one of the last songs to get cut from How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb, described in Blender magazine as "a six-and-a-half-minute outpouring of U2 at its most uninhibitedly U2-ish"
• "Lead Me In The Way I Should Go" -- a contender for Atomic Bomb first mentioned in this February, 2003, interview with Bono in Grammy Magazine
• "You Can't Give Away Your Heart" - a contender for Atomic Bomb first mentioned in SPIN magazine

It still hasn't premiered in my country, it will probably be on the theatres on August 29th. I also have to buy the new remastered editions of their first three albums. I'll have three copies of War if I do so.

 

[Nemova]

Oh, and thanks for the info, Erin.

 

[Erin]

I'm sad that "Mercy" didn't make it onto the new record...

What does everybody think? Nemova?

"Magnificent" and "No Line on the Horizon" have been stuck in my head all week... though I must admit, the album has taken a few listens to sink in.

^ I still haven't bought it, Erin. I did listen to "Get on your boots" and I didn't like it. I have a feeling this will be a Pop sort of experience - or so I hope. I didn't like Pop the first time I listened to it but eventually it grew on me.

 

[Erin]

^ I must warn you... it's a bit different from Pop... funny, I was hoping for an Achtung Baby sort of experience.. But I would say it's a bit of a mix of ATYCLB and something new - a bit more funky.
