There are also a lot of [new songs]: four new albums' worth. In addition to Songs of Ascent -- a second set of tracks from the No Line sessions -- and Bono and the Edge's score for the Spider-Man musical (finally set to open on Broadway on December 21st), U2 are working on a "rock album," as Bono puts it, "and a club-sounding album." He expects U2 will release a new record, drawn from that body of songs, in time for their return to North America next year. "That's going to be great. Those people (meaning me to the Oakland and Anaheim show)are going to have tickets to a whole new show with new songs."
August 4, 2010: Just a couple days before the start of the 2010 tour, U2 did an interview with the Italian newspaper, La Stampa. In it, Bono says that U2 now has four separate album-related projects:
"an ambient album, Songs of Ascent"
"a rock album"
a "club music" album
"the soundtrack of Spiderman, the musical debuting on Broadway in November"
"an ambient album, Songs of Ascent"
"a rock album"
a "club music" album
"the soundtrack of Spiderman, the musical debuting on Broadway in November"
Looks like like we will have a great start to 2011! I love U2 and I can't wait to hear their new songs!
