U2 working on album #7002
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 26 January 2010
Good news, everyone, U2 are working on a new album. Some of the songs are super futuristic, while others are like traditional folk, but not really like traditional folk because they are so futuristic. Like every U2 album, it will push music forward by ten years.
The Edge told Entertainment Weekly: “We are working on a lot of new songs. Some of them are really, really happy. We’re convinced that we have something really special. Literally, within a day of getting off the road, Bono and I were working on new songs. On a roll”.
He continued: “We try and keep things moving forward. We are experimenting with a lot of different arrangements, and electronic [music] is one of the things we are playing with. But there are other songs that are very traditional, almost folk. In some ways, that’s the thing we haven’t figured out yet, is where this album is going to end up. [But] we’re having fun with the process”.
