New U2 album has a name? 2008-08-03 by Alex101 | 14 Comments | According to atu2.com, U2's long-awaited new studio album, reportedly titled No Line on the Horizon, is tentatively scheduled for release on November 14, 2008 via Universal Music Group (November 17 in the UK and rest of Europe, and most likely November 18 in North America). The band's record company has already registered the internet domain name nolineonthehorizon.com - prompting speculation this will be the new record.
Earlier this week a 19-strong film crew headed to the Spanish city of Cadiz to shoot a video for the band's first single from the new album although the band were not believed to be present. An insider also said the U2 machine is gearing up for the release of one of the most keenly-awaited albums in recent years.
"The album is more or less all in the bag except for a few minor details," the source revealed. A lot of people have been waiting a long time for this album as they do with every U2 album. "But the word coming out is that the band is very, very happy with the end product and when U2 are happy it should be quite a piece of work. They're not easy to please."
No Line on the Horizon will be the first original work since the band released the smash-hit How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb in November 2004. It sold an incredible 10 million copies and picked up eight Grammy Awards.
U2 are also expected to announce details of a huge worldwide tour, which would almost certainly include a number of nights at the new O2 Arena in the Dublin Docklands - formerly known as the Point Theatre.
In a flurry of activity, the group have just re-released their first three albums - Boy, October and their 1983 classic, War - in extended formats and with previously unreleased tracks.

I saw the exact same story and was gonna post it, but didn't. Buying the domain name makes it seem like a sure thing.
Aren't we not supposed to just copy and past articles? If I remember correctly that's what you did. oh well....

not a big U2 fan, but might check this out for shits and giggles.

Also known as THE ALBUM TO END ALL ALBUMS.
Hah, seriously, I have a good feeling about this. I seriously think it could be their best since Achtung Baby.
You KNOW it'll win a Grammy.

I thought HTDAAB was one of their best works. I hope this shapes up to be just as good, even if it is 'experimental, middle-Eastern influenced with a hardcore slant'. Lol.

^^ agreed ..

That's my dad's Xmas present in the bag then.
Personally I like some of U2's songs but I can't listen to a whole album any more. Used to quite like them when I first got into music and still think Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby are pretty goodThis Message Edited On 08.03.08

The NME has got to be happy...they could do about 5 Verve cover spots, then about 10 for this here U2 album, and of course about 58 for the upcoming Oasis record.

sounds good, looking forward to it. who produced?
| | |
didn't brian eno do that

I really don't like U2 very much other than "I Still Haven't Found..." I fail to see their huge appeal.
| | |
I'm actually really keen for this.
