    Levitate, to me, captures the essence of ATYCLB. I think this album will, like Achtung, be ahead of its time. Although if the new album were to be like Levitate, that would be awesome!


    yeah like I said I wasn't really trying to analyze just a brief thought about the style of the song

    Not really. The closest to it would be something like Slug (Passengers) and was a large(ish) hint as to what would come next: Pop. Zooropa (the song, not the album) and Some Days Are Better Than Others could also be counted as being psychedelic with the different sounds.

    yeah I would say no to that. Slug to me is much more of an ambient thing, in the largest stretch of the word I suppose some parts of Zooropa could be considered though. Never been a big of psychedelia, hence why I like U2 haha
  5. Imagine if their next few video clips had them driving around in Kombi vans...and swirly colours.

    VW is the brand, kombi is the name of the car, the "model".

    Along the same lines of Bono in "Across the Universe"?
  11. Via Interference, from U2.com forum posters talking to Sam yesterday at HQ:

    "One part of album will have strong Moroccan influence for definite. The singles have been picked and work is commencing on Radio edits of all. Band deciding what tracks are going on to album. Also some very up tempo / hard stuff on there

    Be there for 3 weeks minimum but maybe up to six depending on progress with mixes, video, photography etc. On schedule for November release but if they dont make that it will be March with tour delayed. Will not rush it out as they dont want another POP scenario.

    Adam on vacation and Bono away on DATA business, no word as to when they'll be back."
