    Couldn't agree more.
  3. I don't know whether to believe they're starting again or not. But they were getting the radio edits and the videos follow usually a few months afterwards.

    This sounds like a reporter tripping through his wires, but if it's anything like the recording of Streets, Brian Eno wasn't happy with the tapes and tried to destroy them, forcing the band to start again, which wouldn't be great...but how do we know what it's gonna sound like? Simple...we don't.

    Maybe the songs (or even a select few) weren't very good and the reporter is right.


    Guitarist The Edge reveals band members have mostly messed around in the studio - and they have now decided to get stuck in and finish the record.


    That quote leads me to believe they have been messing around and are going to, with the seven months left to November, re-record the songs.

    It doesn't take long to create the record (usually, that's just going in and recording the vocals and backing tracks). But, it does take a long time to come up with concepts and ideas and thoughts to arrange the songs and do whatever else like editing and mastering of said record. Now should be the time they're putting titles down, giving advance copies to promoters...not redoing the whole lot.

  5. Dunno what to think of it...I don't believe they would throw away a year's work...doesn't make any sense to me. If these songs were weak, they should've know that much earlier.
  6. whatever it is... it gave me horrible dreams last night. i was at their future tour and it was a disaster! i dare not talk like that but man, an awful nightmare!!

    Agreed. A simple statement blown out of proportion to create a "shocking" news story. Luckily U2 fans are intelligent enough to recognize the truth when they hear it--and this certainly, sensibly, can't be the truth.
  8. i'm gullible. this is my first pre-album release since i've been a die hard fan. i never really bought their albums before i saw them live on the vertigo tour.

  9. yeah @U2 has confirmed that this is all bullshit reporting
