Agree
We have a cookie called Bono, which it's pretty tasty

And when you warm it up? Bono is HOT!
Maybe they're just wasting some time trying new (not good) things. Originally posted by AllBecauseOfU2:According to Kanye West, will.I.am from the Black Eyed Peas is producing some of U2's new material:

Kanye West has taken to his blog to break news about the new U2 album.
According to West, Black Eyed Peas man Will.I.Am is producing some material on the new record, which has been delayed until next year.
In his usual caps–filled post style, West writes:
“WILL I AM IS PRODUCING ON U2's NEXT ALBUM. I'M SURE IT WILL BE DOPE AS SHIT JUDGING FROM THE CRAZY BEATS HE'S DONE IN THE PAST 3 YEARS!”
The follow up to 2004’s ‘How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb’ was due to come out this year, but in September The Edge told NME.COM that the band were “still writing and we're trying to take it to the next level."
Last month, Interscope-Geffen-A&M chairman Jimmy Iovine said he met with the band, who told him the album was two songs short, so the release date was adjusted to give them time to work on those tracks.
The band’s long-time producer Daniel Lanois said that that “rock 'n' roll has been reinvented one more time" on the record, rumoured to be called 'No Line On The Horizon'.
Brian Eno has also contributed production to the album, which is due early next year.
