I asked myself the same yesterday. I pretty much agree with Fabian above... I would like to see U2 getting a big hit single just for the sake of it and for the sake of hearing our favorite band on tne radio with any song that's been recorded after 1991
In 2010 Bono mentioned three albums (in La Stampa I believe):
- Ambient album with Eno and Lanois (aka Songs of Ascent)
- Rock album with Danger Mouse
- Club album with will.i.am, Guetta and RedOne
Just like Genaro said ten hours ago, I don't believe the 2010 songs will be released as we know it. Out of the three above, the first one is also the least probable in September,
Which leaves me with two possibilities left. Note that will.i.am will be releasing a solo album this year (he has about thirty finished collaboration tracks to choose from) and Guetta has been working on his own album and Rihanna's latest recently. Moreover, would U2 prefer the club album instead of a rock album? Bono and Edge probably do, but I'm not sure about Larry.

@yvonnejudge
And there's more; Larry Mullen Jnr reveals another album on the way soon after; #U2 hope, as told to @DaveFanningShow on #2fm, tx Sat 10am
I fairly optimistic about the September release date, I think we all knew an album was coming, it was just a matter of when. I'll take the second album comment with a pinch of salt though.
Let the beaching start with some new bitch clips! Oh wait...
