  1. I think it's a good thing that they are still writing lots of stuff. At least they've still got that and they're not struggling to get 10 songs to whack on an album.

    Next year is OK with me - we've got enough coming out in the last quarter of 2013 to keep us satisfied.

    Maybe they've scrapped all the supposedly "almost complete albums" they had with Rick Rubin, RedOne, Will I Am, Danger Mouse, etc, and they're struggling to get 10 songs anyway, we really don't know.
  3. Well maybe.

    But I'd be happy with the songs we know they've already written. I know others will disagree, but honestly some of those songs are better than 80% of the stuff they've written since Achtung Baby.
  4. and if at this point they're not satisfied at all with what they've done till now and they're trashing it? .. next year could be too early ..
  5. perhaps after trying all those 'relevant' producers they will return to Eno/Lanois after all......
    would be fine by me!
    maybe even try a little Flood.....
  6. Try whatever but give me some fucking stuff soon

  7. Patience my friend... we'll get stuff eventually, but I'm afraid it won't soon!
  8. They better not be overproducing again..... ATYCLB is an example for how ''fake'' the songs will sound then.
  9. So Edge is on fire.
  10. Here's what I think.

    The album is done. The album has been done. There are probably copies of the album sitting in a warehouse somewhere with no labels printed on them to make it seem innocuous.

    They are waiting to book all their tour dates so when they decide to release the album, they do it on the exact same day as they announce the tour and start selling tickets. This way, people who want to see U2 live again will inevitable have to buy the new album regardless of how good it is because nobody wants to be that guy who's never heard the new song played at a concert. They will start the tour within a month after the album release, so nobody will have time to judge the album. Critics will tremble in fear because they won't want to write a critical review of a song that becomes an instant hit on stage. U2 will literally force their way into relevancy because nobody will want to criticize their boldness.
  11. Well I hope you're right.

    And with Bono on a new continent every other day, I must say that I think they album is either practically done, or the complete opposite.
