Last time around we knew the GOYB riff about a year and a half before the song was released.Same with MOS and UC... the only problem is that we don't know how far they are in completing the album D: what if they aren't even close!?
Originally posted by Genaro92U2:Same! That'd be ideal, or like on a Monday they'll announce it on U2.com "new song out Friday..." I'd be down for that too

Y'know what this remindes me of? U2's ability to reinvent themselves completely in the opposite direction of a current music trend. Example: in the 80s thier music was known for feeling so out of what was the most popular at that time: New Wave; in the 90s, the bands exploration of European textures while Grunge and Britpop were all the rage.
At this point with all the shock Pop music and the riegn of Pop in this time, the bands new album is bound to sound in the opposite of what's current today: Gaga, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, etc.
Of course I could be wrong but when it look at the bands history, I can't help but see a connection here.

If you mean the unique sensation of putting on the record and listen it all for the very first time... Yeah, it's magic. And even if itn's not the last one, I want it too

To be fair Achtung Baby came out before grunge really took off, and if you read At The End Of The World there's a few parts where the band talk about how they were a little peeved that grunge was being called alternative when they had worked so hard to change the rock scene.
Just getting technical :p

I tend to talk technical all the time (though math is my worst subject ever

Originally posted by KieranU2:^ Yes, I agree.
I just want it to be like David Bowie's approach. All of a sudden, he's releasing a new album and instantly we have a new song. I just want it to come out of nowhere.

then the problem is they're not reaching an agreement on what birthday make the announcement and the release of the first song
