    Don't promo tours happen after an album is released? Could the album come out September 12th? An apple keynote is happening that day
    ATYCLB, HTDAAB and NLOTH all had promo dates before the album was released.

    That's EXACTLY what I was fearing and tried to express in my previous post. And that's what many of us think happened with Invisible>SOI. Does anyone remember Bono shouting "WE'RE BACK!" when performing Invisible at that NYC rooftop? They recorded and promo-ed a videoclip, they made it on to the Superbowl ads (!!!), they did the TV&radio rounds, and then just....... vanished. They created all the buzz and got all the engines running, and then just fucking disappeared for 7 months until they came up with SOI out of the blue. That's what I'm partly fearing with The Best Thing, Blackout or whatever they're releasing in the upcoming days: if they don't feel satisfied with the critics, and/or if the song fails to reach a certain "relevance" (God how I hate that word), they might as well cancel the Dec1st plans and just finish the TJT30 tour and just disappear for a couple of months more.

    Argh
    You're wrong Invisible and Ordinary love were purposely put out as stand alone song's one for charity and one for a film no 80s band's have top 10 hits anymore both songs did what they were supposed to they even won a Golden for OL ,after 360 tour they mentioned they wanted to put out a few song's not necessarily tied to any album only the media and some fans thought otherwise.SOI being delayed was down to the Apple fiasco also they had to plan a tour around it ,however SOE seems like it will be released Dec 1st alongside a massive tour the info out there is too strong to be another false flag.
  3. This.

    U2 will have like 3 songs out in the open before the album is released, so plenty to promote and to build the hype.
  4. I love to have a single before the album release, but I tend to play singles so many times that I can't listen to them anymore if an album comes out

    As long as they are actually physical cd-singles with lots of b-sides, that is fine by me!
