"This happened last Monday, but I have just found it out in u2valencia, it is the same guy who made Bono an interview for Vertigo Radio we saw a few weeks ago, I think you may like the story, I find it fascinating, so I'm translating part of his post:
....about 45 minutes after my arrival at Hanover Quay, Bono opens the door and waves to me, I get to the door and start chatting with him.
I congrat him for his birthday, talk about what I'm doing in Dublin, how long I have been here and that in a few weeks I go back definetely to Spain, etc... (he keeps remembering me as the Spanish bullfighter, hahahaaa) eventually he asks me if I have ever visited the studio interior....I want to die..., of course I said no and he invites me to come in....10 glorious minutes inside, he shows me the room they use to rehearsal and then he takes me to the recording and mixing room where Steve Lillywhite is and seconds later Lanois makes his appearance. Steve asks Bono if he wants to listen to anything, he nods, I can't believe it.
Bono tells me that what is going to sound is PSYCHEDELIC POP.... the song starts....I have to say it's something new, different from HTDAAB, it has a very hard rock sound and a very strong bass line, just at the end Morrocan influences can be felt.... the song is quite long, but awesome (I didn't ask the title).
Steve is crazy with a strange dance during the song , Bono, by his side, is also enjoying, dancing timidly and listening very carefully (both Steve and Bono kept looking at me and my reaction, but I was icefrozen, in coma, dreaming, trying to realise where I was and who I was with...)
While in the middle of the song Adam appears with a coffee in his hand, he says hello and stands by me.
When the song ends Bono asks me how I like it, everybody looking at me, I say: "strong! fresh! amazing! I have no words!", they all laugh..."

True, but it's the most likely situation if I were ever invited into HQ to listen to yet-unreleased U2 music with Bono and Adam standing by my side. I'd skip right over fainting and just burst into flames.

Ahahaha, I can imagine the scene - "OH MY FUCKING GOD!" *falls over* *explodes*
*Bono and Adam look at one another, sigh, and drink more coffee*

Something like that

I think the term "psychedelic pop" is going to mean a cross between HTDAAB and AB. The fan said the music was "different" from HTDAAB, but if it's hard-rocking, I'm guessing it's going to more along the lines of LAPOE and Vertgio, mixed with a Mysterious Ways vibe.
Which, I think, is what we've all been speculating all along.

Psychedelic pop makes me think of Jimi Hendrixx, Bob Marley, The Mighty Boosh and Picasso in a blender lol.
