ONE love, blood, life
U2 2004
U2's new album will be released before the end of the year, according to comments from their manager Paul McGuiness.
The band have been working on the long-awaited follow-up to 2000's "All That You Can't Leave Behind", for some months.
However, the record is finally said to be nearing completion, McGuiness recently commented, hinting that the album should be out by November.
The currently untitled record is believed to have been produced by Chris Thomas and Steve Lillywhite, with Universal Records big-shout Jimmy Lovine now said to be overseeing final recordings with the band in France.
Details have already emerged of numerous tracks, including "Full Metal Jacket" ? described by Bono as "the mother of all rock tunes" ? and there is also understood to be a track called "Tough" on the album, which is a tribute to Bono's father, who died in 2001.
A single is expected from the album in September, with the band said to be kicking-off a world tour in Miami in March 2005.
