[mikal]

Ok, sorry for this email but it's related to the new album. This exclusive news
is by u2star!

We got many info on what they're going to do!


U2 moving to Spain for recording session?

Last week the italian promoter of The Twilight singer (they're playing in italy
in these days) and Afterhours. Mr Cesare Zappal?, was in Dublin to watch the
performance of his band (TS) and he had a business meeting with many people,
included u2's engineer Joe.
Obviously they spoke a little bit about the new u2's album, and tha's what Joe
said:

U2 are recording in Dublin at the moment (mixing many songs but not all),
they'll move in march in Spain for "totally new" recording session, location?
Barcellona or Siviglia! Then around easter they should move in Usa for the final
touch....

(the rest of the news is in the news page of the site or in the forum).

Could be true... and they also mention a first single around june/july... Maybe Sky Hawk??

But i fear a delay here... If they are not finished recording yet... Sounds great, though!

 

[U2girl]

Recording in Spain? Sounds interesting...

I guess Las Vegas or New York is referring to the final touch?

The news bit also says first single in June/July and the album in september. They're working hard and the album will be succesful. Joe also said he is not the only engineer, he will not follow them in Spain.

Maybe they'll go back to South Beach, they all seem to love it there.

 

[Chizip]

THEY ARE DONE RECORDING!!!!

or so ive been told

 

[iacrobat]

I hope they come to Barcelona, that would rule!

 

[georgie]

i think the news about the single for june is reliable...because the movie with Angelina Jolie (with Sky Hawk included) is fixed for june release...or am i wrong?

 

[MrBrau1]

Good God! If U2 have their first release from this new album be a single for a movie as well, well, that just blows.

Why would they do any recording of a new album in Las Vegas?

Why would they do any recording of a new album in Las Vegas?

so edge can do a cameo on CSI:


i'd think if they were gonna come to finish off the album in the states it would be New York, where most of them own property, Miami, which they obviously love and have recorded before, or LA... just because it's LA and that's where the record companies are. or perhaps utah, so they can hang with mofo

 

[DaveC]

For fuck's sake, just finish the damn album already.

PS: The SkyHawk thing is just a rumour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Zoocoustic]

THEY ARE DONE RECORDING!!!!

or so ive been told

Yes, but recording and mixing are two completely different things...

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

everything is just rumor... that album could come out tommorow, it could never come out... until we hear an official statement from the band, it's all just speculation

 

[victor_f]

I believe...

 

[Reggie Thee Dog]

I believe in A Celebration, I believe you'll set me free....

Chizip, enough already, you're point has been made. Some of us realize that the album is not done as we believed and hoped. You appear to be right and you were most likely right when you said that the album would be delayed until Aug/Sept. Thanks for shoving it down our throats every thread. I'm sure you'll say "just like you shoved it down my throat". You look to be right, OK?

 

[Axver]

I'm starting to think about giving up my hope in May ...

 

[U2girl]

Chizip, would it kill you to let it go already?

Just curious.

new album: December 2005.
