Album getting delayed is called speculation.
Yes it is, captain. But it doesn't bode well for the album release.
Album getting delayed is called speculation.
So we see clear signs that things didn't go so well in the U2 camp. Maybe after so much time of work they still didn't find the new material good enough and then things didn't come smoothly since then.

There is something wrong with this album since the beginning. Some facts that ocurred that made feel very skeptical about this whole thing.
In 2006 Bono said that he wanted to release a new album, that he "owned" the other guys this... then they do some sessions with that Rubin producer. All that work was scrapped.
In 2007 they go to Marroco and finally start the album for real. From there to mid 2008 they are amost finished with the album. It's scheduled to be released in October and then it's delayed.
In 2009 they release the first single with almost no promotion. The video is delayed, then the single is delayed too.
It's Feb 5th and the album has got Zero promotion. The single virtually passed by the listeners and makes no impact at all. (I'm not discussing here music quality)
Their website continues to feature the same visual theme from 2004.
Still no promotion.

Bomb sold 840.000 copies in it's first week in the USA. It was huge. Partly thanx for Vertigo/Ipod sucsses and partly because of the huge hit that was Leave Behind.
I don't see they even coming close to that kind of impact. I'm not saying that album sales is vital, but U2's goal is to continue to be relevant. And that is not going so well for them right now.
the promotion of this single is very bad!
maybe it will be available in .....2010!
thanks for the fans who are waiting since 4 years

The panick and doom and gloom on this board is amazing. I have the impression people are waiting for negative stuff to happen so they have something to complain. There will be no album delay. Things like that happen all the time. We don't know what's going on behind the scenes. Stop panicking, please.
If I have to wait another 6 months to hear these damn songs I'm going to sell my car, condo, and most of my possessions and become a Coldplay tour roadie!
Take it easy!
The album will be out in less than 30 days.
Press have already heard it. And lots of. So no reason to cancell it.
