LP13 Discussion - Rock Bottom: Still No F#@&*ng News!

In this case, "sirenas" means indeed "sirens".

Interesting that they were sending this out on 5 July

Only a few days after the 'Song for Someone' beach clip.

 

[Reg McGowan]

I really wonder if this is the actual album title or the first Single ?

 

[prbiker15]

U2Valencia says 'Sirens' could be the name of the album, 'Siren' (without the s) could be the name of the first single.

I think they are just speculating on that part though.

Which is why I said 'could be'.

You know I can't read well with all this hype

IndScene (which had 28.5k twitter followers) posted a tweet on the news. Let hope this spread like wildfire.

You and me both. I'm trying not to get that excited. When 'Invisible' came around, I didn't get excited until that 20-second teaser came out a few days before.

 

[Reg McGowan]

So If album is out is September...we're most likely talking about the last week or the very end of the month...

If so, then we should expect the single early September...OR right before their gig at iTune festival in London IF they're scheduled to appear

 

[Reg McGowan]

All this mayhem until...a spokesperson for the band flatly DENIES album title or September release news

 

[Reg McGowan]

Lance Schart is dropping yet, another insider hint on twitter...

I still think September will be the first single.

The timing isn't that bad, then. I'm sure they want to be eligible for The GRAMMYs in 2015, that would be a nice way to continue the 'comeback'.

 

[Miro]

Hype increasing

but I'm not ready for a one-word album title just yet.

 

[Nick66]

I still think September will be the first single.

Well, they already have a song called October, so why not?

When do you think it will be out?

Precisely

Still some slots available on the iTunes Festival calendar...?

Yes, there hasn't been any other announcements since the day that the festival was announced.

September.

Stereogum and other media outlets are also picking up on the story.

Personally, I'm still not convinced Sirens should be a single title, considering that Pearl Jam have just released a single with the same name. Since I assume U2 are very well aware of that I tend to believe it will be the album title with - maybe - "Song for someone" as first single.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

U2Valencia says 'Sirens' could be the name of the album, 'Siren' (without the s) could be the name of the first single.

Confirmed Rumor: the new u2 album is comprised of 12 remixes of Siren, which its self samples Pearl Jam's Sirens.

 

[lemonfly]

Invisible Sirens in Manhattan

 

[Zimmy1987]

First single will be "Song for Siren."

 

[Registered Dude]

why would it ever matter that Pearl Jam also have a song called Sirens?

seriously..

 

[Zimmy1987]

They want this jam to be a real pearl. They're not invisible.

I think 'Sirens' is the name of the album. I don't think it would matter. Remember that Hunter Hayes kid with 'Invisible' a few months ago?

 

[prbiker15]

Oh hey, it's almost time for a new thread!

 

[digitize]

Given how long U2 have been working on this album, U2's Siren(s) may have been written before Pearl Jam's Sirens.

seriously..

Right. I like Pearl Jam and all, but it's not like that song exactly lit up the world.

 

[morgan1098]

I hope it's real this time.

My sources, who include Neil REDACTED and Jimmy REDACTED are telling me the record will be called "How to REDACTED REDACTED a REDACTED Siren REDACTED", and be released on REDACTED just in time for the REDACTED. The first single, which will be "high paced" will be titled REDACTED, and released on REDACTED. The single will be unique in U2 history because for the first time it will feature REDACTED on REDACTED and release exclusively on REDACTED. The promotional tour will kick off with an appearance on REDACTED followed by five straight nights on the Jimmy REDACTED Show. The tour, which will be called REDACTED will start on REDACTED in REDACTED before moving to REDACTED. All of this will be announced at the REDACTED on REDACTED. A special edition of the record will feature REDACTED on REDACTED and an exclusive collector's REDACTED. The album cover has been designed by REDACTED based on a concept by REDACTED.

Pre-orders begin on REDACTED.

Happy to finally be able to share some of this news with you. Information subject to change.
