Rock n' Roll Doggie ALL ACCESS
Yeah I think this thread will turn into...
...by the new year.

Also, he skirted the question when she asked if the chemistry/recording was magical. "Well, we'll have to see." Maybe 6 songs that might or might not be magical doesn't sound all that exciting.
interference has to be the most reactionary place on the internet.
if you expected any major details, you were fooling yourself.
if you somehow think this throwaway interview translates to no album in 2013, then i really don't know what to tell you.
still seems like they're right on par for a fall 2013 release.
I know an old german bombshelter from WW2 not far from where I grew up. When the album is out I will put my stereo inside this bombshelter, put the cd on and press play. Then I will leave the bombshelter, close the really thick Iron door and see if I can hear a damn thing.
Or I will just send an email to the Mythbusters with the question "Can you really listen to new U2 songs through very thick walls."
I'm pretty sure Bono is simply not allowed to talk about the new album. He said he was gagged some months ago
He, it should most certainly be added to the Bingo card! And yes someone should be outside those walls recording - I mean, a sound that goes through rock and cement could consist of pure divine spirit and power. The album most likely will be named "The Walls of Jericho" unless some Heavy Metal band from the early eighties already named an album by that title!
I can't remember the exact occasion but fans ( I think Spanish dudes from U2Valencia who are usually very well informed) met him in Dublin in fall and he said the band and Paul didn't allow him to talk about the new album.
Now we know Bono and it might have been a joke but who knows ...
I would wager a 20 that the interview will consist of the following:
Mostly talk about Africa and politics
How sessions for the next album are going brilliantly
No concrete information of ANY kind about the album
After hearing this interview people will get the impression that the album is not anywhere near finished due to a few vague comments about "seeing where the music takes us". As for that remark about the album title, it will be something said by Bono in jest.
Sorry to be pessimistic but hey, we've all seen this before, yes? However, i actually hope I'm wrong.
i wouldn't say she promised it, but yeah, obviously a gossip girl is going to be all about self promotion. she's not dumb.
"Band is working on the the album like it's 10 reasons to exist and we have 6."
Sounds like a hint at dance/club music
I was thinking it sounds like stripped down U2, less studio trickery and more guitars/bass/drums.
I'm also hoping it means Edge is getting inspired again, after the last two or three records.
So I was partly right, doesn't sound like there was much (if any) Africa or politics talk, which is good... What I don't get is, what was the deal with the whole album title thing? That's just straight out lying on her behalf.
I didn't hear the interview, but was she referring to this?
Bono reveals working title of new U2 album - Music, Entertainment - Independent.ie
re. NLOTH it still baffles me that they had Eno and Lanois as co-writers, i mean, really, why?! old man music it was!
So, in the end, no news, m i rite?
Yes, because U2 should make music for 15 year olds that are used to hearing the crap that's played on the radio today.
Glad to say that "old man music" U2 are making appeals to me more than today's charts. NLOTH is still one of my favourite albums, I listen to it a lot. Guess I'm getting old.
