No Line on the Horizon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The album was originally planned for release in November 2008, but the band had written approximately 50-60 songs and wished to continue writing
"around 50-60 songs" have been recorded in the sessions
50-60 songs?
and what we'll be given? ... 11 tracks. That's simply an insult to the fanbase, really, having had enough material for at least a double album (and that's even making a "best of" from what they had).
And what if some tracks are just weaker of fairly FILLER, just as at least 3-4 numbers of ACTYLB and HTDAAB?.
and this is just bull$***
