Rather it's this fall or early next year, I hope this is the thread where we get some info. I don't even care when it comes out anymore, I'd just like it if somebody within the band or the management team said something concrete. If it needs more work, SAY SO! If it's coming out soon, LET US KNOW!!!
God save this thread!!!

I think it's important to question whether or not someone called his church and asked about the album, or about the events that happened on here, before anyone goes casting blame on Steve.

Or even better, what if his church would have told the individual that they heard the album was going to be called "10 Reasons To Exist"

We're trying to drive U2 to release the album sooner.
Save Interference, Bono!
If the band members should ever come here and see these album threads, I'm afraid they might just give it all up.
10 Reasons to Stop Existing. The last ever U2 album.

Any truth to the rumor that Ben Affleck is the new U2 album?

What if Alan Cross did it?

That's not what I'm hearing, and it doesn't make much sense. Why announce a record in the middle of the shopping season, when no one will care, when everyone is concentrating on the holidays, and thinking about buying things that have, um, actually been released. Then to just repeat NLOTH w/another early year release?
Nah.

^ and a few tweets done he references a "conversation" with an "official source." I don't know who this guy is or what the so-called "source" could be, though. 
But yeah, a December announcement- when nobody is paying attention- doesn't make sense.

granted, I'm not taking the tweet as canon by any means, but your rationale is bizarre. people can't shop and pay attention to the news at the same time? in December, people are 100% honed in on purchasing goods and ignore the world around them?
what doomed** No Line wasn't a spring release. It was just the lack of a big single. Boots was not a good lead single. Magnificent wasn't even a good second single. Crazy Tonight was probably the best bet as commercial success, and by the time it was released, nobody cared.
you can release an album in March and have massive success if it has the songs to resonate. the Joshua Tree was released in March and that seemed to do ok, buoyed by two No. 1 singles in the US -- and the only two they've ever had go No. 1 in the US.
**I use doomed loosely because the album was still massively successful and most bands would be very happy with the sales numbers. But we all know U2 measure success somewhat differently.

From what I gather all the 2014 stuff leads back to U2Place's info from the 20th.

Where did the idea of a September release come from in the first place?

I think it was Larry. Blame him.
He mentioned releasing something in September a few months back.

I had a dream the other night that I scored an advance CD copy of the new U2 album. Details I remember:
*Black and white cover photo and black border (how original!) with "U2" in blue and album title in red
*And what was the album title? I have no idea, but it had the letter "a" in it at least twice as well as at least two "k"s. Akkava?
*12 tracks
*Second song was very poppy with a four-on-the-floor dance beat
*Third song had a U2 swear-word record with an s-word and two f-words in the first verse, with numerous uses of "hell" thereafter
*The advance CD copy I got had a misprint on one of the spines... one spine listed U2 and the album title but the other somehow had "Evanescence" printed on it. ?!?
Yeah, a totally strange dream but it was very detailed. And no, I'm not claiming to be a prophet. At the same time, the information above probably has at least as good a chance of being true as some of the other rumors being posted here.

I want all this to be true.
Before HTDAAB was released, I dreamed about Edge playing banjo, then he did on one of those HQ videos. So there you go.
