Yeah we know what this band is like with sticking to release dates.
The funny thing is that there never was or has been a release date.

My initial thought was The Cure's 1981 album.
Nicely done, mate.Let me tell you something brother... I know for a fact that Edge is out there challenging himself. He and all the other Hulkamaniacs are training hard, saying their prayers and eating their vitamins each and every day, brother.
You can sit there behind your computer screen, all safe and cozy with your Battlestar Galactica action figures, lobbying insult after inslut at my brothers in U2. But let me ask you this one thing...
WHAT'CHA GONNA DO, brother???? What'cha gonna do when the 24 inch pythons and Hulkamanoa runs wild... ON YOOOOOU???!??
Prediction: Album will have6-7songsproducers that Edge is unhappy with.
i'd be happy w an album that had 6-7 song edge is happy with
Coldplay is finally putting out something interesting with Ghost Stories
U2's new album will contain a certain number of songs. It will have cover art and a title.
bold prediction there mate. I'll take it one step further and predict that the tracks will be put in some kind of order, and they might even have names.
or they might just leak a random untagged collection of songs onto a torrent site... yea... I think that's what will happen. (Seriously though, what if they did that? And someone found it? WOULDN'T THAT BE AWESOME?)
The most intriguing thing to me is: if they got cold feet in February, and are planning a release this November, what kind of material did they come up with between February and now? That's about 5 months. How many "new" songs? Change in style? Re-recorded tunes already written?
In other words, what changed between February and now?
Take it for what it's worth.....
I have a friend of does advertising for Bank of America and was involved in the Super Bowl ad. He's been hearing developments as they go (the plan originally was to announce tour/album after the Fallon appearance but that's when U2 got cold feet) so I asked again yesterday. He said there's been some news:
The tentative plan is to release the album in October or November of this year. Around that same time, the band will do a short "We're back" tour. He said about 8 cities, likely a few shows per city (he didn't know if that was just domestic or international but did believe NYC was one of them). He then also believed it would be followed next year with a more substantial tour. As an aside: BOA has agreed to sponsor the short tour, unclear if they would do the larger one too.
Encouraging, I think. Also, as an even more random aside, I bumped into Adam Scott (from the hysterical U Talking U2 to Me podcast) at an event in New York last week. He knew nothing about release dates, but he said he was talking to someone in the music industry recently who says a) he had heard a few songs, which he called "epic" and thought they'd be hits and b) the band had considered released a surprise 4-song EP last month before deciding to scuttle it.
Hopeful! But who knows. We shall see.
Maybe Larry just got a new puppy.

Hell, just a photo series of Adam's hair can tell you that!
When I stopped by the ATM this morning, I decided I'd ask the local teller if she knew anything about the new album. A lovely lass by the name of Shaqueeta told me that the album will be out in November, and that now is a wonderful time to look into an IRA.
I saw the outlines of Bono and Larry's faces on my pancake this morning. If that doesn't confirm a November release, I don't know what would, frankly.
I stopped at the same ATM machine.

This infuriates me.
