Nine Days To Go Until The Real Thing!
Incomplete versions of the new album turned up online at the weekend – thanks to the help of fans, many have now come down.

U2 fan sites have been a great help in identifying online pirates distributing dodgy versions of new recordings - keep up the good work!

The real thing - the first new U2 studio album in four years - is just nine days away and will be well worth the wait.

As well as a set of great new songs, there’s a special Double Album CD/DVD release which will include the documentary ‘U2 and 3 Songs’ interview footage with the band and performances of new songs from the studio in Dublin.

And there’s also a fantastic ‘Deluxe Limited Edition’ of ‘How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb” - with CD, DVD AND an amazing colour hardback book produced by the band. It features extracts from band members note books, original paintings, illustrations and photography along with quotes and statistics.

Roll on November 22nd!

Does this mean the tracks arn't finished or the album doesn't include fast cars?

They're the real thing. Radio 1 is playing a few tracks right now off of the official CD, and they sound exactly the same as the leak.
