Still nothing........

2 weeks in a row and there has been absolutely no U2 news!
What's going on?!? Did something happen? I need emotional help! Maybe not that dramatic, but I'm getting pretty worried!!!!!!!

The album's been delayed until after the 2018 mid-terms to better reflect the mood of the U.S.

In the meantime I'm sure we'll have a few more Best Thing remixes to tide us over.

Haha, welcome to what most of us have been dealing with for 20-30 years!
Listen as Hope and Peace try to rhyme,
Listen over marching bands playing out their time.

Two weeks? Geez, try 5 years between NLOTH and SoI. @U2 members were eating each other.
The Edge: “[Eno] would love to see us making albums a bit more like [Zooropa]. Where we go, ‘You know what? We’re not going to second-guess any of this. Let’s just go for it.’”

U2 Fans: We'd all love to see that, Edge.

If we go back to the release of SOI i think it is fair to say there has not been many periods of time in u2 history  (for a long time) where the band have been as active as they have been in this period for such a concerted time.

In 3 years we have had an album...2 tours and new music related to another album.

Well there was the glory of Spiderman turn off the dark. I briefly inhabited the soul of the green goblin, but I found him too sincere......so I took my $65,000,000 and held it for better times

yea but this time it's SO different....

TLTTGYA has been played live since May

the first week of Sept we got the double whammy of YTBTAM and Blackout....

were on the cusp over Nov. and still no official announcement about anything.

THIS is unprecedented even for modern era feet-dragging-U2

Nothing can match the excitement I felt in 2014 when I got home from school and saw the new album. Nothing can match the disappointment from when I listened to it either   ;D

The guys just finished the tour last week (finally), I would guess that they’re taking a break before they gear up for promoting the new album in December. That’s probably why they went ahead and filmed the video for the next single already.

I wouldn’t expect much news for the next week, but perhaps in mid November there will be more activity.
