U2 Announces Album Title and Release Date
Generally, Friday is the day where they release news they don’t want in the marketplace of ideas, but this certainly sets up the expectation game nicely: U2 announced it will release its 12th studio disc, titled No Line on the Horizon, on March 3 in the U.S. and Canada.
According to Billboard magazine, No Line on the Horizon features production work by all the right names in the U2 canon: Brian Eno, Daniel Lanois and Steve Lillywhite. As Pitchfork noted, will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas is not on the production list as previously speculated, which will be great source of relief for those fearing an incandescent, stadium-filling ballad version of “My Humps.”

Such great news and the perfect way to end my hectic week. I’ve seen U2 seven times, and hoping to add in a few more times before I’m “too old” to drag my bones to concerts. I’m a diehard fan of this band whose music has been the soundtrack of my life.
