Report: U2 gets street name after them in NYC…”U2 Way”…

Leave a comment

As the Irish rock band, U2, are performing on David Letterman all week long to promote their new album, “No Line on the Horizon”, the band gets their own street named after them. What is the street name? It is simply named, “U2 Way”. The new street, “U2 Way” is across from 53rd street near the Ed Sullivan Theater, and the street will only have the new name for one week. So where the streets have no name, finally has a name after all!

The Listening Room: Hear the new U2 album “No Line On the Horizon” at myspace!!!

Leave a comment

Due to an online leak of the new U2 album, they put the album up in myspace instead of forcing legal action. Just shows how really cool dudes the boys in U2 are. Axl Rose would force legal action on a leaked album, but not U2. You should thank Bono and the dudes for this!

Hear the new album here:

I’m listening to it now as I’m typing this and so far, I’m fuckin’ loving it! Old school u2 indeed!!! Bono and the guys has always been awesome songwriters.

Those who don’t like or those who think U2 sold out, don’t understand their music like I do. I’ve been listening to them for years, ever since I was a child. I have all their albums. They’re one of my favorite bands of all time.

The songs on, “No Line” album are enjoyable. I still like “All That You Can’t Leave Behind” better, but “No Line” is just as good as that one.

The Listening Room: Hear the new U2 single “Get On Your Boots”…

Leave a comment

U2 just released their first single off the new album “No Line on the Horizon”, the single is titled “Get on Your Boots”. The song is pretty rocking with pretty heavy distorted guitars by the Edge. The song does sound like old school U2 from the “Boy” and “October” days in my opinion. Yes, I am hearing some Led Zeppelin and the White Stripes influences in the new song.

Enjoy it here, I think the song rocks:

Confirmed: U2 announce they will release new album titled, “No Line On the Horizon” on March 2nd, 2009…

Leave a comment

The legendary Irish rockers, U2, has announced the band will release their 12th studio album titled, “No Line on the Horizon” on March 2nd, 2009. The album is produced by Brian Eno and Danny Lanois. It was recorded in various studios all over the world. Previously, Rick Rubin was the producer for the album, but the band fired him and ditched his recorded tracks due to creative differences.

The band didn’t give anymore details on the new album. No tracklisting, no insight on the sound and no description of the style of music of the new album. I’m sure the band will give us all that in the near future.

I hope this will be a good album, so I’ll be looking forward to listening to it. I didn’t like “How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb” at all. I did love the album released before that, “All That You Can’t Leave Behind” though. “Leave Behind” is a fuckin’ incredible album, one of the best new albums they’ve ever done. I hope “On the Horizon” album will fuckin’ rock and not be a mellow record.
