The video for U2’s new single

Tuesday, February 10th, 2009

“Get On Your Boots” has been directed by French film maker and artist Alex Courtes. Alex and former creative partner Martin Fougeral directed the Grammy winning video for “Vertigo”, and also directed the video for “City of Blinding Lights”.

The video was shot in London and features the band performing against complex graphic art designed by Courtes.

Speaking of the song and the video, The Edge has said, “It’s based around the idea that men have f**ked things up so badly, politically, economically and socially, that it’s really time we handed things over to women. The finished video is brilliant. He’s really nailed it.”

“Get On Your Boots” is the first single from U2’s 12th studio album No Line On The Horizon, out 2nd March 2009.

CAN’T WAIT FOR U2!!!

Saturday, December 20th, 2008

I am a big fan of U2 and now I have a release date!

The band’s No Line On The Horizon is scheduled to be released in North America on Tuesday, March 3rd, 2009.
This will be the group’s 12th album!

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Their last, How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb, was released way back in 2004 and sold over nine million copies.

How many will they sell this time around.
What’s even more great about this album is that the group recorded this album all over the world.

They began last year in Fez, Morocco, and then did some work in their studio in Ireland. After that they recorded some of the tracks in New York and finally some in London.

Let’s hope all the different locations helped inspire them.

We can’t wait to hear it!!!!
