No Line on the Horizon - New Release from U2

Ladies and Gentleman,

Mark your calendars; specifically, Monday, March 2nd. The following comes from the U2 website:

18.12.2008'

No Line on the Horizon'No Line On The Horizon, the new studio album from U2, will be released on Monday 2nd March 2009.

Written and recorded in various locations, No Line On The Horizon is the group’s 12th studio album and is their first release since the 9 million selling album How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb, released in late 2004.

Sessions for No Line On The Horizon began last year in Fez, Morocco, continued in the band’s own studio in Dublin, before moving to New York’s Platinum Sound Recording Studios, and finally being completed at Olympic Studios in London.

The album calls on the production talents of long-time collaborators Brian Eno and Danny Lanois, with additional production by Steve Lillywhite.


So it's time to let the boss know -- you're going to miss some time in 09! Time to start scouring the boards for tour dates ... fire up the browser, drag out the cooler, find those comfy shoes -- the boys are a comin' mama!
