U2 New Sound

I recently watched a comedy sketch about U2 that outlined the very true fact that they have a very definite sound in almost all of their songs. It’s not a bad thing, it’s just who they are. Not knowing all their songs myself; I am still pretty confident I could identify a U2 tune.

But the guys are currently working on two albums worth of demos that take in dance, trance and African influences. The inspiration comes after spending time at a musical festival in Morocco where they marvelled at intricate vocal patterns. This new inspiration along with some amazing guitar riffs from the Edge mean that U2 are set to surprise us all with a totally new sound.

Excellent; U2 are extremely talented band. I look forward to hearing a new version of the old talent.
