U2 and Songs Of Ascent.

U2 announced that they plan to release a new album before the end of 2009.

The musicians said that the album would be an excellent complement to the record «No Line On The Horizon», which was published on March 2, 2009, but will be more soft and meditative, rather than the last release.
The next studio album of U2 is called «Songs Of Ascent», and the first single will be the track «Every Breaking Wav».

According to Bono, the album is deep and meditative, but not trivial. The mood of «Songs Of Ascent» is very much like the record of Miles Davis «Kind Or Blue».

The exact date of the album release has not yet been announced.
