A Beautiful Year

7.15.02 - Dotmusic

U2 will release a whole host of new material later this year, dotmusic can confirm.

Internet sources have been speculating about the much-anticipated new releases for some time, and now a source close to the band has told dotmusic that it is "looking very likely" that a single and 'best of' CD will be released this year.

The source was unable to confirm release dates for the new material, but it is believed that a single will hit shops in mid-October with a 'best of' CD following a few weeks later.

The forthcoming releases are as yet untitled, although it is thought that the best of compilation will carry on from previous anthology, 'Best of: 1980-1990' and be simply titled 'Best of: 1990- 2000'.

A DVD featuring all the band's greatest videos is also likely to be released in time for Christmas.

Earlier this year, there was speculation that the band would play some live shows in the summer. This later proved to be false and our source was able to confirm that the band will not be playing live again until next year.
