Silencio: the road to Carnaval de Luz, with Aaron from U2Songs

U2 was founded 50 years ago and to celebrate that special occasion, not only did the band release a new song but also announced their first big album since 2017: Carnaval de Luz. We talk all about what is next, including tour rumors, with Aaron from U2Songs.

The lead single to the later to be released new album is out, Street of Dreams. We'll also talk about the album, Easter Lily, tour rumors, Fireflies, rediscoveries from the past and much more while celebrating U2start's 20th anniversary.

Out of nowhere, U2 released Days of Ash, an album that needed to come out in response to the happenings in the world right now. The same goes for this podcast episode. It needed to come out in a response to the EP which features brand new U2 songs, which we all discuss in this episode.

So much has happened in the U2 world since our last episode. So we're back to take it all in and discuss everything that is happening. And of course, we also talk about future new music and share our thoughts on the Stories of Surrender Apple TV film.

In this special episode, we share our Chicago 2005 livestream afterthoughts and unbox the How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb 20th Anniversary box set. We take a moment to listen to the new tracks for the first time, and share our first impressions. We also talk a bit about what else is going on in the U2 world, debating how long it will take for a new album to be completed.
