    In the latest issue of Rolling Stone, Bono says that the next U2 album will be "club-sounding," which was reported by The Associated Press. Club sounding? What the hell does that mean? I guess we will have to read the article and wait till we actually hear the album. I am not sure I like the idea of a "club sounding" U2. But then again, maybe I will.

    Also, U2 are also prepping Songs Of Ascent, an album full of material from the "No Line On the Horizon" recording sessions. As if they were not busy enough, Bono and guitarist The Edge are scoring the upcoming Spider-Man musical.

    Which endeavor are you more interested in: the new "club sounding" U2 music or how Bono and The Edge score a comic book musical?
