This is the second U2 WEEK in a row on radio TANGRA MEGA ROCK

The band have released its fourteenth studio album Songs of Experience last Friday, 1 December. 

It was produced by Jacknife Lee and Ryan Tedder with Steve LillywhiteAndy Barlow, and Jolyon Thomas and is intended to be a companion piece to U2's previous record, Songs of Innocence (2014). 

Whereas its predecessor explored the group members' adolescence in Ireland in the 1970s, Songs of Experience thematically will be a collection of letters written by lead vocalist Bono to people and places closest to his heart. The personal nature of the lyrics reflects a "brush with mortality" that he had during the album's recording.

The photo on the album cover, taken by the band's long-time photographer Anton Corbijn, depicts Bono's son Eli and the Edge's daughter Sian holding hands.
