U2 is trying something new, and something old, with its new album Songs of Surrender.
The album will reimagine 40 songs spanning U2’s career. The Edge offered more details in a handwritten note mailed out to fans:
“The fact is that most of our work was written and recorded when we were a bunch of very young men. Those songs mean something quite different to us now”.
A video trailer for the album was uploaded to YouTube on Tuesday, with a preview of the re-imagined version of “Beautiful Day”.
Songs of Surrender will be released on St. Patrick’s Day, March 17th.
