It is expected that U2 will release their upcoming new album titled "Songs Of Experience" sometime later this year.
U2 frontman Bono had announced in an interview last year that the band will release their new album in 2016.
"We're going to get [Songs Of Experience] out next year," Bono told The Irish Times, reported NME. "Unusually for us, a lot of the songs are done already."
While Bono confirmed that the band will their release new album in 2016, he joked saying, "I'm the least reliable member of the band on this."
In an interview with with Q Magazine, U2 guitarist The Edge revealed that the recording process of the new album was comparable to working on their 1993 collection Zooropa.
"(Zooropa producer Brian Eno) would love to see us making albums a bit more like that," the Edge said, according to DIY Mag.
"Where we go, 'You know what? We're not going to second-guess any of this. Let's just go for it.' I think there's a quality you get when there's a certain momentum to the process."
In the same interview, Bono revealed that the bike accident he suffered in November 2014 helped him while working on the "Songs of Innocence" follow-up.
"The gift of it was that I had time to write while in the mentality that you get to at the end of an album," the front man said, according to Entertainment Weekly.
"There is a reason why all the great groups made their best albums while in and around touring, because the ideas have to come out of your head."
According to a report from Gig Wise, U2 might release their new album in the same manner as they released "Songs of Innocence" on iTunes.
"We haven't figured it out yet, but our intention would be to get it out sometime in the back end of next year," U2 guitarist The Edge told to The Belfast Telegraph.
"I would not rule out doing something similar with the next record."
