U2 Film First Video For Next Album

by Paul Cashmere - December 13 2008

 

 

U2 spent Thursday in London shooting a video for the first single from the next album `No Line On The Horizon`.

 

 

The video was shot by director Alex Courtes, who last worked with the band on the video for ‘City Of Blinding Lights’ in 2006.

 

Courtes also made the video for ‘Vertigo’ for U2 as well as ‘Giving You Up’ for Kylie Minogue, ‘Woman’ for Wolfmother, ‘Let It Die’ for Foo Fighters, ‘The Fallen’ for Franz Ferdinand and ‘Seven Nation Army’ for White Stripes.

 

‘No Line On The Horizon’ was due in November but bumped to 2009 at the last moment as U2 decided to keep recording.

 

A date has not been scheduled for the album but having the first video now under their belt means it will be early next year.

 

The title of the song filmed on Thursday is being kept underwraps.

 

:naughty:

In London, Shooting A Video

 

Larry, Edge, Bono and Adam were holed up in a warehouse on the outskirts of London yesterday, shooting a video with director Alex Courtes.

 

Performing a brand new song, the band worked on the shoot from late morning till late night, the elegantly mustachioed Courtes directing proceedings on the green stage.

 

We are sworn to secrecy on the finer details of the shoot... but there may have been some marching girls involved. With their boots on.

 

Courtes last worked with the band - with Martin Fougerol - on the video for City of Blinding Lights in 2005. And their work on 'Vertigo' won them the Grammy for 'Best Short Form Video'. That was the first single release from 'How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb'...

 

I really want to at least know the title and the genre of music. Hopefully we get to hear it before the new year.
