U2 is set to release their first full-length album in nine years, titled Carnaval De Luz, on November 13. This 12-track album includes a collaboration with Dolly Parton on the song “Torn,” which is noted to be her last vocal performance. The album features the single “Silencio” and is produced by Jacknife Lee.
Guitarist The Edge described the album as a “messy, provocative, sacred collection of songs,” while lead singer Bono promised loud guitars and deep bass. This release coincides with the band’s 50th anniversary, during which they’ve also released two EPs. The album cover honors the Beatles’ Abbey Road, depicting the band walking along a beach.
