U2 has announced that their first album consisting of new songs in nine years, titled Carnaval de Luz, is scheduled to be released on November 13. The group recently released a new single named Silencio, and Bono described the upcoming album as anarchic.

Brian Eno co-wrote three songs on Carnaval de Luz, including the opening track titled Go (Carnaval de Luz), and also played synth. Other collaborators participated in the record as well, with Johnny McDaid, Martin Garrix, and Ryan Tedder contributing to the writing and the production of various songs across the album.

In addition to the album release, U2 issued two surprise EPs this year titled Days of Ash and Easter Lily. These EPs are conceptually connected to the album through the religious calendar. Altogether, the three projects released by the group feature a total of 24 new songs.
