Bono hints at new U2 album

Bono has revealed that U2's current '360 Tour' might inspire the band to record a new studio LP.

The band's current tour has re-energised U2's group dynamic, according to the singer.
"We did some really good shows, (but) they just keep getting better and better, though. We're getting harder and harder; tougher," he told MTV News. "More attitude, more punk rock and more emotional, in another way."
"This strange thing has happened as the tour's went on - we've been playing new songs. We may even have a new album by the end of the tour."
"The thing about the '360 Tour' is, the spectacle is not actually this spaceship that lands in the middle of the stadium... the spectacle is the crowd, and the ability of the crowd to see each other and involve each other.
"There's this kind of call and response that goes on with the band and the crowd, and this sort of strange electric shock that goes through the stands, like a big Mexican wave of music that just travels around this virtuous circle."
