U2 - Songs Of Surrender (4LP, Limited Edition, Numbered, Stereo)

Description

Songs of Surrender is an album of re-recorded songs by the Irish rock band U2. Produced by guitarist the Edge, it was released on 17 March 2023 on Island Records and Interscope Records. Largely the effort of the Edge and lead vocalist Bono, the album comprises re-recorded and reinterpreted versions of 40 songs from the group's back catalog, many in stripped-down and acoustic arrangements. The album is a companion to Bono's memoir, Surrender: 40 Songs, One Story (2022), which was structured into 40 chapters titled after U2 songs. Rearranged versions of the songs were first included in the audiobook edition of the memoir and were performed by Bono during the book's promotional tour. Recording on Songs of Surrender began in 2021 and spanned a two-year period during lockdowns for the COVID-19 pandemic. The Edge and Bono worked on the album informally at the Edge's home and in France and at recording studios in London and Los Angeles. The band members collaborated with numerous producers and musicians during the sessions, including Bob Ezrin, Declan Gaffney, Stjepan Hauser, and Duncan Stewart.
