The Edge speaks about the forthcoming 2009 album “No Line On The Horizon”:
It sounds like a U2 album but it doesn’t sound like anything we’ve done before and it doesn’t really sound like anything that’s happening at the moment.

Ace of Base tans in Dominican Republic while waiting for their new record deal? Well sort of. Santo Domingo is one of their forthcoming concert bookings, December 17. The filthy rich 90s Swedish pop stars are pretending to be busy at work. Here’s a quote from their website aceofbase.com complete with lovely grammar:
We’ve spend 24 months to get out of our old record contract structure and this was crucial for the come-back! This is now sorted and negotiations with new fresh and forward thinking record companies are now under progress. I find it very unrealistic that we won’t be able to deliver a single to you in the next 12 months….We are currently finalizing with whom we will produce the new album….
They go on to tell us that they’ve pulled the old “Greatest Hits” album to finish out their previous record deal.
