U2 Releasing ‘Shadow’ Album Of Unreleased Songs From ‘Atomic Bomb’ Era

U2 will be celebrating the 20th anniversary of How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb with an album’s worth of unreleased songs from the studio sessions.

Billed as a ‘shadow album’, the 10-track collection will be titled How To Re-Assemble An Atomic Bomb.

Two of the songs, “Country Mile” and “Picture Of You (X+W)”, were released Thursday.

Edge writes: “Although at the time we left these songs to one side, with the benefit of hindsight we recognize that our initial instincts about them being contenders for the album were right, we were onto something.”

How To Re-Assemble An Atomic Bomb will be out Nov. 22nd, along with a 20th anniversary remaster of How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb that includes the bonus track “Fast Cars”.
