Despite teasing their fans for several months, including a high-profile song that premiered during the Super Bowl, U2 will not release a new album or tour in 2014.

When you're a big enough band to warrant a Super Bowl commercial for your new single, it's pretty safe to say you've made it. But U2 frontman Bono still has the same hopes and fears as any multimillionaire musician after decades of rock stardom.

If you got a project you want the world to see, the Big Game seems to perfect jumping off point. U2 will take advantage of the massive audience to release a new song

U2 won a trophy for Best Original Song last night at the Golden Globe Awards, but it's unlikely that's what lead singer Bono will remember when he looks back on the evening years later.

If you want to make a big splash with your charity event, it helps to have friends in high places, and Sean Penn knows more than a few. Case in point: Penn's third-annual Help Haiti benefit, held in Beverly Hills on Jan. 11, lured none other than U2 to the stage for the first time in three years.

It's been almost 5 years since U2 released to their fans the 2009 album No Line on the Horizon. But now the Irish rock legends are poised to drop their 13th studio project due sometime in April.

Can't wait until Black Friday to snag a copy of U2's first new song in four years? Well, you're in luck: The group just released a gorgeous new lyric video for 'Ordinary Love,' which comes from the upcoming biopic 'Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom.'

It turns out U2's upcoming album won't be the only new thing about the band in 2014. For the first time in nearly 35 years, they'll also be operating under new management.

Details of the long-awaited new U2 album, including a tentative release date, are starting to take shape. According to Billboard, the group is apparently searching for a partner to announce the new project during a Super Bowl commercial early next year.

U2 will release their first new music since 2009's 'No Line on the Horizon' as part of Black Friday's Record Store Day on Nov. 29.

U2 have been taking their time putting together the follow-up to their most recent studio LP, but thanks to the upcoming film 'Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom,' fans starved for new music have been blessed with a long-awaited appetizer.

A hybrid project that boasted gutsy live reworkings of tracks from their smash album 'The Joshua Tree,' cover songs honoring Bob Dylan and the Beatles and nine new cuts, U2's 'Rattle and Hum' tried to be everything to everybody. It didn't quite get there.
