New U2 Album leak due to sound leak

Update August 18th : As expected, videos are no longer available on Youtube.

It’s a leak of sorts for U2’s much anticipated new stuff. Someone wandering along a beach in France happened to stop outside Bono’s home from home and switched his trusty tape recorder to “on” and captured some muffled sounds.

The reality is that anonymous bitter musical rivals of U2 have been stalking Bono for months with a high powered directional microphone in the hopes of catching him off guard. Proof that patience, determination and psychosis pays off in the end.

Chances of the videos being left online with audio are fairly slim, so get in there quick and have a nosey.
