Bono at the Brit Awards

"Over those two albums, Songs of Innocence and Experience, our songwriting returned. Now we need to put the firepower of rock ’n’ roll back. I don’t know who is going to make our fuck-off rock ’n’ roll album. You almost want an AC/DC, you want Mutt Lange. The approach. The discipline. The songwriting discipline. That’s what we want." - Bono, October 2022
