U2 Speak About Plans To Release Spider-Man Album

U2 have hinted that they may feature on the album for the musical adaptation of Spider-Man.

Singer Bono and guitarist The Edge have recorded lyrics and music for the production, which is due to open next February on Broadway.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, The Edge said an album would definitely accompany the musical, but admitted it was unclear as to whether U2 would feature on it.

“It's hard to say [about a U2 Spider-Man album],” he said.

“There will be a Spider-Man album, but whether it's us or the cast, that's the sort of thing we're not sure about. There are some amazing tunes.”

Bono said that if the group were to make another rock record, “I want to do Spider-Man.”

But he admitted: “I just haven't talked Adam [Clayton, bassist] and Larry [Mullen, drummer] into that.”

Meanwhile, U2 also revealed that they still planned to release 'Songs of Ascent', which will be the follow-up to 2009's 'No Line On The Horizon'.
