Music Towers understands U2 have joined the growing roster at Mercury Records. If true it means a break from 20odd years from being with Universal label Island. Mercury accountants are now happy that they have The Killers, Razorlight & U2. Two generations of unit shifting cock rockers! Music Towers tried to call U2's management & PR to confirm this but no one was prepared to comment or call us back :~).

All that and there is a new single on the horizon, Rick Ruben is producing the new album so it is likely to be excellent.
