U2 have finished '70 per cent' of 'Songs Of Experience' album

During an interview with "Q", U2 bassist Adam Clayton talked about the band's 14th album set to be titled "Songs Of Experience" - the follow-up to "Songs Of Innocence".
"I think we've probably got 70 per cent of the material that we think will go onto it", Clayton explained. "The 30 per cent that we're missing I think we'll be able to generate relatively easily. But the amount of energy it will take to refine the perspective of those songs is hard to predict".

Jdging from Clayton's words, then, it's possible we won't be seeing "Songs Of Experience" in quite a long time; indeed he said, talking about the distribution of the next album: "Y'know what, depending on how long it takes to be completed, there may be a whole new delivery method invented by then... I think we just have to wait and see. There'll be a bit of water under the bridge before we get to that point. But yeah, I think it would be a bit predictable to do the same thing. And y'know, the law may have changed by then and we'll have to find some other way of doing it".
