U2 are a rock band from Dublin, Ireland. The band consists of Bono [vocals and guitar], The Edge [guitar, keyboards, and vocals], Adam Clayton [bass guitar] and Larry Mullen, Jr. [drums and percussion]. The band formed in 1976 when the members were teenagers with limited musical proficiency. By the mid-1980s, the band had become a top international act, noted for their anthemic sound, Bono's impassioned vocals, and The Edge's textural guitar playing. Their success as a live act was greater than their success at selling records until their 1987 album 'The Joshua Tree' elevated the band's stature "from heroes to superstars". U2 have sold more than 140 million albums worldwide and have won 22 Grammy Awards, more than any other band. In 2005, the band were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in their first year of eligibility. Rolling Stone magazine listed U2 at No.22 in its list of the 100 greatest artists of all time.
'No Line On The Horizon' is the twelfth studio album by Irish rock band U2. It was released on February 27th 2009 in Ireland, Netherlands, Germany and Australia, on March 2nd in the rest of Europe, and a day later in North America. The album is U2's first since 2004's 'How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb', the longest gap between studio albums in the band's career. The material was originally intended to be released as two EPs, titled Daylight and Darkness, but the band later decided to combine them into one album. The album includes the single 'Get On Your Boots'.
