Days of Ash EP

U2

A somber, politically charged collection of eulogies. Jagged guitars and hushed vocals replace stadium anthems with intimate, heavy-hearted protest.

February 18, 2026 · Island Records

A heavy, unvarnished sense of global mourning balanced by a desperate search for quiet peace.

Moments Worth Listening For
The sudden eruption of distorted, jagged guitar feedback halfway through American Obituary.
Bono's transition from a hushed, spoken-word delivery to a strained, emotional belt in the final minute of The Tears of Things.
The way the drums completely drop out during Wildpeace, leaving only a shimmering, ethereal guitar wash behind the spoken poem.
