U2 Cover Kraftwerk On New Single

U2’s first single off their as-yet-untitiled 11th album will feature a b-side by electro legends Kraftwerk, it has been on NME.com. A cover of the German group’s “Neon Lights” will be the b-side on the first single “Vertigo”, which is set to hit the radio airwaves on September 24. The Kraftwerk song was recorded at Hanover Keys studio in Dublin and produced by Steve Lillywhite. Other B-sides are new song “Are You Gonna Wait Forever?”, and a remix of “Vertigo” by Jack Knife Lee. The single will come out on two CDs and DVD single, featuring a video for the song.

In related news, the Edge’s stolen CD-R may have ended up on the interweb. Internet fan websites are currently trying to work out whether two songs, which have been named “Love And Peace Or Else” and “Miracle Drug”, are authentic or are they just “lost” Coldplay tracks. Doh!
