Bono leaks new U2 record by playing stereo too loud.

From the news of the weird pile, here's one I just had to share.

According to TorrentFreak.com:

Proving that if media can be seen, heard or touched it can be copied, songs from U2’s forthcoming album have been leaked online. Four tracks from the album, provisionally entitled ‘No Line On The Horizon’, have appeared on the Internet. The mechanism of the release is pretty comical - Bono blasted the tracks from a stereo in his villa in the South of France so loudly, that a passer-by recognized his voice and recorded them.
Apparently four songs have been put online already, including the title track, the first single from the album ‘Sexy Boots’, ‘Moment of Surrender’ and ‘For Your Love’.

So go out and get it if you want, but I'm not sure the quality would be worth listening to. Well, I haven't heard a U2 album worth listening to in almost 10 years, but that's just me.
