U2 pulled a fast one on us by going Beyonce on the world with the sudden release of their latest album, Songs Of Innocence. The album was announced and downloadable during the presentation of Apple’s new iPhone 6 and Watch. It will be available for free exclusively via Apple until October 13; track list after the jump.

“We wanted to make a very personal album. Let’s try to figure out why we wanted to be in a band, the relationships around the band, our friendships, our lovers, our family. The whole album is first journeys — first journeys geographically, spiritually, sexually. And that’s hard. But we went there.”
