Carnaval De Luz is U2's 16th studio album and their first full-length set of new songs in nine years, arriving on 180-gram vinyl in the band's 50th year together.
It caps a busy stretch for the Dublin four-piece. Two surprise six-track EPs, Days of Ash and Easter Lily, appeared earlier in 2026, drawn from the same creative period. The band frame this album as coming first in that sequence, following the church calendar from carnival through Lent to Easter, with spirituality and friendship among its central themes.
Jacknife Lee produced the record, which was made across many different locations, and Brian Eno returns as a co-writer and synth player on several tracks. Street of Dreams was the first single, while Silencio, with additional production from Ryan Tedder, was previewed at surprise shows around Dublin. The Mirror Maker (Rosalía) is a song about the Spanish artist, and The Edge reached for flat-wound strings for the first time on a U2 recording.
The album closes with Torn, a country-style duet with Dolly Parton, co-written with Johnny McDaid and featuring Daniel Lanois on pedal steel.
Five decades in, U2 still sound restless and willing to surprise, and this is a fascinating new chapter for anyone who has followed them from those early Dublin club nights.
