U2 have begun work on the follow-up to All That You Can’t Leave Behind.

New tracks being worked on include one called Electrical Storm, according to
reports.

Frontman Bono says the band have “hit form” following their Elevation World
Tour of 2001.

Canadian website www.canoe.com/jam reports Bono told Irish music magazine
Hot Press: “The band is so tight, coming straight off the tour. We’ve hit
form.”

U2 are also thought to be working on the soundtrack for the upcoming Martin
Scorsese film Gangs Of New York, which stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Cameron Diaz
and Daniel Day-Lewis.

It tells the story of Irish and Italian immigrants in New York at the turn
of the century.
