Rock band U2 is expected to release their next album this November.

The four—piece band, made up of lead singer Bono, guitarist The Edge, bassist Adam Clayton and drummer Larry Mullen Jr., is said to be planning to release their currently unnamed 13th studio album, reported Contactmusic .

“The U2 comeback is very much on for this year. This album has been a real struggle for them to make. It’s taken a long time and Bono didn’t find it easy. But they feel very confident now and are convinced the wait has been worth it,” a source said.

The album is the first to be released by the group in five years and will follow—up their 2009 work ‘No Line on the Horizon’.
