U2 have unveiled the artwork for the physical release of their recent ‘Songs Of Innocence’ album.
The sleeve features an image of Larry Mullen Jr. and his 18-year-old son by Glen Luchford and is designed to ‘resonate’ with the covers of ‘Boy’ and ‘War’, which featured Peter Rowen, the brother of Bono’s childhood friend Guggi.
“We've always been about community in U2, about family and friends,” Bono said. “'Songs Of Innocence is the most intimate album we've ever made. With this record we were looking for the raw, naked and personal, to strip everything back.”
‘Songs Of Innocence’ was released in a tie-up with Apple earlier this month and is set to hit shelves on October 13.
