Further celebrating the anniversary of this seminal album, How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb has now been remastered for the first time, a process which saw the band go back to the vault to revisit those early '00s recording sessions, a period of intense creativity for U2 in the studio, as well as a time of deep personal and artistic reflection following the passing of Bono's father Bob in 2001. This special 20th anniversary edition – out 22nd November - will include the bonus track 'Fast Cars'. See below for a complete list of formats. 

 

How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb is U2's eleventh studio album. Released by Island Records / Interscope on 22nd November 2004, it went to No. 1 in 34 countries around the world, including Ireland, the UK and the US.  Described by Bono at the time as "our first rock album", How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb was recorded at the band's studio in Hanover Quay, Dublin and the South of France, and produced by Steve Lilywhite, with additional production from Chris Thomas, Flood, Jacknife Lee, Brian Eno, Daniel Lanois, Nellee Hooper and Carl Glanville.  The 11 tracks included the songs 'Vertigo' and 'Sometimes You Can't Make It on Your Own', both of which debuted at No. 1 in the UK charts, the first time a U2 album produced two chart topping singles. How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb and its singles won a total of eight Grammy Awards, sweeping all of the categories in which the band were nominated, with 'Vertigo' alone winning three in 2005, including Best Rock Song. The band were the night's big winners in 2006, taking home the Grammy for Album of the Year, as well as Song of the Year for 'Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own' and Best Rock Song for 'City of Blinding Lights', with Steve Lilywhite also winning Producer of the Year.
