U2's Bono has called 'Seasons (Waiting on You)' by Future Islands a 'miracle'.
In a new interview with Rolling Stone, the Irish singer said: "Have you seen them? That song, 'Seasons'? A miracle, that is."
Fellow band member The Edge also discussed bands he admires, adding: "The band that I liked at Coachella was Cage the Elephant. Their commitment to the performance really blew so much of the other stuff away. They really did own it in a way that few other artists did. Broken Bells were great, and Skrillex's thing was pretty cool. Pixies were on, that was good to see them. And I love Outkast."
He went on to offer a perspective on some of the more out-there bands saying: "Some of the more strange hippie stuff wasn't that great. Neutral Milk Hotel, you know them? If you were sort of one of the faithful, you could sort of get excited about it. It didn't really have a universal appeal at all. And that might be its appeal."
Earlier this week, U2 also hinted the possibility of doing two types of show when they eventually tour Songs of Innocence, one acoustic and one electric, however no dates have been announced yet.
After forcing their new album onto Apple users' devices last month, U2 released Songs of Innocence physically on 13 October, the album is currently at no.13 in the UK album charts.
