U2 will release its 14th studio album on Dec. 1 (Interscope Records in the U.S. and via Universal Canada), titled Songs of Experience. On Wednesday (Nov. 1), the band announced more details surrounding the album, as well as plans to tour North America in 2018.

The Dublin icons released the album's artwork -- a young boy and girl stoically holding hands in black and white -- and the full track list.

Songs of Experience serves as a sequel to the band's 2014 album Songs of Innocence, and The Experience + Innocence Tour (stylized by U2 as eXPERIENCE + iNNOCENCE) also shares a name with its 2015 predecessor. The tour will start on May 2 in Tulsa, Okla.

According to a press release, "The lyrical approach of the album was greatly inspired by Irish poet, novelist and Trinity College, Dublin Professor Emeritus Brendan Kennelly’s advice to Bono to 'write as if you’re dead,' resulting in a collection of songs in the form of intimate letters to places and people close to the singer’s heart -- family, friends, fans, himself."

With a pre-order of the album, listeners will receive previously unreleased "Get Out of Your Own Way," which features an appearance from Kendrick Lamar, "You're The Best Thing About Me" (released Sept. 6) and the album version of "The Blackout." Those who pre-order the album's deluxe version are eligible for Kygo's remix of "You're The Best Thing About Me."

"Get Out of Your Own Way" is out now.

Tickets will go on sale Monday, Nov. 20 at 10 a.m. exclusively through Ticketmaster Verified Fan "in keeping with their commitment to ensure tickets get into the hands of fans, not scalpers."

U2.com fan club supporters, however, will receive first access to tickets (you can register here beginning today until Nov. 12) from Nov. 14 to Nov. 16. For more information, visit U2.com.
