While the band's charismatic frontman, Bono, has claimed that "Invisible" is not the first single from U2′s upcoming 13th studio album (tentatively scheduled for a summer release), the song has received all of the trappings of a single, like this splashy black and white performance video.

"We have another song we're excited about to kick off the album," Bono explained recently. "("Invisible") is just sort of a sneak preview — to remind people we exist," adding that "it's the first one we finished" and that the group will continue working on the full-length "for a couple of months."
