Early U2 is great, but post-War they haven't done much that's kept me interested. |

They're a great band; you just need to take Bono with a grain of salt. |

If it's anything like Achtung Baby then NO. If they go back to their roots of making music and quit trying to save the world from global warming then I think this album might be good.

Lead Designer, Zeibek Boutique Pedals | | Join Date: Jul 2007 Location: Hüstın, TX | | IMO, some people just can not get British Rock in general.. If it is up to them, all rock bands should either sound like strangled cock (for clarification, the animal ) as in many many punkish alternative bands or as if they are having excretory problems as in seatle rock in general... Kidding about the examples; but serious about the appreciation of rather simplex though beautifully executed chord variations mixed with strong lyrics sang by a silky/velvety voice gentleman.
