Nothing about the new U2 cd?
It's ok, U2 is way past their prime though. I dont like the album artwork, very boring, as a whole 2.5/5. PLease retire soon before you turn into the rolling stones. And by that I mean no new albums, you are allowed to do a greatest hits tour every 5 years until Bono turns 55. Thank you.

Also, its like Coldplay copied U2 and then U2 copied it back. Very bland.

Listening to it now. I like it so far, but nothing spectacular. Not like Atomic Bomb was either or anything.

I am a big U2 fan and even I think that it is just an okay album. Its good but they have done much better.

All I've heard is the single on the radio, and it hasn't made me want to listen to the rest of it. I'm sure I will at some point, but meh.

Very very uninspiring. |

It was over hyped I think. Not a horrible album, just not all it was cracked up to be. I may need a few more listens as I've only had 2...but like I said.

Only heard the single, which sucks balls. Not going to bother. Not liked an album since "All That You Can't Leave Behind"

The single is fucking awful. I'm not a big fan of U2 anyway, but I heard the Elbow cover of Running To Stand Still. Not a great cover, but reminds me that Bono can write a great fucking song when he puts his mind to it. Or he could in the 80s anyway.

For me, it's another Zooropa. Nothing that anyone will remember.
