Red Mosquito

Completely lifeless. They really spent years on this album and this is their lead single?

Weakest U2 single ever.

It's like there's reverb in here



Edge?

I liked that song, but I totally understand it turning someone off

I really didn't think they could do worse than Get On Your Boots but this new one makes it seem like Hey fucking Jude.

They postponed the release date of this record for 3 years to produce... that.

That's like a song my dad could compose in 7 or 8 minutes. NOTE: my dad doesn't ever listen to music and can't play instruments but he knows how to hum.

Not only is it dull as hell musically, the lyrics are dreadful.

Exactly. Baffling that this took years of different producers, versions, attempts, etc.

Seriously.

And I'm going to their concert tomorrow night. I'm soooo excited now.

it's still the joshua tree though right?

I don't even know anymore.

Shakespearean

U2 is playing two songs on Fallon tonight. This should be interesting.

The performance of Bullet the Blue Sky was pretty solid. Bono is in good form.


Too bad the new song SUCKS!
