I don't listen to music much anymore. Almost never actually. Listening to terry pratchett audiobooks. And yes I'm wide awake (in Ireland) at 1:20am. U2 have great songs though. Just hope this new one has some really great songs. They're overdue.

They still have great songs in their last records. The last one i really enjoyed was How To Dismantle...but they still have some pretty good things in the other ones.

Do you also feel a storm of emotion when we agree on something?

Since everyone got so pissed off that U2 gave away their last album for free, I hope they charge double for this one to make everyone happy.

C'mon. You know that's not what people got mad about.

Good news. I liked the last album more than anything they'd done since Zooropa.

I really liked no line on the horizon. Brave record. Title track was awesome.

How do I delete their last album from my phone?

I keep forgetting to do this, but every time I accidentally open I tunes on my phone I'm reminded that this is still clogging up space.

there are only a handful of songs from their last two albums I like, but U2 has enough street cred from War through Atomic Bomb that I'll always check out a new album and hope for the best.

Whatever this sounds like, David Fricke will give it a 5-star review for Rolling Stone.

I haven't really liked much of their stuff since their ATYCLB and HTDAAB era. I'm not sure what it is about the last 2 albums that I didn't like, I think I found the production/sound irritating. It was way too mid range/punchy, they sucked all of the dynamics out of their sound.
