Pop is super overlooked, once you get past the first three tracks it's amazing



also Leave Behind above Boy/War offends me deeply

I just love it, it's special to me in a lot of ways. I grew up listening to it so it's just me lol. I can understand how that offends you haha

I grew up jamming Elevation and Beautiful Day too, actually they were some of the first songs I heard. Half of that album is still shite tho (Kite is a top jam)

Yes, Kite is probably my fave. Classic Bono writing there. New York and Walk On are up there too.

Walk On is probably the best that's not Kite but it's still as dull as all their post-90s stuff tbh. Best song they've written in the last two decades is The Ground Beneath Her Feet

Holy shit, I completely forgot about that tune. Yeah it's definitely up there. They still have their moments here and there. The highs are very high but too many lows. I really hope they have another excellent album left in them.

I doubt it but they got close with No Line imo, if they'd actually followed up the experimental parts of that album it would've been sick

Yeah I enjoy No Line once in a while. Achtung was the artist peak. Pretty genius if you ask me. Really reinvented themselves.

Achtung definitely one of the best public evolutions of any band, War/Boy still my favourite albums of theirs though

Zooropa has some underrated gold and some utter trash

album is an ahead of its time realization of arena rock reminiscent of post punk revival, large bands right now like kings of leon and the national (lack of namedropping abilities =p) would exist if this album didn't but since it did they take inspiration from it, which is interesting imo. impactful display of hyper commercialized, wide sounding, emotional lighter waving music

The production in this is excellent... album highlight for me is definitely "Bullet the Blue Sky"
