Title: U2 fans... two different camps
Product review: After "ATYCLB" and now this new disc I'm convinced there are two different types of U2 fans. There are those who came to U2 from a punk/alternative/experimental camp... the people who still want to hear new bands today like Franz, Interpol, Secret Machines, etc. Then there are those U2 fans who got into them by hearing their songs on Top 40 and Classic Rock radio. People who are generally satisfied with anything spoon fed to them.I can see no other way how it's possible any U2 fan who got into them for their intensity, fire and creativity can honestly care about this music. I don't know what is more depressing, so many fans fawning over milked-over mediocrity or actually hearing the guys in the band talk so strongly of this work (truly, it is WORK listening as well). I never dreamed I'd see REM and U2 turn into today's Rolling Stones.
