Title: Their best effort since Actung Baby
Review: I'll be brief here. For those who have fallen off the U2 bandwagon(like myself)due to less than stellar releases like Pop and Zooropa, this CD should be a pleasant surprise for you. This effort belongs right up there with some of their best stuff like Joshua Tree(ok, ok, maybe I'm stretching here since very few rock albums ever released can rival JT), Achtung Baby or Unforgettable Fire. As for another reviewer saying "nothing made my feet tap", huh!!? If one wants to tap their feet, stick to the endless vacuous material one finds on the FM dial these days. Admittedly, this disc does not put one in an awestruck state with one or two listens. My initial reaction was, "Pretty good stuff, it's nice to see the boys have left, if only temporarily, their Zooropa/Pop mindset behind." Yet after repeated listenings, I came to the conclusion that ATYCLB is much more than "pretty good stuff", it is indeed great stuff.
Is the review positive or negative?
