Negative Positive
Title: dud...
Review: the songs on this record follow one of 2 formulas: Bono talks his way thru a pompous lyric over a bed of synths and Edge's echoey guitar, Bono talks his way thru the first minute/2 minutes and then the chorus comes blasting at you. these songs have no melodies whatsoever. as a result, the songs are duuuulll. Peace On Earth and especially, Grace...are stupifying. Grace is deadly, deadly dull. Bono's lyrics are mostly just bad poetry. the exceptions are Elevation(which is great)and Wild Honey(which is eh). this cd is wildly overpraised.
Is the review positive or negative?
