Is Pink the one fucking herself in her video? If so, then she’s already said everything there is to say, imho. ;-)

So, folks, it´s the new U2 album I am hearing right now… No Line On The Horizon! And it is NOT shitty and everything else but boring! It´s the most
dizzying album for years for me. A real grower… but still U2 - in a good way. At first hearing I thought “Hm…”, then “Oh!” and then “Wow!!!”

For those who hate U2: you will always find a reason…

PS: The album was leaked today by Universal Australia… what a pity! ;-)

I’d say it was better than Pop, yes. Thank God!
It’s not bad, although I do think there are moments when Edge wheels out the same old Edgeisms a little too much. And Bono’s voice isn’t always up to the job of doing the songs justice.
But still quite a good album, and not at all what I expected. It’s quite a dark, moody album, relatively speaking.

The worst thing about Pop, other than the bland material..was that the album was virtually all rock then all ballads. Should have been sequenced a LOT better.

I hope they kept their promise of a rock and roll album this time. “…atomic bomb ” was supposed to be..and it blatantly wasn’t !!

Breathe is very good indeed, it’s the one I keep repeating.

I have said on here a few times that I wish U2 would do something as good as Ground Beneath Her Feet, and I am not sure if there’s anything on there that is as good just yet but the atmosphere is definitely there and I think it has the potential over time to become something of a classic album.

tbh i’ve not heard it but Stay is a hell of a tune. And Radiohead blatantly stole it for high and Dry.

“Posh for pants” sounds like a really crap Victoria Beckham-backed charity campaign to get better undergarments into under developed countries.

So yeah, the new albumm: excellent i think. Feels totally unrushed, just settles into a mood and doesn’t try to force itself on you. Really impressed.

Now that i’ve had time to digest this album I think that No Line On The Horizon and Magnificent are two of the best songs theyve done.
