early U2 before they turned into douchebags
 

they were really great up to war. the joshua tree and everything after it sucks. (is there an album in between those? who cares)

i will follow is fucking awesome

yeah, great guitar lines

Agreed. I Will Follow is my fav U2 song, actually.

new years day has a bitchin bass line

what a rhythm section they had.

i like U3 better

might i add both the version of new years day and i will follow are so much better on 'under a blood red sky', they were awesome live


and sunday bloody sunday

all I gotta say. lol'd

lulz i didnt even know about that. how embarrassing.

just for the record, they've always been douchebags but they used to actually not be a shit band for a minute

U2 used to be my favourite band when i was a kid

i've just never heard a song of theirs that i've liked... cept that their bad stuff is fun because its terrible. kind of like metallica's st. anger

different strokes.

we all know how dave likes to be stroked.

indeed.

Hey, I was a fan of Eno, well slightly before U2--Bowie, Devo, THeads, etc. So I was very excited to hear the 'new' U2 and I still like 'em. Esp the new album--combines virtually all of their old tricks in a new and repackaged manner.

And I feel it is OK to like them because I got Grandfathered in since the first U2 album I bought was October. Loved the video for Gloria.

douchedom aside, boy, war, the unforgettable fire, and achtung baby are all fine albums in my book, albeit each having varying amounts of filler.

they lost it for me after Boy...a looooong time ago

The only U2 song I've ever liked. The lyrics are stupid, of course.

there's just so much stuff out there that is so much more interesting. u2 are almost as boring as coldplay.

boring is the worst thing a creative artist / musician can be

Edge has never grown on the guitar, 2 chords five albums.
