Didn't even get into this album until junior year of college, 1989. Glad I did. This and Achtung Baby are still their best ever.

Yeah, yeah: Overwrought, over produced, etc. Still holds up for me.

Overblown,overproduced and overwrought is just about right for this tat.



What you're saying is that it is of its time - which it is.
I gave it 8 because I really like it.
However, that is because I haven't heard it in over a year.
If I heard it more often I'd have it down as 4.

U2's best album, IMO (although War is on up there, as well).

Daniel Lanois (also credit to Eno) can elevate people to a whole nother level.

FACT

If you don't believe me, just check out Emmylou Harris Wrecking Ball album, sometime ...

A solid 11! Not so much for the music itself, but for the memories, places, and people that it conjures up.

I think this album is under-rated.....not U2's best album, but it really contains some outstanding songs. {#Biggrin}
