Nikola Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I think Lillywhite era is fantastic but like yourself I prefer my U2 with a bit of Eno. That said War contains some of the best ever U2 songs in my opinion. Sunday Bloody Sunday, New Year's Day, Drowning Man and "40". But for me like yourself definitely The Unfrogettable Fire>War Oh, oh I love October at first listen! :wacky: To me, the first trilogy goes: October>>War>Boy. It also proves that you shouldn't judge an album by it's cover. :nod: It's their ugliest cover and it's the last U2 album I listened but at the moment it's close to my top 5. I'll have to give the first two albums a couple more listens. And Achtung Baby grew on me a lot. It now challenges the first two 00s U2 albums for the #3 spot on my top list. P.S. Let's continue this discussion on the U2 thread. Reply if you want there. I'll see it. ;) I can add to this thread that I'm going to check out The Arcade Fire, but I have no desire whatsoever to get into Muse. They're unusually popular amongst Coldplayers. I am puzzled actually how many people have to like the same 5 bands here. They're like clones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prospector Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I love theire 90's phase, Achtung Baby is a masterpiece and Zooropa is amazing, Pop is different, I like it, many people don't. I think they don't have a bad album, some are a bit flat (No Line On The Horizon comes to mind) but overall they are an amazing band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrk Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Zooropa is very underrated :nod: And I never understood the hate that Pop recieved from fans/press Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
