U2

All That You Can't Leave Behind

So much for experimenting eh?

Review Score: StarStarStarStarStarStarStarStarStarStar (2/10)
OK I'll admit that I'm not a U2 fan and never really was but as I used to work in a record shop we used to have to listen to this a fair bit. I found it to be very disappointing. There were lyrics at times at which Bono thought to himself " I write the greatest lyrics when I'm asleep in bed." Which they're not. Another thing that is so predictable about U2 and their albums is how earnest they are about it. It's so excessive that it becomes drenched in it and it can be a bit hard to take. The whole sound really sounds the same as if they just couldn't be really all that bothered about their albums anymore. And well that's it. When I heard it I thought " They should call it a day " because the band really sound tired. They put no effort in it at all. But yet RollingStone loves them and they continue to sell records. So personal opinion will always be inferior to the vast amount of records they continue to sell.

Incidentally, Bono ( the great man for warbling a whole load of nothing ) said that their new album is " getting closer to the album we always wanted to make." For all U2 fans out there I hope he doesn't mean it's going to be another bland outing because this album is fluff compared to their others.

Oh and a little reply to the guy who said the band are from England - they come from Dublin in Ireland - NOT ENGLAND ( well alright we'll make an exception with The Edge )
