Don't leave this CD behind

Review Score: (10/10)
This is a departure from their experimental sound of the 90's. Although, "Beautiful Day" and "Elevation" has a great taste of it but not as strong as before. The Edge returns to his guitar sound that became well known in the 80's. "All That You Can't Leave Behind" presents U2's fresh sound; calmer and more heartfelt, yet rocking. "Walk On" and "In a Little While" express this most. This is the best CD U2 has released in a long time. It proves that they continue to evolve as artists. Their many Grammy nominations and wins for 2000 and 2001 were well-deserved, including wins for Record of the Year two consecutive years, Song of the year, Best Rock Album, and others. Why did "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou" Sdtk. win Album of the Year over U2? Who knows.
