They still have it..

Review Score: (8/10)
If you are looking for experimental U2 such as `Zooropa' and `Pop',then this album is not for you.
But if you are looking for clear, concise,good qualty songwritng in which there is a dearth of nowadays,then this album is for you.
It`s not my favorite U2 album(I`m more keen on their early period,particularly `War'),but I still enjoy it enough to listen to it repeatedly.
Highlights for me are `Vertigo',probaly one of the more hard rocking U2 songs in a while. `Sometimes you cant make it on your own',City of Blinding Lights, and `Man and a Woman' still prove U2 can make stirring,heartfelt, emotional music. How many bands can you say of that nowadays ?
