Terribly boring and lame "rock" album

Review Score: (2/10)
First off, these musicians need to realize they are old. Not that age means you cannot make great music but to think you can get in touch with all generations because you wear a cowboy hat and glasses is stupid. Bono constantly wearing those glasses should be reason enough to hate this album. Boring album with so-so guitar playing and meaningless lyrics. PLease U2 fanboys don't talk about the depth of them and the fact that there are so many layers to these songs because they aren't. My favorite line is the title of the song " Love and Peace, or Else." This is a refreshing thought coming from pacifists. Or else. Without using violence, the only way they could possibly do any harm is by releasing another album. For a much better review check out maddox's page titled "the eleven worst songs of 2004"
