He's right actually.

EVERY U2 album is better than EVERY National album.
Except, you know....

You'd take October and HTDAAB over Alligator and Boxer? mmk
All of those configurations contain Rattle and Hum. That's not a great album.
Yes it is.
Right, and October and HTDAAB are part of which 4 U2 album run, again?

What he basically said was that some other bands 4 albums in a row were better than any 4 U2 albums in a row. Even if you hate R&H, fine, leave it out its not a true studio album anyways. Take any 4 groups of U2 albums from War to ATYCLB and the statement he made is absurd.

However, if you do cut it, you can make this happen:
TUF
Joshua Tree
Achtung Baby
Zooropa
Or maybe someone could think that something like Zooropa isn't a fucking gold standard.
It's not absurd in the slightest to claim that there are more consistent bands out there than U2.
Magical Mystery Tour

Replace it with the damn White Album then. The Beatles still win.
Take out the live stuff and leave just the studio cuts
Ahh - and now we get lyrics that actually ruin otherwise great songs. I absolutely love Miracle Drug. but the "scent of a newborn baby's head" lyric makes me cringe every time. Same with "see China right in front of you" in Beautiful Day and "a mole diggin' in a hole" in Elevation and "high rises on their backs" in All Because of You. Ever since Achtung Baby, my problem really has not been with the music - it's the lyrics that are dragging them down."...Eyes in a moon of blindness / A river in time of dryness / A harbour in the tempest...")
