^ thr problem with HTDAAB cover is manyfold:
1. band on cover
2. no theme, just photo of the band (JT at least had a theme)
3. black and white photo to give the impression they have tried
4. generic colouring border (red and black to fool emos into buying it)
5. EVERY ONE OF THEM LOOKS LIKE THEY HAVE ICE-CREAM SANDWICHES IN THEIR BACK POCKETS TO LURE CHILDREN TO THEIR GINGERBREAD HOUSES
6. Edge holding his genitalia
7. Bono's OBVIOUS photoshopped head
8. Larry doesnt look totally bored (obviously very fake)
9. it sucks
10. we waited for years for that
11. it didnt suit the music
12. it didnt suit the title

That's a fucking great post right there.
But mostly #9 does the trick.

OMG the album covers are hysterical 
I don't know why, but this made me laugh my head off
How would you know? and why would you care?

I Like the cover art of httdab, because, it's a very personal album, the ramones first album is very similar.

I'm hoping that he's just referencing something I said that was similar a few days ago.
His head does look awkwardly attached to the rest of his body in that pic though.
MooMoo!

I do find the cover will effect how I feel about the album to some extent.
I love the AB, Zooropa and Pop covers cos theyre...colourful.
HTDAAB's cover pic could have been taken in when they were waiting for a chinese takeaway or something. Theres nothing great about it.
I want my colour back.
"The colours children! Nng HEY!"

That's a really beautiful cover MrMac! Thanks for sharing.

Mr. Mac, if I ever start a rock band, can we use that as the cover of our first album? (Obviously, my band will need a different name than U2. And our album probably won't be called 'No Line On The Horizon.')

Ok first let me defend myself by saying I do graphic design.... obviously I like U2... and the nerd side all merge on this next subject.
For those who don't have the ability to create an album cover, what about the colors. Sometimes the colors alone picked can really set the mood. Below is a chart with all the albums colors. On some I ignored the photo as a color while others the photo is the color.
What color(s) combos would you think would fit the next album?

^ Very cool.
For some reason, I think white and blue would fit this album. Maybe because of the word "horizon", and white and blue representing water/sky. Plus, they haven't done those colors paired yet.

I was thinking blue myself.
Here is my color combo. I added a hint of green for accent

^That would be a very cool color combination.
Guessing from the seanadsky clip...
That would be cool art in the sleeve, but as a cover with that title, it's so literal it's cheesy.

Hey that's cool. And yeah they haven't done much with blue and green over the years have they

I don't know nothing about making covers, but what do you think about this?
I don't like it very much...I'll try something else tomorrow. Maybe too much green?

Very cool indeed.
And very interesting to see.
A lot of use of similar colors.
With the nineties standing out colorwise.
Especially Zooropa.
I'm hoping for something colorful for this album.
But have a feeling it most likely is going to be blue and white.
