Oh, and I still agree with the person who originally said they are sitting on top of an atomic bomb.
They are sitting on top of an atomic.

Speaking of which... I don't like it. Anton Corbjin must have taken thousands of pictures of U2 over the years, and about 90% of them must be better than that one. Then there's that huge black border. What is it with that? The whole thing looks like it was put together in 5 minutes by a 14-year-old using photoshop for the first time. I realize that may be intentional, and it might make more sense when seen together with the remaining artwork in the booklet, but I can't honestly say I like it.
Not very likely to grab the attention of a casual shopper, either.

They are sitting on a flat surface for goodness sakes.
I don't like it, but I didn't particularly like ATYCLB's cover art. I don't think it's all that important anyways. As long as the music is good, the cover art could be just a plain white surface. OH wait, that has been done, and that was a pretty good album.

I think that picture was taken for the Vanity Fair article on u2. It appears on the first page of it (big pic) and is done by Corbijn, it's not going to be the album cover once its been in a magazine article.

What happen to the creativity?
Zooropa, The joshua Tree, ATYCLB...those are good looking album covers.
Axver said:This is by far the worst cover ever and I remain convinced it is NOT real. Edge looks like a perverted stoner.

If it's on Vanity Fair, there's no way it will be used for the album cover.
