Best U2 Album!

[Zoots]

Which one is at the top of the heap?

I'm including Passengers in the options even though it's not technically just U2.

It was really tough for me to decide between Achtung Baby and All that you can't leave behind... but in the end i went with AB... its stronger second half sealed the deal

After years of being a diehard JT proponent, I've finally switched over to the AB camp.

It's Even Better Than the Real Thing's fault.

 

[Zoots]

I voted for Achtung but Pop is

I'm waiting to see if whoever votes for Passengers (believe me, there will be somebody!) will be brave enough to post here and explain or not!

Really easy to answer. For the band the poll is as follows:

In 2000, Best U2 album was ATYCLB

In 2004, Best U2 album was HTDAAB

In 2007, Best U2 album will be the new one

AB is the bee'z knee's

Hands down....AB!!

This was a hard one for me. It was between AB and JT. I had to go with JT because that is the album I fell in love with U2 over. In God's Country is one of my favorite (under rated ) songs.. as well as Trip and Redhill...

not your favourite album . . . the best album. and that will always be The Joshua Tree.

Wow that's a GREAT point..

Its a shame boy doesnt even have a chance.

 

[U2girl]

JT. But it's not like we don't know which album will win.

 

[RavenBlue]

I went for War

 

[God Part III]

Zooropa, clearly. Not my favourite, but clearly the best.

Bring it on.

My favorite album is Unforgettable Fire. The most consistently good album is Bomb. The most successful album was Joshua Tree. The BEST album, however, is Achtung Baby. As Rolling Stone put it: "Achtung Baby is U2's first unqualified masterpiece."

Thanks for making the poll Zootlesque!

"The glass is cut, the bottle run dry
Our love runs cold in the caverns of the night
We're wounded by fear, injured in doubt
I can lose myself, you I can't live without"

Red Hill Mining Town

With lyrics like that, TJT beats AB by a nose.

No problem.

I think the best albums are either

Achtung Baby, The Joshua Tree, Zooropa, Pop, or The Unforgettable Fire.

I can't pick 1 in particular though

 

[BANZAI]

Surprisingly - with all the bashing of it on this forum - HTDAAB is heading for a 3rd position.

 

[ozeeko]

I don't listen to it the most, but The Joshua Tree is definitely their best album. That albums got its own familiar sound and location, quite like TUF.

 

[Salome]

Unforgettable Fire

for the scientific reason that it actually is their best record

 

[SpaceOddity]

It's not my personal favorite (that pick would go to AB or UF), but I think "The Joshua Tree" is probably their best album.

It depends really.

I think the Bomb has some of the best individual tracks compiled on one disc, but it's not a true great album to me atleast.

I voted for War, because The Refugee is awesome.

Wah HEYYY OH!

That's about everything I could ever say about U2's albums. Brilliant post
