This is much harder than I thought it would be. I actually found it easier to start from least favorites and work my way up.

FAVORITE

5. The Unforgettable Fire

LEAST FAVORITE

It was hard for me to knock Achtung Baby off it's perch. But I had to face the truth.... ATYCLB has just had a much greater impact on my life. The last 3 in that order were not difficult for me at all. What was hard was the 5-8 albums. I still may not have the order right.

4. All That You Can't Leave Behind
5. Rattle and Hum

Put in order of having the most impact on me
 
1. Achtung Baby
2. The Joshua Tree
3. All that you can't leave behind
4. Zooropa
5. The unforgettable fire
6. Pop
7. Boy
8. How to dismantle an atomic bomb
9. Rattle and hum
10. War
11. October

First three are life defining. Boy is shooting up rapidly. Never been able to really get into War or October.
 
I'm going to do a Top 9 because I've never heard Boy or October

1. ACHTUNG BABY(An Epic of a Masterpiece)

2. Joshua Tree(Masterpiece)
3. Pop(Masterpiece)
4. How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb(Masterpiece?)
5. All that You Can't Leave Behind
6. Zooropa
7 and 8. Unforgettable Fire and War(Tied)
9. Rattle and Hum

Few things: Achtung, Baby! is my absolute favorite album of all time so it kind of gets distance from the pack.

I believe Pop to be very underrated and I'm guessing that many have similar feelings on this site.

I could never really get into War, I guess it just didnt really age well.

The Unforgettable Fire is very artsy and has aged well, but there's a few duds on the album or maybe a lack of really good tracks.

HTDAAB, popular to contary belief, does not sound like the 80s U2. The sound is very much more mature and edgy(in terms of guitar sound). I really put it up there with their masterpieces.

I'll cut my ranting short here.

:wink:

But obviously for me, most of these are tied for the same place. I pretty much love all their albums equally, but TUF gets a little more love

I think that's actually the shortest time I've made one of these lists! I'm just sad that looking at the last five, it looks like i don't like them at all haha! :wink:

I do enjoy Rattle and Hum and Pop as much as the others, there really isn't a U2 album i don't like (fanboyish as it may sound) but there's definitely something lacking in the last two whereas my Top 6 are top of the heap of my favourite albums since I honestly think they're perfect start to finish! I'm rambling now BYE
