The contents is more important.
zoopop said:I really like the title. It sounds like a political album and it clearly states, to me at least, U2's music can overcome these crappy times were in (War, Terisom and such). U2 did step up to plate with a BALLZ title. Good job guys.

starsgoblue said:If the tour is called: Atomic Tour that'd kick some ass. I like the title, I can see the Biblical reference in it, it's a takeoff of Ecclesiates 'beating swords for ploughshares'. The goal is still soul! I think the theme of how to dismantle an object of destruction is love!
Love it!

Forgive me for being an asshole, but why does it have to have some form of biblical significance? It frustrates me so much when people automatically try to attach biblical references to stuff simply because it's U2.
Maybe they named it HTDAAB because it's a full on, in your face kind of title with relevance to the current times in which we live.
Grrrrrrr...

couldn't say better.
it's not a title that we should expected from a band that's been around for 25 years and have conquered the world a lot of times.
There's an idea behind this title. It suggests that it's not a protest album but an album with... suggestions. Yep, suggestions to dismantle the atomic bombs that we see everyday (aids, terror, war and so on). And if the suggestion is love, i don't see anything wrong in that.
They wouldn't need such a risked title. Looks they're not playing safe. It's all or nothing. Love it, love them.
Hail to HTDAAB
