Bono told this in an interview with a Spanish Television.
U2DMfan said:Treason slide is just the effect for when Edge plays slide on whichever song. They probably just name them to distinguish them apart. He plays slide on Somtimes, MD and COBL off the top of my head.
Like it says Spiderman slide, I think we are defintely talking about COBL here.
Didin't I write that, as well? let's see...U2DMfan said:Edge89 no no, it's a guitar effects pedal, the Shark Soup is the sound on that pedal, which is the same as the band Shark Soup, a punk band.
U2DMfan said:"Love Is" could be Mercy
love is when I lie
love is the end of history etc. [/B]
Sleep Over Jack said:
"Treason" is the song U2 recorded with Dr Dre..

He previously mixed a song for Nine Inch Nails a few years back, and it sounded great.

Shark soup could be the same as stated in Neanderthal.
And what did I write there??
Neanderthal (let's assume it's what it says.) Could be a new song or a description of what that sound sounds like, such as "747" is the name of the sound created for the intro of Gone and MOFO.
See?
That's one theory, that Love is... could be an early name for Mercy, which became the track's title later, (see the book's tracklist.)
But the lyrics are
Love hears when I etc.
If you say Shark Soup is Vertigo then fine. I didn't say it wasn't, allright?
I was just writing down my thoughts here too see what you guys knew and thought about them.
They're not the lyrics from my version of Mercy....U2DMfan said:are these not lyrics in Mercy?
Love is the end of history
Love is when I lie
love is justice not charity
love is come again
etc.
Lancemc said:I think they should bring back Eno/Lanois.
Some of you say that a new producer would be needed to change up their sound a bit, but remember that every time Eno and Lanois produced an album, it marked a career changing event every time.
First you had the Lillywhite trilogy with basically the same style, then Eno/Lanois came in and totally revolutionized U2's sound with The Unforgettable Fire. Then again they took a new direction with The Joshua Tree which didn't change until they teamed up once more with Eno/Lanois to deliver Achtung Baby. Then their general 90's sound stayed around until 2000 when guess who? That's right Eno/Lanois came and helped U2 change once more. HTDAAB kept on with the tradition of ATYCLB with different producers.
So I say, if we want a new sound from U2 again, bring in Eno and Lanois. It WILL HAPPEN if they do.

Nothing against Eno/Lanois but I think they - and Lillywhite - had a role in the sound of the last two albums. I don't see them getting away with the "U2 sound" again, so - time for a new producer.

And I think the Spiderman song is City Of Blinding Lights. A song about New York, with a slide solo... That changed its title from Sky Hawk to Firefly... it could be.

You sure?
So Shark soup+Native son+Full Metal Jacket became Vertigo?
Seems like a lot of work...
U2girl said:I mean they will get a big backlash by the media and reviewers if the next album sounds like Bomb and (smaller parts of) ATYCLB.
Personally, I really liked the last two albums and I don't mind U2 sounding like U2, but you know, the critics may not.
the tourist said:
I'll listen to the critics once they make music as good as U2.
Yahweh said:Ive got a revelation for you people...U2 sounds like U2 on every album they have made from Boy to Bomb. U2 should just make the record that they want to make and not worry about what other people are saying, because really it is not relievent to the process of making a record. Whether it be critics or Interference people, everybody is going to want and expect something different, so I would just go in with a fresh approch and the ideal that they will make the best record they can make whatever the sound turns out to be it will still sound like U2, because after all it is U2.
