You are an Anti-New Album-ite. It's people like you that are the reason young people don't like Bono anymore and make him feel irrelevant.
We just want to hear the oldies and hits brah.

Me too
I think it'll be listed as Lillywhite, Thomas and Barlow, not necessarily in that order. I'm told Tedder just sat in as a sort of consultant.
it's encouraging that there are fresh names in the mix.

Yeah the Tedder production lacks dynamics and "soul" to my ears. It may be an oxymoron to say it, but it just somehow sounds glossy and flat and the same time.To be honest I'm kind of relieved by that. I mean, I like the work he did with the band (the chorus to EBW, and I'm sure the catchier parts of Miracle were down to him), but I just think they can do better. I listened to the latest OneRepublic album, and none of the music was that special - it relied mainly on tried and tested formulas, some of which already sounded dated and overused, and it didn't even manage (imo) to do particularly well in that radio-friendly/safe box it defined for itself.
So, even if U2 do decide to go full-on commercial, i think they can do better.
I remember Barlow posting something on social media about working with U2 last summer, so he's been involved in the process for at least most of 2016, which is good news.
Lillywhite, Thomas and Barlow sounds like a much more potent mix
Wonder how it will compare to SoI, sound wise.
You're the kinda guy that wishes they did Elevation x2

Folks have given Lillywhite some flack around here, but the guy helps them finished records, so power to him!
Oh yeah. Bono iz the coolest.

I can't imagine anyone watching those awful 21P or Imagine Dragons performances and being impressed.
Color me impressed with twenty one pilots. They are just starting out and have tons of potential. Time will tell. Anyway I'd enjoy seeing them on tour with U2.
Their lyrics are pretty deep. Poppy derivative of Linkin Park/Eminem. They know how to write an anthem that gets an arena on their feet (Dare say a U2-gene splice in their Musical DNA)
The concert near me in January has been sold out for months.
That.... was..... the...... joke.........

It never fails.is it just me or the longer we wait in limbo, the more snarky we are getting?

Could you give me 2 or 3 songs of theirs to listen to? I've had a listen on youtube and been impressed enough by their talent but unimpressed by their songs...

Someone over at the @u2 forum alluded U2 have a Joshua Tree b-side called Beautiful Ghost - Introduction To Songs Of Experience...
Surely this implies TJT shows will segue into a live SOE release?
Yeah. It sounds like it's post 00-era Bono singing over a preexisting instrumental track.
My guess is they added the poem lyrics and vocal in 2004 to the track called Beautiful Ghost.
I just think it's tempting to think they might use this with the release of SOE somehow
