SOE 33: Bono to open the batting on new album, Larry to keep wicket

[SpaceBoy]

For anyone wondering, it is a phone streaming as the record plays, not direct audio. But, uh, holy crap.

 

[PowerSurge]

f//ck this...no response. this sucks

 

[koci]

nice edge solo. HEEEY NOW do you know my name.......great! small drum solo, very cool. definite change in second half of song, "free yourself to be yourself" lyric great end.

Holy crap in a good way?

 

[victor_f]

I guess when he ends the live stream you can rip from facebook... (like happened with u2's blackout stream)

 

[Harbinger]

On first listen, I'm not sold on LIAWHL, and The Lights of Home feels like an amazing sequel to Iris.

 

[AshTS]

I'm not a big Best Thing fan, but it fits right in on the album for a long play.

in a great way

so far— halfway through my second listen, i'd say there is something for everybody in blue crackdom to appreciate. think you guys are gonna like it. i'll try to have link up when it's over. never done this before, any suggestions on places to upload?

 

[PowerSurge]

this guy is gonna get f//cked when they find out, no?

 

[xenx]

So I haven’t listened, because I’m waiting until Friday when I get the record. But it seems like this is their best effort since ATYCLB?

 

[dabiggestu2fan]

Nice I’m in!! As now lol

 

[Numb1075]

Even the Kendrick lamar bits seem to fit in seamlessly !

yeaaaah!! The transition between GOOYOW and AS is very good!

 

[koci]

yes feel the same! if they had just dropped the album on us without any previews we would all love it more.

Since Pop?

 

[koci]

Dropbox

 

[Gilead12]

I'm getting a HTDAAB-level vibe. Less low lows than NLOTH and SOI, and the highs can hold their own with any of the highs since those of ATYCLB.

But that's a very very hasty first listen impression.

Summer of love new sound for U2... The melody in verse reminds me Crystall Ballrom. And chorus a Man and a Woman Interesting. Edge guitar riff is very catchy

 

[AshTS]

Oh... we... uh.... got a shout out

 

[SpaceBoy]

Summer of Love. Groovy.
