Has anyone considered the possibility of U2 going the Beyoncé route and doing a surprise release? The whole 4 month build-up to album release feels so archaic and redundant in this day and age. I think there's a power in having a collective consume music in a communal fashion.

Surprised to see this album so high up on people's lists! For me, 'Passengers' was the last great U2 (or project that involved U2), everything since has been sub-par. Of course, like every post-passenger album, NLOTH has its moments, but over all, it lacks that special U2 quality. I hate...

Is there any chance of a Japan leg in 2009? This is probably a ridiculous question but I am from Australia and it doesn't look as though U2 will be taking 360 here. I recently booked a holiday to Tokyo for November - I suddenly thought wouldn't it be cool if I could catch U2 there. But alas...

Comparing In Rainbows to No Line on the Horizon is like comparing Daddy Day Care to the Godfather. It's in a different stratosphere... Sorry, but it's scientific fact

well, the album has had the opposite effect on me. I can't actually listen to the whole thing without getting bored. I think many of you are working too hard to like it "once I left all expectations, baggage, what I deem cool or cool or uncool at the door I fell in love with this album!$!?&!"...

every breaking wave 1st single. Probably already posted but I couldn't fined: discuss

I know this is early and ridiculous speculation on an album that may never surface....but....Does anyone else feel that the next album maybe the 'experimental' brother to NLOTH. Like they decided NLOTH was day and this next record will be night? Just a thought, if they rush release it, not...

I thought it would be nice to have a review thread where we can all post our reviews with a star rating out of 5. This thread is only for reviews, please leave general thoughts & comments on another thread. Be as creative as you like! I'll post mine later..

the definitive ranking is: 1) Unknown Caller 2) No Line On the Horizon 3) Breathe 4) Moment Of Surrender 5) Magnificent 6) Cedars of Lebanon 7) Ill Go Crazy If I Dont Go Crazy Tonight 8) White As Snow 9) Fez-Being Born 10) Get On Your Boots 11) Stand Up Comedy Breathe & Moment Of Surrender...

Wow, I'm red with embarrasment. Didn't know that was possible on the Internet. Sorry everyone,

this is a thread about nloth, not politics. I just see a correlation at the moment.

Of course, I guess I just analyse U2 albums so much because I've always felt that each era of their career reflects the mood of the time. Greed of the 80's, pop culture and the emergence of irony in everything in the 90's etc etc

Barak Obama is all things to all men. He is left and he is right, he is Southern and he is Northern. His politics are full of inspiring rhetoric that can raise the roof off a town hall. The question is, is there room for Obama to shine through? will his direction be too ambiguous? Will it fall...

davisldaniel@gmail.com I know I know, I've heard it, but I'm not allowed to rip it or take it home until Feb 27th so please people, send me, thank you. You owe me for all my early reviews! kidding, but i would appreciate this favour.

I can't wait to read some of the reactions on here when this thing drops: There will be OMG! THEY'VE DONE IT AGIAN, I HAVE SO MUCH LOVE FOR THE GUYS RIGHT NOW, MOVE OVER HATERS, U2 ARE BACK!! This will be followed by R U SERIOUS? THIS ALBUM WAS HYPED UP SO MUCH, WHERE IS THE EXPERIMENTAL...
