    Attention Edge Gearheads

    In the first pic Edge is playing a Gm, so its any one of the pre-choruses "We ate the food and drank the wine, everybody having a good time". In the second pic Edge appears to be playing the solo.

    Attention Edge Gearheads

    Actually, I believe it was the cream Les Paul that eventually auctioned off for Music Rising that was used in the Elevation Fly.

    Adam's Badass Bass Playing Appreciation Thread

    Having seen the shows in Phoenix and Pasadena, I'm blown away by Adam's bass playing in the new songs and the reworking of old songs. I liked what he did during Popmart, but lately he's been stepping it up to a degree I'm ashamed to say I didn't think he was capable of. Breathe (of course)...

    Post & Discuss North American Tour Mainstream Media Reviews

    There are some insanely bad reviews in the comment section of the LA Times article. Those people were not at the same show I was.

    Bono: 'U2 album was too challenging'

    NLOTH is their best work since JT, they've no need to worry. Its one of the best all around albums in the last few years, and I think they need to continue in that direction. I'm OK with experimental pieces with a few out-and-out catchy sell-out tunes. We've hit the wall with respect to...

    NLOTH – why the album is a real masterpiece!

    And I was educated by the LAUSD. Its a fuckin miracle I can even read. I must be a genius. Just wanted to add that this album sounds completely modern as well. It doesn't sound like 48 year olds trying too hard to appeal to a younger audience, even if that is what is intended. The synth...

    Brilliant. Thanks for taking the time to make the screenshot. That pretty much sums it up.

    COL's intro is straight from an Eno ambient track

    Nice catch. I thought it sounded familiar. Eno and Budd collaborations all kinda sound the same, but sound great nonetheless.

    The Eno and Lanois Appreciation Thread!

    Understood, that's a given. But imagine the greatness that would bestow our ears and eyes if this happened. Eno may be too old to rock out and Lanois may have another Scott Weiland record scheduled, but if this happened I would die a happy man.

    The Eno and Lanois Appreciation Thread!

    Eno and Lanois Need to Play on This Tour Really. This needs to happen. The DNA of Eno/Lanois is in these songs, and U2 needs to give up the notion that they are a 4-piece. They've been a 6 member studio group for a long time, and have been faking it with backing tracks for decades. Having...

    Is This The Best U2 Album Ever?!

    I respectfully disagree, because I know what you mean about Achtung. But, this album is better because this collection has a sophistication Achtung didn't have. The songwriting here is spectacular. The production is spectacular. Achtung, for me, had some real big duds. Zoo Station, EBTTRT...

    It warms my heart that while Bono needs a teleprompter on stage, he knows his Mac commands by heart.

    Force Quit and Move To Trash Appreciation Thread

    If it was a Windoze reference, the song would not have the U2 optimism.

    Magnificent is this albums epic track... but a couple of small changes wouldve

    Yeah, that fat bass synth kicks my ass. It sounds like a MSTRKRFT gig.

    The chant in Unknown Caller: "Force quit! Move to Trash!" Mac OS X commands. Hell yeah.

    Is This The Best U2 Album Ever?!

    After about 15 listens and 24 hours later, I still say their its best work ever. After years of Bono hyping up their next record as their best ever, it actually happened. I'm crying as I listen to this masterpiece. The only potential filler was Stand Up Comedy, but it really came through - I...
