What, like a turtle?
i don't think he's a liar, i just think he has a "source" that really isn't that high on the food chain.
Could be. Since his "source" never actually had any valuable information that turned out to be legit...

Amazon.com has removed "Original Recording Remastered" from ALL editions as well.
Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.ca still say remaster on some, but not all, editions.
I don't know what to think anymore and I don't really care. Basically right now there is no way of knowing until release day. I can't believe that they can't get their shit together and CONFIRM whether or not this is remastered.
Well, to be fair to RS, it's pretty dark way up there inside U2's collective ass, so it's hard to be aware of every detail around them.
I dunno, I still get the impression that U2 could put out an album of Bono's armpit farts, and RS would be all over it like white on rice.
Bomb is a great album.
Well, if by "great", you mean not their worst, I agree.
I enjoy every song on the album to a certain degree, and many of them a lot.
But it is a bit all over the place, and sounds more like a career retrospective than anything else. And Bono is right when he says the sum of the parts was greater than the whole.
What it has over its predecessor is energy. The songwriting, lyrical and musical, pretty much cancels out between the two albums. While Vertigo may not be a better composition than Beautiful Day, I liked it better as a statement of purpose than the "Hey, remember us and how pleasant we used to sound?" of BD.
And it's sad that the two songs left off the album, Mercy and Fast Cars (which I don't count since it's only a bonus track) are better than everything else that made it, with only COBL coming close.
However, I return to a comparison I made not too long ago: look at what the Stones were releasing 25 years after they started: Steel Wheels. The Bomb is a hell of a lot better and more relevant than that shit, so it could be worse.

Not every single U2 album can be AMAZING. I don't understand why people don't like bomb to me it's a great album some on their greatest or most known songs are on there. I take that back I really truly feel like its one of their best. I guess everyone is different but I feel that when I like a band every time I put on one of their albums I should think its amazing....but that's just me not everyone feels the same way.

It just so happens that some of their albums aren't as great as compared to others. To your average U2 fan, that translates to 'bad'. Yeah, Bomb is no Achtung Baby, we get it.
It is an awesome album for sure.Bomb is a great album.
