I was merely wondering what the next U2 album may be like. Do you think they will continue to play it safe or will they start experimenting again? What are your views?

No songs on ATYCLB sound like Vertigo, Fast Cars, Mercy, or Love and Peace or Else. And to me AB, Zooropa, and Pop are 3 very different sounding albums.

finally someone else who thinks the trilogy theory is BS
Hoodlem said:The trilogy theory is not meant to imply that the albums in each trilogy sound the same. The trilogies simply separate the major changes in U2's career. War>TUF was a huge change for them. R&H>Achtung Baby was another huge change. Pop>ATYCLB was the third huge change of there career. Whether by coincidence or not, between each of these changes there are 3 studio albums. That's not to say that all of the albums within the trilogies sound the same because they don't. But they are not drastic, career altering changes like the ones mentioned before.
So it is only natural for people to expect one more album without any DRASTIC changes and then for U2 to go in a completely different direction after that. They, of course are under no obligation to do this. That is just the pattern they have set.
