I just returned to this album today after a one-month break. Not only was I in awe of how soul-stirring, exhilerating, and epic it was to me when I first heard it on Feb. '09, but everytime I've listen to it since that moment I still feel those aforementioned sensations. I know I'm in the minority here but from the jarring assault of the title track to the last syllable uttered on 'Ceders of Lebanon', I don't find a bad note played or sung on 90% on NLOTH [I personaly never liked 'Crazy' or 'Stand Up Comedy' but I digress]. I know it may not be a perfect record but I'm very baffled by how much indifference/hatred it ended up getting by the press, the public, and to a lesser degree now, U2 themselves.
Does any other U2 fan share the above sentiment I have for what I feel is the most underrated recording done by any artist much less U2.
