Remember when U2 was all about finding the right spaces to record in that would enhance and refledt their sound. Does it annoy anyone else that U2 record now with no space in their production and sound like everything on the radio. Like if you listen to their first few albums and all the way up till Actung Baby you can hear the space in their music. If you watch The Making of the Unfrogetable Fire they talk about how they needed to find the right space that would reflect their music.
With Pop and especily the last two albums U2 have realy lost that space which created such great atmophere for their music. Now their recording is lowd, crisp and clean, there is no depth to the sound anymore. I dont know if they are just following new recording trends or have consiously chosen to record like this. But I miss the murky atmospher in their music that recording in somthing like a ball room gives as oposed to recording in a sound proof studio. I dont know if they have made the choice to move to a more studio polished sound or if its just another way of them jumbing onto current trends unfortunately while loosing some of the character their recordings once had or maybe it just fit the production of the last two albums.
Do u think U2 will return to form on the new album and utilize their recording space as an instrument on their new album as they one did before?
