War Child
First off, yes we haven't heard it all.
But this is a U2 board, we're supposed to speculate.
And we have heard a lot. Like, almost half.
I'm going to make a case for it to be the lesser of the the three masterpieces, but still on the top of the mountain with the big 2. (AB and JT)
1. Vertigo rocks
2. Intro to LAPOE super rocks
3. Live COBLights super mega rocks
4. AYGWF is a solid B-side, but was cast aside for things that were way better
5. Beach clips, while hard to make out, rock
6. Reviews (other than the german crack heads) rock
7. Live ABOY super rocks
8. Band seems VERY confident. They haven't been this confident since Zoo TV.
9. OOFS seems promising...
Now, why the lesser of the three? Well, I give points for reinvention, and they just aren't going there from what I can see. Still, if they do indeed get their best album since AB they will have done something no other band in their 40's has done–released a commerically relevant monster.
P.S. Not all Germans are crack heads. I love german beer, cars, people, etc. My family is from there, and I wouldn't be here typing this if not for Germany...
