Is it bad that I've already tabbed out the guitar part for the "heavy" riff?

And also, the "four man chorus" is really really lovely.

After spending the past year basically being disappointed in U2 for what I felt was a "safe" song, "Window In The Skies", I am SO happy to be proven wrong by them! New material sounds great.

I'm fearing a 2nd Passenger album......

But I'm very excited about the changes, whatever they are!

The Edge has magic in his head and magic in his hands.
I thought I heard a little "opium den" kind of sound for a bit, didn't note the exact timing of the clip. This collaboration will give birth to some incredible stuff -I can't wait.

How true, what would U2 be without Mr. David Howell Evans...................................
Probably U-not!

How far along they are makes almost no difference to me because the release date will remain more than a year away.

I'm excited by WHATEVER comes out of this session. I'm against hurrying things. I'm quite happy to simply see and hear them jamming together.

The 4.03 sounds abit like miss sarajevo rythmwise...

Seems way more interesting than anything from Atomic Bomb so far. Still, I'm not getting my hopes up. IMO U2 will probably suffocate most of the innovation they've discovered by the ime of the actual release.

My favorite part was the bit around 4:40 with Bono singing and the others clapping.

I liked what I heard. It all sounds good and inspiring but not that amazing to me. That riff that is played has that hypnotic eastern like vibe to it that might make a good song, and I like the fact that it's slightly heavier than the usual ones. But overall (in this very raw format) it's not that great of a riff or of a sound really. It's not as good as The Fly or the I Will Follow riffs for example. It's as good as the Love And Peace riff, which is a great one, and one hell of a song but also one that they left behind at some point of the last tour.

I really hope that they have a chant-like chorus with that Moroccan vibe there but that one they were singing wasn't that good to me. It should be in the same level of quality of that eastern melody Bono used to hum to begin certain Zoo TV shows. If they get to write anything on that level of quality than it will be one hell of a record. And I think that should be the standard for them. Keep it as high as possible, comparing it to the great music they have done in the past. I know I may be asking for a lot but they have done it in the pass and I believe they can do it again.

They should bring that Zoo Tv chant back to life by the way and include it on the record. That chant could be one hell of a chorus. They never recorded it so why not use it.
