they have a 16-pages special of U2 on the december rolling stone magazine / germany. there is a great report / interview with a lot of background information on the recording process of the bomb. the review by birgit fuss is great , she gave out 4.5/5
the editors also did a U2-best songs poll:
01 One
02 WOWY
03 A Sort Of Homecoming
04 SIAMYCGOO
05 BAD
06 Gloria
07 Running To Stand Still
08 IWF
09 ACROBAT
10 WTSHNN
11 TTTYAATW
12 Love Is Blindness
13 STAY
14 WGRYWH
15 11 O' Clock Tick Tock
16 MOFO
17 A Day Without Me
18 Love Rescue Me
..and they've done a rating of all their albums:
Boy: 4/5
October: 3/5
War: 4.5/5
UABRS: 3/5
TUF: 4/5
TJT: 4.5/5
RAH: 3/5
AB: 5/5
Zooropa: 2/5
POP: 3.5/5
ATYCLB: 4.5/5
HTDAAB: 4.5/5
generally i think the album ratings are okay, except i think ZOOROPA is a bit underrated. for me its a 4/4, ATYCLAB imo is overrated for me its 3/5. and for the UNFORGETTABLE FIRE i would give a 4.5/5
