Definately yes.
Nope. That said I don't think they released the best album of the 80's or 90's either.
This is my personal list...
1. U2 - Best of 1990-2000
2. Coldplay - Viva La Vida
3. U2 - NLOTH
4. Green Day - American Idiot
5. Evanescence - Fallen
6. Coldplay - X & Y
7. U2 - HTDAAB
8. Coldplay - A Rush Of Blood To The Head
9. Killers - Sam's Town
10. Red Hot Chili Peppers - By The Way
11. U2 - ATYCLB
12. Eminem - Eminem Show
13. Our Lady Peace - Gravity
Yes, I know the best of wasn't a full album but hell its what got me and a lot of younger people into U2 and contains one of the best songs U2 has ever wrote (Electrical Storm).
I haven't listened to Day & Age and Only By Night yet so thats why they aren't on the list at all.
Great list. I By The Way.
Like Steve Vai or the Moody Blues, none of those artists you listed count as real music, though.I'd be much quicker to say albums like Anathema's Judgement or Porcupine Tree's Stupid Dream are albums of the 1990s, and Orphaned Land's Mabool or Russian Circles' Station or Agalloch's The Mantle are albums of the 2000s.

Okay-- eeeemph-- here it goes-- this last album NLOTH-- 'tired'... Bono's lyrics dont speak to masses as they once did.. shush now! I know Shush now your saying! Shush now? Are you kidding me? what the heck is that?
The states are drowning in medicore hip hop..If anyone could save us it's U2.. please please Mag is great and so is MOS-- but UUUHG! I am bummed-- played in U2 tribute band and love them;they have invented a new sound and I LOVE them but ackk!! What happend? Maybe Rock is dead.. :< 3 years from now we will put this with the bottom half of the catalogue.. didnt Bono once say two bad albums and they are done? AYCLB was the last great peice of work.. What is going to happen to music/alt rock? maybe this is how the dead heads felts 15 years earlier?
Most people just say YES I LOVE IT-- because they are excited a new album is here-- with Eno and Lanois.. but how many NEW listeners will be turned on? Everyone says Best band in the World?! I agree; but that band should be able to capture new hearts and souls..
3/4 pistons are firing; but Bono what happened to SOUL and HEART!? Oh ell; atleast I have three songs I reply daily.. I have ven given it two weeks but..ahhhh well... 4more years I guess..
00's are AYCLB
I WANT this album to work-- the critics will love it; only 3 songs will survive (maybe) in their stadium shows..
Yep, ATYCLB ís probably the best album of the 00's
R.E.M. - Around the Sun
PJ Harvey - Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea
I respect your choices, but you may be the only person who liked Around The Sun!
Great choice!
(There's also about 100 supposedly great albums this decade I haven't heard yet because I haven't had time.)
The killers - day and age
uL
Is This It
NLOTH IS BY FAR THE BEST ALBUM OF THE 00's. IN FACT I THINK ITS THE BEST ALBUM U2 HAVE EVER DONE. I CANT STOP LISTENING TO IT. YES YES YES YES YES, IM GONNA GO CRAZY TONIGHT.
