Question.
I know people of course got overly excited when Vertigo leaked/was released. But what were was the response to HTDAAB as a whole on here? Were people so excited that they just praised and praised it without realizing how sucky it actually was, or did some people straightaway point out its flaws?
Liam and gump are on the ball here. Before HTDAAB's release, EYKIW was divided by ATYCLB vs Pop arguments. When it came out, for the first week or so, we thought the two camps were reunited, with only a few lone voices of dissent. But people progressively dropped off ... I of course was one of them. At one point, I placed HTDAAB as U2's second best album, below UF and above JT. Now I only rank ATYCLB as being worse than it.
