I used to be pretty peeved about the new U2 album coming out later than "rumored" and the lies/ miscalculations said by people supposedly in the know (though mostly the fact that a whole album's worth of new material is gonna take 4 years for release). I mean, I check the news now again just to see that I don't pass over the future release date, but at this point with the waiting, the so-so material that they've released in "Electrical Storm" and "The Hands That Built America," I think my excitement/ interest has waned to the point of, "So what, about U2." Maybe I'm just trying to lower my expectations a lot. Who knows. The amount of time they take to record one album (probably 11-12 songs, with people even going so far as to say there are only 8 really good songs), comes off as disappointing. Like I felt, interested at one point. Then excitement. Then annoyance. Impatience. Peevish. Disgust, and now ennui.
Anybody feel the same?
I'm thinking about buying some Jon Spencer Blues Explosion CDs to pass the time.
