Why are we even talking about Mercy???????? Again!!!
Please, let's wait for fresh new sounds, not redone left overs like mercy. Good song, a little boring, but not fresh.
Just like City of Blinding Lights. Epic sound, so so vocals, big intro, good melody. Could be an all time classic if wasn't for the fact that sound like a recycled version of U2. And thats is the big difference between ATYCLB and HTDAAB: the later had good songs, was stronger as a whole, the band even looked more self confident. But ATYCLB was fresh. BD, Stuck, IALW presented us with a new aproach to music by the band, even if some people didn't like.
Is curious when we start to dig; i remember feeling like this with POP. Besides having weak songs, the whole album sounded forced compared to AB or Zooropa.
I don't like Zooropa, i think it was U2 worst moment, but at least sounded fresh, like if the concept just floated trough their minds, unlike POP. Anyway i'm glad that the tecno era ended.
So please, Leave Behind Atomic Bomb and give us something new, fresh. Don't have to be a groundbreaking sound album. Just a collection of good songs, with some acoustic guitars, good drumming sound and a pulsing bass underneath everything, all of this from a inspired, light touch mature band.
You see, when we all saw south of france, HQ and parties with clooney and pitt i think it became clear that the deep incoformism, the again deep anger are gone... sure they mantain their beliefs, but in a totally different way.
So i know i can never expect the anger of WAR, or the transcendent, racous and emotional tone of JT, or the super inspired, romantic-melancolic nunaces of AB.
All we can wait from them since ATYCLB is just an album with some good songs. Or very good songs. Not a earthshaking classic that will become a landmark for the music of this era. They have done this on few occasions, but it was a long long time ago.
