the last night on earth cover is fucking perfect!
i love achtung baby's montage thing. it's one of the things that always drew me to it when i first got the cassette way back when.
i love all the 90s covers. the cover for passengers is really neat. for their earlier stuff, i like the cover of a day without me. i also love the ab singles covers. put them all together and it's one big photo. that's pretty neat.
and yeah...the cover for the tuf single is appalling. especially since it's four separate photos, i'm not sure why they felt they had to use such shitty photos for adam and bono. i guess they lost a bet.
I agree with all of that other than Achtung. I'm definitely drawn to the Passengers cover.
I remember when I first saw the UF single cover, I didn't initially realise it was Bono and Adam. Dreadful photos. In terms of musical content, I think the UF single is possibly the best thing U2 have ever released in terms of consistent quality, but in terms of presentation, it could hardly be worse.
Wrong, wrong, wrong. The album cover, and it has to be vinyl, not CD, is awesome. Their best imo. Sums up everything they were about in 91.
I don't believe that the idea that U2 is a "dinosaur band" is the consensus. It was just that one guy's words. So who gives a shit?
Achtung's cover is terrible. With the exception of the UF single's cover, it was the worst in the band's history until HTDAAB came along.

I love the color scheme used for Pop, but the actual finished product is stale.
I think it's probably the worse album cover I own, and I fucking own Prince Lovesexy.
By finished product, do you mean the album or the cover itself?
Passengers isn't a U2 album though
Not this again.
All 4 members worked on it, hence it was a U2 project.
Pop is my 3rd fave U2 album.

i know what you mean. a lot of people do it, and it kind of gets on my nerves. it's not like you have to say "imo i like this best, and it's just my opinion..." or anything. i dunno. can't we all just get along?!I think it's the way you always state your opinion like it's writ in the ten commandments that gets to me. lol. But if you don't like it, you don't like it. Fair enough.
best single cover;
