were the last 11 albums too contrived?

[thelaj]

I suggest this thread mix up its subforum variety a bit more. They keep playing "EYKIW" every day! What about the other forums? Why should this always open the main set?

Maybe throw in some experimental colours...

What I don't get is why Free Your Mind stays in the same spot. It's not very free! Maybe team it up with Peeling Off Those Dollar Bills just to keep things interesting.

Speaking of Peeling Off Those Dollar Bills, why do U2 keep charting? I mean, they've done it once, they don't need to do it again! Learn new ways to rank yourselves, U2! You're becoming such a redundant band.

this is just

11 albums and they still have the same line-up. thats lame!

what about that guy who plays drums, when, i ask is he going to change that hairstyle of his. soooo 50's. do something outrageous like shave it off or something.

 

[corianderstem]

Bono's been 4'7" since the day they started. When is that guy going to grow, for pete's sake? Get a new height, man. Short is so passe.

They try to keep this stuff out of the press...but did you know they have used the chords B, A, and D on every album! And sometimes they use the same chord more than once in a song! That just spells B.A.D.

Learn a new trick U2!

 

[tarquinsuperb]

I knew they'd blown it all the day I heard their demo. Until that moment they could have achieved anything but it's been all constant tripe not even mediocre apart from a barely above average cover they did.
Sing it with me people:
I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal........

They sing the wrong lyrics in their cover of Bad. They had originality back in 1984.

do not drink soda and read this thread at the same time...

it just came out of my nose...

I may have to buy a new keyboard....

 

[Hot Bono]

Best thread EVER!

 

[catlhere]

U2?

Sorry guys, I don't listen to crap.

 

[Axver]

Actually, this is the greatest thread ever: http://forum.interference.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=104896

Makes about the same points too. U2 always were lame. So much consistency! Same guys, always making music, always selling it, always playing live - DO SOMETHING NEW, U2!

 

[allbecauseofu2]

i stop listening to u2, i saw thier stuff at a music store. they sold out to the man. tired of them using guitars, wheres the banjos? and the triangle? and the tuba? and bono could play the kazoo instead of this "singing" stuff. didn't he do that before?

 

[thelaj]

Did you know, there were no actual instructions on how to dismantle an atomic bomb on that disc?

False Advertising!

 

[allbecauseofu2]

THE BAND STINKS!

 

[thelaj]

Yes, the product is faulty. It rattles and hums. Stinky!

 

[allbecauseofu2]

yeah and BOY do they suck too. too many vowels in the name.

this threads boring

Sheesh we get the picture already, U2 fans on here can be too critical of the band

Word: contrived
Function: adjective
Meaning: ARTIFICIAL, LABORED



The answer is no. The last 11 albums don't sound artificial. Only HTDAAB does... albeit in parts.


































what?

Wow dude...rewind a second...I think you are confusing this with a forum with rational debate? You need the REM board for that...This is the place for bashing and expressing personal opinion as fact!

WOOHOO!

jonnytakeawalk is so lame... she is so repetitive, literally walks all the time -- and THEN she decides to walk all over a perfectly good thread

Reason why U2 sucks #1526327: they release singles. Haven't they released enough? Why not doubles? Or triples? Do they have something against twins and triplets?

U2 are evil men who hate your children if you have more than one at a time.

 

[Earnie Shavers]

What if you have less than one at a time? Experimental, no? Instant respect from 1/2 to 3/4 of the band!

 

[Achtung_Bebe]

speaking of doubles and triples, U2, WTF was up with the mammoth golden arch?! Have you sold your soul to McDonalds?
