No fuck me. I loved ‘80s U2 and still have a soft spot for it. I think my favorite is “The Unforgettable Fire” though. |

Really? I’m just kinda feeling Pixies-y again after ... huh... at least five years. Granted, I think they do feel a bit like a stepping stone on the way to headset fare, be it Sonic Youth or Big Black or whatever. But still... no denying the Pixies were for many years — until they started to eat shit — the Fab Four of underground-esque rock groups. Somewhere between Nirvana and Sonic Youth, the Pixies occupy a pretty special place |

Brilliant show. I LOVE Carrie Coon, and Theroux, that cat can act. Anyway, the musical highlight of the series for me was the use of Iris DeMent's "Let The Mystery Be" — a supreme, perennial classic.

Everyone talks about 80’s U2, but no one ever talks about 90’s U2. Why doesn’t anyone ever talk about U2POP

seems to me they were cannibalizing themselves. i mean i hear a lot of their previous albums here, but in lesser form. there were interesting sounds in them, but the songs as songs were not up to par for me. i didnt have a chance to take note of the songs i liked & disliked unfortunately... a little busy morning doing some procurement... but the latter part of the album, wnat would be the b side if it were a vinyl, i think sounded more interesting i can relisten & make notes later but now i wanna lissen to their older 90s stuff.... |

POP was the last U2 album I liked.
"Discotheque"--one my favs "Do you feel loved?"--One of those odd songs where the verses are much catchier than the chorus. "Mofo" -- It's about Bono's dead mother. Sorta makes it difficult to slam. --Squishy middle. Where the album gets it's title, I guess. Interesting production saves some weak writing.-- "Miami" -- Quite refreshing after the previous tracks. "Please" -- A good song, and I've heard some live versions that are transcendent. "Wake Up Dead Man" -- This seems like a classic. But maybe it's just a classic in the "Christian rock" subgenre. It was actually the subsequent album that lost me completely. All That You Can't Leave Behind. Wussy adult contemporary. I'll take a failed experiment over this shit any old day. And I didn't really fall for the "return to form" of How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb. Then I was done following the band. I've heard only two or three U2 songs made in the past decade. |

Bono is so douchey that I can't ever imagine myself giving U2 a fair shot
And if I did, I would do so in secrecy. It'd be like randomly becoming a big fan of Coldplay or something Too polished. Too pretty (I have no idea what U2 actually sounds like... don't they go "Hello, Hellloooo Hola Hola and I FEEEEEELL?) |

I like a few Zooropta tracks. Like “Numb.” And even that Batman one. And even Pop. But I don’t care for Auchtung, which is everyone’s favorite. |

U2 sounds like proto-Coldplay. Early U2 had a hint of post-punk to it, which is probably why I like it most. |
