Not sure if I'm happy with it or not...WITS is a nice song, but for a complete album?
But I'm glad this probably means that the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band-snippet in BD will stay!

Amazing. This is how news get made. It starts with a statement that compares the quality of the creative process on the latest album to the Beatles and ends with "an album sounding like WITS".

With regards to Will.I.Am producing on the album, perhaps it will be like Coldplays Lost+ with Jay-Z which wasn't bad ( I think Coldplay helped write his lyrics). At least Brian Eno has some experience with rap/hip hop anyway, perhaps its the connection.
From what we've heard so far I don't really feel that the album will be as 'fantastically innovative' as everyone is saying, the 'best U2 album ever' talk is worriesome, because it creates expectations that are going to be hard to live up to, U2 are not in their prime. I would prefer if they didn't talk up the album to this degree, and be pleasantly surprised by how good it is when it came out, rather than expecting to hear another AB and being dissappointed.

a lot of the talk around here doesn't make much sense, but hey
Originally posted by thefly07:I still think it's crazy to act like you know what you're talking about JUST from hearing the beach clips. fuck off. that's not the same as hearing them on the album....for all we know those songs may have changed a little or what. at best, it's crap quality, you can barely make anything out. they are enough to get (me at least) excited, but I don't tell myself or my friends "omg i just heard the new U2 record" no. give me a break and wait til the album is out to review it.
