    This may be a vague observation at best, but I think War gets its acclaim and credit just because of the hits on it...(SBS, NYD, etc...) other than those two songs, it's one of their worst albums, IMO. And the bonus disc is crap.

    I think you'll be impressed with October.


    My thoughts precisely.

    I'll let you know.




    Thought so and:-

    Bloody hell.......
  2. I think War right now is my favorite U2 album. I've been spinning it hard the past few weeks and really getting into the songs. It's fun to put it on shuffle, it's a different experience. But its such a great record for them; I feel like War is their first "real" record. Boy was obviously the debut experience and everyone probably a little dizzy. Then October was the "oh we have to do another one don't we?" by the time War came about they were ready and I think really soaked up everything they had picked up along the way through touring and what not. A song that I've really gotten into is Red Light, which was not one I listened to a lot. There is a great spirit about War that's a bit elusive, but it's in the songs. Surrender is obviously a classic too, I think all the songs are great. Not a bad album for some young 23 year olds

    sorry if that was a ramble
  3. War is their best 80's album. Nuff said.
  4. So one week to go before our pockets are emtied again. DVD, deluxe and vinyl. Near 60 quid. Yay


  5. Probably the best way to have them emptied though.
  6. 'We hear the children crying!'...a few days left...
  7. I'm so disappointed! Soon after I bought my new Explorer I realized that UABRS is coming out in a week! Now I won't be able to get it the day it comes out Perhaps I can persuade my dad to not take ALL of my paycheck this week
