    They just need to strip it back. Imagine some of the craft of their 80's work matched with Danger Mouse's incredible production. Just need a little soul-searching soundwise.


    I agree. I think they should make the new record truly of just the four of them creating the music. They shouldn't play songs without additional production on this one. I think thats what makes the songs special. Just the four of them playing off of each other.

    I think at one point in time they were capable of this (pre-1990) but because they've gotten so used to having those extra elements, we wouldn't get something up to par with those efforts. We'd probably get something more along the lines of ATYCLB or HTAAB, which seem to be huge targets for many people around here. I think they've tried the "dream it back down again" approach over the past decade, ending with NLOTH which was that same principle but with a few over-produced songs (album version of Boots). How can you get more to the core than White As Snow? You really want an entire album with songs like that? No thanks. If I want folk music I'll listen to folk. If I want big ideas, atmospheric and anthemic rock, I'll listen to U2 thank you very much! One of the main reasons many of us love U2 are because they're so versatile in their craft. So many of their albums could be categorized under different genres. I'd rather see them try something new again than go back to basics, AGAIN. Those guys were born to "fuck up the mainstream", not join it by copying artists like Bon Iver or whatever.

    He was referring to the fact that he hadn't seen her around recently, as in on TV, magazines, news whatever.
