I downloaded NLOTH yesterday and have listened to it about 10 times already, it has a few good songs but in general I am really disappointed AGAIN. Every time the guys make a new album they always say it's like nothing else around, it's sounds new and fresh etc. Yeah, yeah (ooh, ooh)!
For the past 20 years they have been releasing second rate albums but perform awesome live sets. The albums get worse whilst the concerts get better. Why can't they just play in the studio with the freedom they have on stage? Oh yes, Lanois is not there to demasculinate them!!!
I'm convinced that Daniel Lanois has a lot to do with the fact that U2 lost their punk!!! Don't get me wrong Lanois is a genius in his own right but not suited to this punk band who used to have an axe to grind, Bono wants to be in Girls Aloud... that's a joke, give them Lanois so that U2 can put their balls back on!!!
Hey Wilmy....glad to have you here posting on the forums. But for the sake of tidiness here on the message boards, I'm going to close this new topic but put your thoughts in our "NLOTH General Discussion Topic."
I'm sure people will respond to your thoughts in the topic below:
