    They are playing the entire album, next up, No Line On The Horizon 2. [they did the same a few days before release with HTDAAB. [/quote]

    They played the whole thing on WBRU the other night (for any of you locals).


  2. Wish they do that here in the States.
  3. !!!

    The album we all have is not NLOTH. As of 3 weeks ago the only sure thing were the track selections. As of 4 days ago what versions ( there are alot ) goto print was TBA. What U2 did last week was a smart, coordinated maneuver to circumvent privacy in this modern age, as well as work in a few days of media review and hardcore fan beta testing.

    1) B-Side of first single is a "punk-rock" version of the album title. Created confusion in torrent search

    2) 22 second cuts are leaked via a vendor.

    3) Full tracks are "accidently" leaked by Austrialian Division.

    4) The final tracks might leak a day or so ahead of official release but the publicity and confusion will be monumental. At the same time, some of the more abstract and adventurous work will please some of the more hardcore fans.

    I'm hugely sceptical about this. However, if true - very clever.

    The tracks are getting radio play this week in UK though and have elsewhere already. Seems very unlikely.
  5. I agree with you, but who knows...
  6. Don't quite believe it myself. The album also seems consistent with reviews from the media also. Would be cool though to release something entirely different to what we have heard already. But then again, what we have heard so far is oh so good.


  7. Coming from a jaded cynic like you, that speaks volumes for me. It's whetting my appetite.


  8. I don't get how the quoted post and your one made sense.

    For the record though I was right, there were no radical changes to any of the Beach Clips from the album version.

    Like Mr I'm Always Right and others were so ardently suggesting ("they'll rerecord the vocals on the mixing desk at the last minute" etc etc)




  9. Dan you really think NLOTH, Magnificent and MoS can match the holy trinity?

    I mean Magnificent maybe. But NLOTH? it's too frivolous, the chorus goes nowhere. Maybe if there was a NLOTH 1.5 remix.

    And there is no way MoS is as good as WOWY. Come on. It's not even a proper U2 dark song, it's like U2 doing adult contemporary.

    Don't believe in this. U2.com is streaming the whole album for the subscribers and its the same.

    Opinions....Maybe Dan loves Angelina Jolie while you prefer Oprah Winfrey.
