1. Definitely not a fan of the sound on this one. The audience is too prominent and badly mixed in, and the wall of sound is horrific during most of the song. I'm just praying that we get to hear a properly mastered studio version soon or else this will go down the drain fast. For God's sake you can't even tell Edge's main guitar most of the time.
  2. The mix really is awful.

    I like The Blackout quite a bit more than this NPR reviewer, but a fair enough review. Well-written and clearly knowledgeable of U2's history and current dilemma.

  5. I really don't get why this is the mix they chose to go with for the video unless the song actually sounds like that? It can't. Can it?

    I also hate that they didn't make it available to download. I think that is really dumb.
  6. Still think it's a purposely bad mix.

    Yep stupid if you ask me...Edge if you are reading this (doesn't he go on the forums for a peak sonetimes ?) have a word mate
  8. It's just an appetiser

  9. Surely not on the night of a worldwide release and while getting ready for 19 concerts in 2 months
