What do you think? It's kind of good, not great though.

Can't say much. I've heard this one song they used to play non-stop on MTV, I think it was "Vertigo" - didn't like it at all. And I also trust Maddox, who says the album sucks horribly. So there.

I never liked U2, dunno why.

U2 invariably sucks.

Somehow I doubt it could possibly be worse than their last album.

U2 are ludicrously overrated. Even their '80s stuff.

I probably wouldn't hate it as much if not for my local radio station's chronic case of band worship. Between U2 and Green Day's new (horrible) album they rarely play anything else.

I don't understand why you people bother to do the [url] thing.

It's neato. You should try it.

Shut up, Susan.

Contemporary, popular 'music' (noise, from an objective perspective) is not to my tastes at all. Yeehaw.

One has to wonder what *is* your taste, Blargh. If it's anything like your writing style, I'd say you're fond of Manic Street Preachers.

Subhuman · Post by **Subhuman** » Sat Jan 01, 2005 6:38 am

I'd say the Twilight Singers, Yo La Tengo, maybe Ocean Colour Scene.

I'd say wham! lol get it?

Subhuman · Post by **Subhuman** » Sat Jan 01, 2005 6:44 am

LOL no, because Blargh isn't gay.

The lamentations and screams of the suffering of course. Actually, I have no taste at all. Completely numb. I don't even listen to music, all I hear is discordant, cacophonic noise. Most unpleasant usually, though some appears to contain the potential of being vaguely enjoyable if one is in the appropriate mood.

*laughs*

They're frequently incoherent too ? I haven't heard, or simply can't remember hearing their music. I'll have to correct that.

I haven't heard their work(s) either, so be proud of any potential witty insults going WOOSH over my head, aye ? In time, however, things will be different.

No, I blame the booze.

Not last time I checked, at least. Logic indicates no significant change in that area. Huzzah.

I maintain the noise going by the name of U2 is more awful than many other brands.

Blargh is a poor and bitter individual, leave him alone

Just about everything they made hardly makes any sense, but The Holy Bible(what a fitting title), has got to be the worst. The lyrics sound intelligent, but you can't make heads or tails out of it. Still, they have a decent sound you can like.

It's perfect for you

Yo La Tengo and Ocean Colour Scene are two critically bulletproof, extremely pretentious indie bands. I figure whatever you listen to, it's probably pretentious. The Twilight Singers I just threw in for fun.

This is how I feel about punk rock.

the album itself is an improvement and kind of ..sort of like their older 80's stuff which i really liked. But the lyrics as wit hall of U2's stuff are pure shit and dont really mean anything to anyone but bono... though i may just have missed the point.

i voted its ok.
