Yes I have the album. I tend to agree with everything that Luke has said. This is the best album in quite some time from U2 though you need to listen quite carefully to appreciate it. The first three tracks are as good as I've heard from this band in many years.

Meh! I've listened to it 5 times thru now...it's still stuck in "BLAH" land for me.

Are you playing it on the right speed? Maybe your cd player is faulty.

I know a lot of U2 fans who aren't keen - at least they have tried something a bit different - you'll probably like the next album...........

I just got around to listening to this. I'm digging it. It's not Joshua Tree or Achtung Baby, but I didn't expect it to be.

Morose. It's just very morose. That's the best way I can describe it. I don't enjoy listening to it. It makes me sad that I dont like it.

Well, I listened to it today in our truck with my husband, riding around doing errands. Though he kept turning the volume down & I kept turning it back up, I liked it. And I'm not just saying that because I like U2. I've only listened to it one time, and there are some songs that I favor over others, but in general I liked it. My husband has seen U2 in concert with me once & his opinion was that it was "OK", so it must be good for him to say that.

Maybe if I see them live again it'll grow on me.

As for "NLOTH", It is starting to grow on me. Been in my cd player since this past Saturday. Have to say my favorite song thus far is "Cedars of Lebanon" - Cool to see that they have finally decided to come back to Oklahoma!
