Let’s forget about the Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby for a minute. Let’s look at this album, a collection of songs in 2009 and ask “are they any good?” It’s filled with lush modern texture and wide-eyed wonder of U2’s earlier albums but with Bono’s voice never sounding better and The Edges guitar work at its finest. It’s tracks like Magnificent, Moment Of Surrender, Unknown Caller and Stand Up Comedy that will make you listen again and again.
