Well, I was just talking about U2, not other bands in general. I know there's other 3-piece bands that can make good music too, but I wasn't placing U2 above anyone. |

I'm not HUGE on this group, but I'd say I'm a big fan. Here are my top 5 favorite albums by them: 1. The Unforgettable Fire (1984) 2. Achtung Baby (1991) 3. War (1983) 4. Zooropa (1993) 5. Pop (1997) Those last 2 are among their most experimental albums. I like to think of Achtung Baby, Zooropa, and Pop as U2's "Berlin Trilogy" in a way. |

Now 100% more avant-garde than Ivan!

My list is similar, except I have Boy in place of Zooropa. |

i have never been able to like u2. i can't really explain why. their songs do nothing for me. i guess the best word i could think of to describe their music would be cold. |

I only have All That You Can't Leave Behind and How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb. I like them, but I can tell they have better. |

All That You Can't Leave Behind is actually a good album, just a bit disappointing coming after that whole experimental period. It kinda sounds like a retread of The Joshua Tree. Still, it has some pretty great tunes. Their last one was awful. |

U2's music is great, Bono's ego and voice kind of bring it down. In the mid-80's they were great though IMO (War and The Unforgettable Fire). Their three albums from the 90's are my favorite period of their music. Achtung Baby is excellent. |

Not a fan. But I used to like the first four tracks from their album All That You Can't Leave Behind, I in fact bought it when it was released but that was a long time ago... I think mainly they suck ass. |

As if he's never seen one b4.

U2 is ok, i like a few of their songs, havent listened to enough to give an in depth run down on them. Bono just gets on my nerves.....i dont know why. a part of me thinks he does the charity stuff mostly for publicity. |

Most of you who think U2 sucks probably haven't heard these three albums: Achtung Baby Zooropa Pop (there is pretty much no pop music on this album, this album is by far their most experimental) I suggest that any of you who are not fond of U2's hits, to check out any of the above three albums. Listen to Achtung Baby first though. Believe me, I used to think U2 sucked ass, but after I listened to those three albums, I liked them much better. Like I said I'm not a huge fan, I'm not even really a big fan either, kind of casual. I REALLY like the three experimental albums though... |
