Re: U2 - Acoustic Achtung Babies
I'm not loving this... "Unknown Caller" ruined it for me, "Magnificent" is fairly good though.

I will say that it isn't really a rock orientated record. They weren't lying when they said it's more experimental. This album might make me a U2 fan.
I hate you for listening to it but
I love you for it too
Hearing an unbias person say it sounds more experimental makes me feel like this
I haven't heard any full albums from them so I don't have much to compare it to, but to me it sounds more experimental. I haven't listened to the full thing, but Get On Your Boots sounds like the closest thing to Vertigo as far as a rock orientation goes. Even though it seems experimental, it's got catchy melodies in it.
The title track sounds like older U2, that's the vibe I get. And White As Snow is the standout track for me right now.

From Rebell Yell at mygnr: "U.S. radio is going to be on "Magnificent" like a fat kid on a cupcake. And rightfully so."
From Black Sabbath at mygnr: "Absolutely. This album is fucking great."
I might have to download this right now.
I could see other songs being singles other than Magnificent as well. No Line on the Horizon seems like it would do alright, as well as Stand Up Comedy and I'll Go Crazy.
Idk, for my first U2 album experience it's damn good.

Holy Bono drops an F-bomb in "Crazy Tonight'
"It's not a hill it's a Mother fucking mountain!"
I can only remeber Bono using droping an F-Bomb once before on the song Wake Up Deadman from the Pop album. But then it's in this context "And a fucked up world it is too"
I didn't hear it though I just read the lyrics
Looks like the album leaked from New Zealand. That's weird.
Re: U2 - Acoustic Achtung Babies
o.k. so I had to stop the bleeding somehow and I requested an mp3 of the title and lead track No Line On the Horizon. I had to hear something I listend to it four times and I think it's a fucking cool song. What excites me is it's not even one of the ones being raved about by U2 fans. Unlike Boots where I can never decide if I like it or not(one moment I love it the next it bores me 
) I liked this song right off the bat. And after four listens I think it's really awesome. Not like anything we've heard off the last two albums. I
I am so excited to hear the rest of this but I think I can wait now. I've got Get On Your Boots and No Line on the Horizon and I think those can hold me off untill the 3rd. I hope so anyways. I have a really good feeling about this album.
