The next chapter takes you back to the beginning

It seems as if U2 with their mammoth project would be ready to caricature the modern consumer and information society. The "Achtung Baby", "Zooropa" and "Pop" - trilogy has so frightened in their megalomaniac consequence many fans.
With "all that you can not leave behind" a return to the simple writing and recording good songs was done. With "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb" this way will continue to trod. It has distanced itself more time by ironed sounds. Ambient- guru Brian Eno and Space- Dancer Flood were pushed into the background and instead turned the guitar very well. So it seems almost as if you would have returned to the roots. In reality, the Irish quartet's much more mature than in the blue-eyed naiv- start time. If you actually noticed that U2 never had a line-up changes?
The opener "Vertigo" gives the impression of a band that is still enthusiastically in the rehearsal room after twenty years. This relaxed enthusiasm is driven through the entire album, it's a real pleasure. While the rest of the CD rocks not as punk dive, but U2 had already previously coupled with "Desire" and "Numb" Non-typical. That Bono's faith no longer coyly encrypted or hidden, what I think is refreshing and anticonvulsant. Therefore, the wonderful finale "Yahweh" and my personal highlight. In the middle of the CD, there is unfortunately one or two minor hangover, but I can forgive loose in the mentioned strengths.
Conclusion: Way to go, friends!
