Originally posted by robotsandmonkeys:The Apple debacle has probably tainted SOI for good, but one thing they escaped from is any real truth to how it actually did. SOE is going to be their first traditional release since NLOTH and I think if it released with little to no fanfare they are going to have a ego freak-out on the level of POP.
For me personally this is a make or break album as a waning fan. SOI is my least favorite U2 album...if SOE is the same as SOI...I know i won't be seeing them this next tour. And from what I've heard from SOE so far I think it sounds worse then SOI. I downright loathe "Best Thing" which isn't a good sign...so I don't know about the world, but this is a make or break album for me as a fan.

Honestly. I don’t think it is fair at all. SOI is perhaps U2’s most personal album. I really loved that about it. If you can’t get excited by those songs why do you even care about that band? I mean to hear what it was that made them want to be in a band is amazing to me. And that album really captures an innocence and really has a theme. It is a great body of work.
