First thought: I like it, but I don't love it...

...so is this just a single released for the cause or is this the unofficial first single of the new album?

Oh, and what about North Star...I've only heard the tiny bit that was played in the Transformers movie, so if they wanted to get that down on a album that would be great too.

Bono also used the opportunity to announce that despite appearances and rumors to the contrary, “Invisible” is not the first official single from the new album.

“We have another song we’re excited about to kick off the album,” Bono explained. “This is just sort of a sneak preview — to remind people we exist,” adding that “it’s the first one we finished” and that the group will be working on the full-length “for a couple of months.”

Songs like most of the other stuff they did.

So not great....and surely not "classic"

Ok, U2 are a great band, but I'm not sure being the Vice-President of the Clash fan club and ripping off the guitarist from P.I.L. necessarily constitute Punk Rock roots.

Who said they were returning to their punk rock roots, the band or some magazine?

Didn't the guitarist from Echo & the Bunnymen say the same thing about Edge? I found that documentary with Edge, Jack White and Jimmy Page to be fascinating.

I could see how some people really like them...I don't know if you are giving them enough credit.

I was huge U2 fan. When they were the first band on the cover of Time magazine, I was thrilled. Talked about it with all my friends in Algebra the next day. Lol

Then they made Batman soundtracks and cared more about the video boards on their tour than the music. They lost me.

U2 from 1983-1991 (War, The Unforgettable Fire, The Joshua Tree, Rattle and Hum, Achtung Baby) is a run of greatness that few will touch. Even they can't.

I think this new album could be pretty good; it can't be worse than their last two albums. I guess they're kind of like The Simpsons at this point: to what extent do you let the bad years at the end ruin the years when they were on the top of their game and untouchable?

This...have had no interest since Achtung Baby...most likely will continue as such...cursory listen. That is all.
