One of the peaks of U2 (probably the highest along with the previous "The Unforgettable Fire"). From a lyrical perspective, Bono Vox is likely at his peak as an excellent lyricist, blending social, religious, and spiritual themes. The band traverses a wide range of genres, from folk to blues to country, without neglecting some experiments that evoke a certain paranoid New Wave (the gems are "Exit" and "Bullet the Blue Sky").
