U2 The Unforgettable Fire

Ale, you know I'm very passionate about U2. The review is good, but you could have done much better, especially (but this is just my opinion) avoiding the track by track approach. For goodness' sake, it's not bad in terms of content, but there are still a few things missing, even though the review itself is a bit lengthy. In particular, you can't fail to mention Eno's fundamental contribution to the creation of this album; an album that I consider quite good, but not excellent.

There are things I don't agree with: In The Unforgettable Fire, I don't see any reference to a chaotic world... I believe that the soundscapes evoked here by U2 are anything but confused; rather, they suggest images characterized by open, desolate spaces.

You can do better; anyway, it's a good start.

I have to say that you didn't understand much about this album.

I only have the latest CD "Out Louder" and I highly recommend it to everyone.

My dream (or nightmare?) is to see the Debaser homepage structured like this: under the section "DeRecnesioni: le Ultime," I want to see not one, not two, but all 26 reviews that can be published on the homepage, all for Death Magnetic.

Lars Ulrich is the shame of every respectable drummer. Dreadfully overrated; maybe it would have been better if he had stuck to playing tennis. That said, I’ll give the album a distracted listen and see what comes out of it. I'm not a metalhead, I generally don't like Metallica, but after all this online fuss, I can't help but be curious.

I was there, I was there, and I was there! Amazing concert, Bjork was incredible! In particular, the part that goes from Wanderlust/Hyperballad/Pluto was stunning. I’ve never jumped so much! Beautiful lights and a beautiful venue, take that, haters… (not here)!

Anyway, I want to emphasize one thing. In the review, it says: "Van Diemen's Land...a song as simple as it is beautiful." In other words, when U2 used to make great songs in just 5 minutes (another example is 40); now they can't produce more than a couple of half-decent songs even in 4 years. As they say: 5 minutes to create 40 and four years to make Vertigo. Something doesn't add up.

Insufficient review for a great album. Bono here at the top of his voice; but to fully appreciate the work, the CD should be listened to and the cassette (an excellent movie signed by Joanau) should be watched.

I liked it a lot. Of course, these are just the first listens, but the work seems well done and quite "new" for Coldplay. Many interesting ideas for what is really a good album, so, at first impression. Excellent work by Eno.
