Advantages: True music is back Disadvantages: None
I now consider myself a '''U2''' fan although before this album was announced I only listened to a handful of their songs, mostly to '''All That You Can't Leave Behind''' album. U2's fan base is so huge that you have the feeling that you're left-out if you start discovering only now their tremendous back catalog. I felt the same way but it all changed once they released this pure masterpiece. I suddenly feel that '''U2'''is my band also. The longest ... ...because they came back with some '''Magnificent''' songs (pun intended). The lyrics are just mind blowing as usual, Bono probably reached his high-point as a poet and songwriter. I have to admit that the album does need a few listens before you could organize your thoughts and write your feelings down. I did and this is how I feel about '''No Line On The Horizon''': ==No Line On The Horizon== The perfect opening track for an album like this. Starts ...

...album deliver the goods.
No Line On The HOrizon is on eof U2s best albums to date, it has stepped away form the style of Atomic Bomb and has gone more towards their roots. Bono sounds sensational as always and The Edge still chucks out some awesome guitar.
First lets go through each of the songs:
No Line On The Horizon - The First song yuo hear on the album and starts off with a great guitar riff accompanied by a wierd sort of ringing tune that ... ...loudly and you immediately welcome back U2. The the drums come in to really kick ass in this awesome tune. The chorus slows down the song and adds a gentle guitar riff silently behingd the lyrics. As always there is a vocal to get you going and although i can't explain it ion writing you'll certainly noptice it in concert, i kniow i did. 10/10
Magnificent - A very slow build up and slightly technoy tone to the start of the song. Then kicks in Edge ...

Well were to begin, i find that this album actually very good as i wasn't sure what to expect when U2 said what the album was going to be like. The songs on the album are very catchy and if you like the singles they have released from the album then you will definately like the album. Although the album is slighty different from other albums you can definately hear the U2ness coming through all of the songs. I have been a huge fan of U2 for a long ...

Review of No Line On The Horizon - U2
Advantages: None that I can see Disadvantages: Waste of money
Well I have to find 120 words to describe this release without rewriting what I said about the last album. To sum up I would say don't bother buying. Derivative U2 album by numbers, same rock out tune to launch the album, same slow down meaningful drivle in the middle and same running out of creative steam and the end. This is an album made for two reasons, firstly to fulfil thier contactual obligation and secondly to promote the inevitable tour ... ...for the superb Sptify this is it. I only wish I had listened to the album before buying. Straight back onto my seller account on Amazon. The world really didn't need this, or probably the last three U2 albums. Even if you are a fan, or maybe especially because you are a fan, don't buy this album ...
