i am 19 and to be fair most of the music that is made now by bands try to sou. nd like u2 the beatles and so on. the point im makin is old isnt a bad thing. wen a band breaks the world record for selling the biggest tour ever in sales 700 milion dollors . try telling the millions of fans who paid money to see them that there arent good. if anything it proves age is bliss. what a stupid review.

ah how I wish the rumors of U2 splitting up were true… They are a washed up band deliriously thinking that they are producing the greatest music of their career. Every song is sounding more and more like the last, to the point where you can’t even distinguish the difference! Do us a favor and end this terrible torturous career. If there was not another u2 song released from this day onwards I would be a happy woman.

This is devastating news. I don’t read Hecklerspray for feelings of crushing disappointment, why would you want to upset your readership with this tragic announcement?

The fish are biting well today – U2 fans practically leaping into the net having misunderstood the entire concept of the site like post pubescent, male versions of the Twilight bunch. Makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside

>> “definitely back to U2’s roots this time.”

Having been stupid enough to pay money to this band in the ’70s (which I will recoup with profit when I sell my rare original U2 “4-play” singles) I can testify that U2 should never “go back” because they started out considerably more crap than they are now.

Bono sounded like a weedy teenager doing karaoke. Edge filled the gaps in the songs with more prolonged solo playing than he now does, but it sounded like randomly chosen notes rather than “music”. The producer of their 1st album had to releve the aural tedium with cheesy effects like breaking glass and glockenspiels. Only the drummer sounded like he knew what he was doing, and it speaks very ill of a band to say their most talented member is the drummer.

And what are these “roots”? U2 originally claimed allegiance to a musical movement called “punk”, which you young people have never heard of because it’s the only musical trend that was SO bad it never ever had a revival.

Man you are a jerk off. Since when is 49 so old. One day you will be 49, and I bet you won’t even be 1/100th as successful as Bono, Edge, or anyone in the U2 organization. You are just jealous and pissed off at the world and U2 help you express your insecurities. And if you want to make fun of getting older, then guess what, one day you may be so lucky to live to 49. So get over it, just review the music man, good or bad, it’s an opinion and it is respected…but no need to bash people especially for getting older..get a fuckin clue.

Such a thimble-dicked “review.” Thank Christ for the internet. Otherwise, little fucksticks like you would not have a voice! Keep screaming into the darkness…nobody cares.

Not sure I get the point of this piece – other than the author doesn’t like u2 so decided to have a rather infantile go at them. Job achieved if that was the purpose of it – infantile indeed.

Hey

Judging by your profile photos, I bet you aren’t really THAT far behind Bono’s 49, or Larry’s 47. any anyways the age thing is kinda lame. While there are some truly creative reviews out there ‘against’ the album in recent days, this is ridiculously lame and unfunny. Maybe satire, sarcasm, or wit just isn’t your thing?
