Rolling Stone's 27th greatest album of all time
Far from being a U2 fan, I don't mind admitting this album has some incredible songs on it. However, the tracklisting is all wrong, having (by far) the best 4 songs on one after the other at the start, it is then something of a slog of samey rock staples thereafter. And similarly to Behind Blue Eyes by the Who (I had only ever heard Limp Bizkit's cover), I had only heard Richard Cheese's cover of Bullet The Blue Sky and was pleasantly surprised with the original. For me, U2 went downhill rapidly after this, but this is a brilliant album.

"I love a lot of Bernard Hermann’s work, but his soundtrack to Taxi Driver is really extraordinary. I actually watched the movie for the first time very recently, during the past year, and I was struck by how brilliant the music was. “The way that it changes from being something that’s so threatening and dark to being very melodic and lovely always surprises me, which I guess represents the protagonist’s mind. The idea of ugliness and beauty – and how it can shift very quickly, going back and forth – is another thing that I wanted to explore on the new record. I found this one to be very inspiring."
