SOE is my favorite U2 album!
SOA is much more better
So quick !!! How many producers are there in SOA ? 100 ?
"Top class with some heart wrenching lyrics"
"Some real crackers that will set well with their earlier work"
"All I can say is wow if you're a U2 fan you're going to love this".
Why must the hype get to me every time?!
Best album ever! [emoji6]
remember when it'd been 5 years since a record and all we had was an Aslan cover?
Any more hints on what little tidbits we may get today RD?
Or are we having to wait til next week.
I mean Valencia just put a black box over part of there FB picture. So it MUST be imminent. Fuckers
I think The Best Thing video has been taken off YouTube. It was there yesterday can't find it now.
hey hey it's a black out....yeah yeah yeah yeah
edge scratches guitar strings
I thought we were supposed to get another hint from u2 today.. something single related.. but I dunno.. doesnt seem to be anything going on
A poster over on @U2 said this today...
Getting my hopes up, but Blackout reminds me of Electric Co., and Arcade Fire's Power Out.
Interesting. Obviously both great songs... But not really similar, except they both have a glockenspiel in them. LOL.
Either way, i'll take it as a positive. Also, can't really tell by the "getting my hopes up" part if the poster actually heard the song or heard someone else give this description.
Edge's Cat seems to know what's up.. so, probably a good source on the sound!
EDIT: though, in retrospect, citing songs with titles related to electricity/blackouts might just means s/he's hoping the songs is similar to those two, great songs
What I see as different this time (but perhaps I'm just running out of memory) is that we have a wide group of Radio DJs talking about the upcoming record in a very positive way. This may push the new single into heavy rotation, which didn't happen last time.
From all comments (Amsterdam fans, radio DJs and others) I foresee SOE to be a little like a raw 2nd half of SOI (from Raised by Wolves to Troubles and Crystal Ballroom SOI has 5-6 songs that could also fit the statements about SOE).
If that's the case I'll love the album. The 2nd half of SOI is one of my favourite records of all time.

Probably wise to not compete with Taylor Swift's just-released single for music news coverage.
Even if her song is terrible.
I had the same thoughts. everything is Taylor today. And wow, the song is really bad.
Been away for day or two what's the latest? And I mean serious no 2018 talk lol
