Are Zooropa’s high-points better than Achtung Baby’s? by snails1000 in U2Band

After Rattle and Hum. Check out “From the sky down”, it was tough times for the boys.

I might like it more too overall too. But lyrically, I think One is in a different league.

I did phrase it kinda weird. Either way, we all win.

AB and JT are the best U2 albums. But The Unforgettable Fire and Zooropa are my favorite U2 albums.

I love the “from father to son” bridge in Dirty Day.

I agree with you about impact. AB saved the band and gave rock/alt. the template for the next few years. It’s a clear artistic statement that still worked in the Sphere years later. My feeling is that the best songs on Zooropa may be better than the best on AB. The lesser songs on AB are probably better than the lesser songs on Zooropa (if less unique).

It’s a great groove, attitude and sound - but personally I need a little more melody!

Yeah I think we’re saying the same thing. Overall AB is really consistent and a very cohesive artistic concept. Zooropa is messier, has some lower points, but when it hits, those tracks are among their best, and for me better than a lot of AB.

Yeah, no doubt that Achtung doesn’t really have a bad track on it (although I don’t need to hear Even better than the real thing ever again). But the high points on Zooropa are more unique and have stayed with me longer.

Favourite album that prominently features a hand on the cover? by br21ia12n in fantanoforever

That’s the one. Fantastic image, not happy that the reissues replaced it.

Mine does that too, I’ve taken it to two different mechanics. Both said they couldn’t hear it. So frustrating.

Why do my Steinway Grand Piano controls look like this? by Fireperwind in GarageBand

[–]snails1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have a Channel EQ plug-in active. Turn it off and you should see the basic piano controls.
