Have not heard the whole album, but U2 is one of those very rare bands that some how manage to keep going from age to age, creating and writing great music.
One of my marks of music greatness is how contemporay or fresh does a piece of music or a song sound, 5, 10, 20 or 30 years after it written or recorded. Many of U2's greatest songs and some of their more obscure work, fall into this category for me. Same with the Beatles. I was listening to the Beatles Revolver album on the weekend and some of the key tracks on that classic album sound as fresh today as they did, almost 40 years ago( scary that it has been that long ago!)
