'no line on the horizon' pre-review


Neil McCormick - very long-time U2 friend, writer of 'U2 by U2' and "I was Bono's Doppelganger' and rock writer for The Telegraph has penned a very good pre-review of the new U2 album due for release in 10 days (I'm counting)... here's an excerpt...


"...what a place for a band to be, in orbit around their own myth, making music that bounces off the inside of a listeners skull, charged with ideas and emotions, groovy enough to want to dance to, melodic enough to make you sing along, soulful enough to cherish, philosophical enough to inspire, and with so many killer tracks it might as well be a latterday greatest hits. It is, at the very least, an album to speak of in the same breath as their best and what other band of their longevity can boast of that?"

I can't wait!
