No Line On the Horizon

Got U2's new CD from iTunes. I'll admit this was barely even on my radar, it's just been in the last few weeks with random news headlines about U2 all week on Letterman that I realized a new album was in the offing; still, you know, had to buy it. :)

I've been through the CD once, and I really like it. There are a few songs that rock, and one of those reminds me of old U2, like maybe October or War era. The rest are more akin to Zooropa and afterward. But there are a lot of very peacefully calm songs. So much harmony on this album, Edge and Adam are really belting it on a whole lot of songs on this one. Am excited to listen to it again; and in this single-song era when I buy complete albums only exceedingly rarely, wanting to listen to the entire album again is a good thing. :)
