    Very good band imo..most will nearly automatically claim to 'hate' them because it's not trendy to like them. Listen to tracks like 'Acrobat' and 'Ultraviolet' at the end of Achtung baby. Just think too of all the iconic tracks they've recorded over the years (not so much recently). You can't really say they're a rubbish band.

    When I first heard them I took an instant disliking to Bono's voice. Then I found out how much of a pr*ck he was and how many other averagely boring songs he's written. Be yes I do it cause I secretly want to be 'trendy'. :rolleyes:

    Yes you can. Quite easily actually. Their melodies are repetitive, the lyrics are sh1te and as I already mentioned, Bono's voice is bollox. 'Elevation', 'Stuck In A Moment', 'The Sweetest Thing' and 'Discotheque' are songs they felt fit to release to the general public as examples of their work and they are absolute drivel.

    Bono's a c*ck, the rest are average at best musicians and their songs are sh*t, but hey they're Irish so let's be proud.

    They fall into two categories ,You either love em or hate em .I know loads who think they are the best thing to happen in music to people who detest them .

    Supporting them and being proud of them because they are irish reminds me of that old quote '' Patriotisim is the last refuge of the scoundrel '' :D
