when did U2 become shit?

[Chairman Meow]

They've always been shit.

Where's the poll?

 

[Orang Utan]

They are the most wretched toss imaginable

This is a trick question isn't it?

Fine, but I'm always weary of someone who dismisses all music from a band outright. It usually means they've accepted someone else's opinion, without checking things out for themself.

What an odd set of unconnected conclusions.

Or maybe they just think they're shit.

I also liked some of Zooropa but then lost interest, I can't even name any albums they did after that.

Possibly

I'm weary and wary of anyone who claims to like U2 or any other brand of christian rock.

It's only a matter of time before you just know they're going to whip out a tambourine

Before Live Aid

 

[Chorlton]

when school buddies paul and dave said 'hey, lets give ourselves wacky names and make pseudo-christian rock bollocks'

 

[Jambooboo]

Achtung Baby was the last great album they did - it all went downhill with the following Zoo TV tour and Zooropa.

Im not a huge U2 fan by any means but surely their antics in the last say, few years have allowed people a little more liberty and freedom to call them shit than they otherwise would.
I bought a tab book of their songs prior to 1990 about three years ago, now everytime I see it I grimace with pain at the rubbish they imposed on ordinary decent folk around MPH
