Snark:
Just downloaded U2's "With a Shout" from the album "October."  I forgot how good those dudes were when they were still young, angry, and hungry...there's a fucking killer guitar hook in there, and it actually sounds a little like Joy Division- very driving and atmospheric.  I need to get back into early U2.  The late '70's and early '80's were an awesome time for British rock.

Storm Rider:
I dunno if U2 ever qualified as 'angry'.

Houdinimachine:
LOL See how cool I am because I refuse to believe popular acts could have been awesome back in the day? I am so hip.

Joshua Tree and anything previous was fucking decent. Anyone who says otherwise is just trying to be cool.

Kai:
I don't think Storm said anything about awesome. I believe he mentioned "angry".


I never thought of U2 as angry ever either, so.



and War is a pretty boss album.

Storm Rider:
Did I make any statement of quality one way or another?

No, I did not. I just said I didn't think U2 counted as angry. Because I listen to a fucking lot of angry music and U2 is Barney in comparison with say, Exodus.
