I tried to listen to this once again as a stand alone piece of music; no prejudices, no knowledge of the fuckery that was to come. It kinda worked with the energy of the songs. Adam Clayton's bass playing in particular is a highlight. 40 is a great album closer. Hindsight got the better of me. They're utterly ridiculous as a band.

The singles are okay in that anthemic-could-mean-anything kind of way, but you can see why they eventually got Eno involved to add some texture to their sound. There's only so much this band can achieve with the basic elements that they have at their disposal here, and it gets rather repetitive eventually.
