Self indulgent hot pile of garbage.

Didn’t like it then , don’t like it now. Not even a sense of nostalgia from this. Eddie is just horrible.

Garbage mumble moans. This album should never have been made.

Thought it would be ok when I recognized the first song. Boy was I wrong.

Self indulgent hot pile of garbage.

I hope they had fun recording this because I didn’t have any fun listening to it.

Nothing special here.

I don’t know why this album was made let alone on this list. Lyrics are atrocious and the music isn’t anything special.

Yawn

Yawn

Didn’t like it then , don’t like it now. Not even a sense of nostalgia from this. Eddie is just horrible.

Each song was worse than the last.

At least it’s better than Tusk.

Southern fried shit.

Rats off to ya!

Like really bad musical theater.

Bad even by U2 standards.

Eh…

Take me to the shops at the Venetian in Vegas.

This is trash. Agree with all the other bad musical theater comments.

Decent songs but too many skits.

Probably would have been a 3 if it wasn’t so damn long.

Self indulgent trash

Was hoping for more but got less. Musically this would probably be 1 star but I’ll give it 2 since they kept it relatively short.

2 hours I’m not going to get back

These guys suck.

At least it was short

I don’t think this could get any more pretentious.

S-H-I-T is how I spell XTC in my dictionary.

Well… I guess you gotta start somewhere.

This was out there!

Don’t know why this was made and definitely don’t know why it’s on this list. Every other band from that era did it better.

Yep, it’s those songs from Boston.

No

Horrible
