THE ALBUM OF THE DAYU2...Achtung Baby (1991)
(Box Set, vinyl box set, Allmusic review)
U2's intention with Achtung Baby was to deliberately make an album that was different than 1987's The Joshua Tree. They succeded, with very good results. This record threw the band into the 90's with a heavier sound as the bass is very upfront throughout the songs. The different approach indeed was effective and now, unbelievably, the album is 20 years old. Definitely recommended
