Pros: Inventive guitar work, challenging and confounding lyrics, stellar mix of musical light and darkness.
Cons: Percussion is a little thin at times; the occasional weak lyric.
Bottom Line: U2 takes a bold step into the realm of electronically informed rock music, thereby influencing a generation. But how many of us were really paying attention?

Pros: Perfection.
Cons: I overdose on the word "emotion" in the following review.
Bottom Line: Yeah, I'm thinking this is the best thing I've written. Not that it's saying a lot, but I'm proud, y'know?

Pros: U2 successfully lightens up a bit, adding groove and wit to their work.
Cons: It took them damn near a decade to record another album as good.
Bottom Line: The key to an album's staying power is whether it sounds dated or not. U2's "Achtung Baby" sounds as fresh & relevant now as it did 16 1/2 years ago.

Pros: Amazing songs and lyrics.
Cons: Can't think of any!
Bottom Line: This disc is unbelieveable. It includes both uplifting, danceworthy songs along with the occasional tearjerker.
