U2 return to roots with free release
U2 are back, and how! They caught the music world by surprise on Tuesday with the bold release of Songs of Innocence, free to half a billion people on Itunes.
That innovative move shouldn’t overshadow the quality of the album, U2’s best since 1991’s Achtung Baby. It’s a return to their roots and it’s more personal than anything they’ve done before.
Iris, Volcano and Song For Someone are immediate standouts. AB
