No Line On the Horizon by U2 (CD, Mar-2009, Interscope Records USA)

The seller did a great job in getting my purchase to me quickly. The quality was exactly as he described and arrived in excellent condition.

I love it, is the U@ album, I am a U2 fan and I had to get it, no questions asked, and also it is a piece of art.

CD was great but seller doesn't leave feedback. Dont buy from ths guy unless you dont care about your ratings...

EPIC, this is an amazing CD. Another great U2 album does not disappoint. It took me a couple of listens to actually get into the CD but besdies that it has some great stuff. I would recomend this to any human being on this earth and maybe even further out in space. Thats how much i like it. I find myself listening to the same song over and over just because they never get boring.

It really takes awhile for the fan to understand that this is not just another U2 release which should sound exactly like their previous albums. Ever since "Achtung Baby", each album is a different experience. Some were well succeeded ("All That You Can Leave Behind" and "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb") and other were disastrous ("Zooropa" for the most part and "Pop" on its entirety).

What can be told about "No Line On The Horizon" is that such an album represents a band which at this point has acquired enough maturity to neither sound as rebellious as they were in the beginning of their career nor foolish as they were in their attempts to dance music in mid 90s, period which was really a low point in their path.

This is a purely mature, adult rock release. It does not attempt to establish new arena rock anthems such as "I Will Follow", "New Year's Day" or "Sunday Bloody Sunday" or profound ballads like "With or Without You". Times like these don't come back. Accepting the album and the band for what it is, and not for what they were, is a good and wise thing to do. In general, the album is very good, except for two specific tracks I did not like personally: "Get On Your Boots" and "Cedars of Lebanon".

Thank God things go for a change sometimes.

There is no doubt! that you don't wanna get this cd. because if you know there music, then you wanna get this cd! =] I know, I will.

i bought used cd horizon, really owesome look like new one,n i said thank for seller for that product.

Love this CD -it fresh and new, but with the Bono we know and love.
The U2 commerical influenced me to buy it with "If I don't go Crazy!"
It made fall back in love with them again.. If your old Hippie like me
or new to U2 -- It has a little of everything--wild and jumping then slow , and depressing... Classic!!

le prix trés bas de ce CD m a fait remporter une bonne enchère,puisque moins de moitié moins que le prix en france!.Trés bon contact avec le vendeur et livraison plutot rapide pour un pbjet qui vient de chine!!!.Transaction idéale!!!merci.

Quite disappointing for a U2 disc. To get taste of band get older production discs which are excellent.

Very pleased thanks I enjoy it. Its a wonderful album I like 2 play, I compare it too Achtung Baby also by U2. Overall its a good album except for 1 track called White as Snow its track 9 Other then that track the album is supberb

U2 cannot do wrong. And with their latest release (No Line on the Horizon) U2 has done right again for their fan base. The lyrics in this album are mature enough for the hardcore fan and easy to digest for the casual music lover.
The first single reminds me of "The Fly' from Achtung baby - not bad, just sounds the same - Hard hitting rocker! 'Magnificent' is a sure hit meanwhile 'Moment of Surrender' treats you with 6 + minutes of one of the greatest U2 ballads you get to hear in a long time from the lads.
Al in all, 'Horizon' is a very decent effort from a band that's ready to stand on the mountain top of rock n' Roll immortality, whatever the cost and whatever the risk. You gotta own this one if you like adult-alternative Rock! A+

I am a big fan of U2 band and I think this album is great too. It is very contemporary album, it has very modern sound.

The CD is in good shape. The packaging didn't convince me that it was new, but it sounds perfect and I received it quickly.

As a huge fan of U2, I am going to buy every album that they release. In the past ten years I have not been disappointed. "All That You Can't Leave Behind" and "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb" are superb albums chock full of classic songs like "Beautiful Day," "Miracle Drug," and "Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own." U2's new release, "No Line On the Horizon," just isn't quite as good as the albums they've put out in recent years. While the album does have some great songs (such as "No Line on the Horizon," "Unknown Caller," and "I'll Go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight"), they seem to be fewer in number than on a typical U2 record. I'm not sure why the song "Get On Your Boots" was the album's first single, because to me it is the band's weakest song since "Pop" was released in 1997. This album surely will not diminish my love of U2's music, and I am only slightly disappointed in it because my standards for the band have always been so high. I would give the album a B grade because it still has about 4 or 5 songs that I will regularly listen to and that's really all you can expect. I'm already looking forward to the band's next album, which I hope will contain the 8 or 9 great songs that I expect from every U2 album I purchase. It's the band's own fault that my standards for them are so high.

I consider myself a huge U2 fan, so please be aware. "Magnificent" & "Unknown Caller" are great! The only two songs I listen to on the whole CD!!! The rest is filler - so do yourselves a favor; save your $. Go to I-Tunes & buy the 2 songs for $1.98. Trust me. If you don't---don't say I didn't tell you so!!! Respectfully Yours, Dennis Carlock

I LOVE this CD!! It is amazing. Every single song. I typically only listen to music when I'm driving, so I have actually deliberately taken the long route, or found an excuse to go somewhere, just so I can listen to it. I highly recommend it.

a new classic from the group, you will enjoy it a live, Five Stars *****

CD is ok, we were expect something special but they gave us average music cd. All in all I'm satisfied. :)

“No Line on the Horizon” is extremely difficult for me to evaluate. On the one hand, the sound is FANTASTIC; on the other, the band’s lyrics are a bit asinine. I almost wish that the entire album were just instrumental; I almost wish that, for once, Bono would just shut up and let the music do its work.

U2 has experimented in the past to varying degrees of success. “Pop” was ill received by fans, thought it had several standout tracks, while “Zooropa” was shunned by both listeners and critics. “Achtung Baby,” alone stands as U2’s best outside-the-mold venture and even featured several classic songs (read: “One,” “The Fly”) that have since become part of the band’s canon.

This is seemingly not the case with “No Line on the Horizon.” There are no tracks that are immediately in your face — not even the first single “Get on Your Boots.” Don’t get me wrong: many of the songs are very good. But none are SO GOOD that you’ll immediately say, “That’s going to become a classic.”

In all, I’m not sure how I feel about this album. I suspect I may come to like it more as time goes on. But right now the title of this review really sums up my feelings. “No Line on the Horizon” is difficult to quantify.

Thanks for reading. If you found this review helpful, please vote “yes” at the bottom of this entry. Happy listening!
