Are you kidding?!? Of course it's good! Granted, I haven't heard it (yet...but my birthday's coming up in 10 days so maybe the Birthday Fairy will bring it), but anything by U2 is phenomenal so it goes without saying that this album is good. Even if it were nothing but a recording of Bono reading the phone book, I'd still buy it.
But I know most of the songs on there, and they're awesome, so I'm excited!
