Album Notes U.K. import contains the bonus cut "Fast Cars" as well as a bonus CD/DVD (PAL, Region Code 0) that features five videos--"Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own" (Studio Performance), "Crumbs From Your Table", "Vertigo" (Temple Bar Mix), "Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own" (Acoustic Couch Mix), and "Vertigo" (HQ Performance).Much in the manner of their previous album, ALL THAT YOU CAN'T LEAVE BEHIND, U2 largely strips down the stadium-sized approach of years past on the provocatively titled HOW TO DISMANTLE AN ATOMIC BOMB. Whether they were inspired by the garage-rock revival that took place in between the two records, or just felt like making some visceral rock & roll, this 2004 release has as much unbridled energy as such early U2 benchmarks as BOY or WAR. The album starts with a bang, courtesy of the charging, angular "Vertigo," whose driving bass line and shouted vocals announce the band's intentions in no uncertain terms.The bluesy "Love and Peace or Else," and the fuzz-guitar-fueled "All Because of You" follow suit in a similarly high-energy manner. That's not to say that this is a mere rockfest from start to finish, though. There are an equal number of reflective, mid-tempo tunes whose direct emotional impact recalls the more elegiac tracks on OCTOBER, giving the whole album a dynamic depth of field. Whether rocking like madmen or getting in touch with their inner selves, though, the band sounds totally committed throughout ATOMIC BOMB, which has always been the first requirement for a great U2 album.

Reviews Review created: 10/07/08 by: I bought this CD as soon as it was released, but as with a lot of CDs that are bought from the high street, it only comes in a single CD. The fact that this version comes with a bonus DVD interested me and along with the bargain of a price, I had to go for it. And I am so glad thst I did Review ID: 10000000007921433 Was this review helpful?
