AM I BUGGIN' YOU? I DON'T MEAN TO BUG YA... OKAY, EDGE, PLAY THE BLUES: The WaPo's Chris Climek ranks U2's studio albums from bottom to top in two parts, from 12 to 7 and 6 to 1. I can't accept Zooropa (no one really wanted U2 sounding "like Beck imitating Prince covering the Talking Heads") or Rattle and Hum being anywhere near the top half (the transcendent "All I Want Is You" does not outweigh the suck), and would replace them with War and All That You Can't Leave Behind (which I might rank as high as #3), but it's a smart, provocative list.
