Apr 13, 2023Behold: MTV Unplugged reimagined as a torture device. The folks over at Gitmo are getting creative! But U2 deserve an award of some kind. Not every band can turn their most exciting material into lifeless, mind-numbing gruel.

May 8, 2023Unfunny joke. U2 for the last four albums, proves that just when you think it can't get any worse, they release something even worse than the previous album. Might be is right time to retirement

Mar 22, 2023The biggest issue with Songs of Surrender is that U2 often fail to be malleable enough to truly stretch their wings and radically reshape these tracks. They too often, to their detriment, play it safe.

Mar 21, 2023U2 deliver smooth, polished performances that are handsome and, yes, intimate but not especially compelling. It's stylish background music that sounds a bit like it was designed to be heard in chain coffeehouses during the late 2000s.

Mar 21, 2023Nothing here is unforgettable or in danger of replacing its original. The arrangements are formulaic, regressing back to the stripped-down candlelit era of the original MTV’s Unplugged. At worst, Songs of Surrender is an overindulgence. At best, it’s a pleasant interlude.
