U2: "Achtung Baby"
Probably nothing I can say about this album that hasn't already been said, but damn it still sounds great. Picked it up a vinyl copy last night for a really decent price, and falling in love with it again. Every freaking song on this album is killer - no exceptions, no filler. Absolutely amazing songwriting, and the perfect production for the time and the material. It's dark, shadowed, exciting, electronic, guitar rock.. but the real strength is the feeling and meaning of each song. One of the all-time classic albums in rock history, no question. And although they have had many stellar moments, I have a feeling "Achtung Baby!" will end up being their greatest single achievement when all is said and done.
