New U2 album on iTunes now - and it's FREEEE!!

[ExmouthExile]

Songs of Innocence, and it's pretty good too, they kept that quiet well!

 

[Goldstone1976]

I'd keep it pretty quiet too if I were responsible for producing music as crap as U2's.

 

[ExmouthExile]

Oh, here we go

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

The single's great. And the album sounds like a cross between Ramones and Kraftwerk according to Bono. And it's produced by Danger Mouse. Defo being giving it a listen.

How meaningless a thing to say is THAT? Bono has clearly lost even more touch with reality, should such a thing be possible.

 

[Superphil]

Free you say? In that case, mm, nah, thanks.

 

[Worried Man Blues]

Thanks for that, it says it's in iCloud........where is that?

You go to your music app and it should already be in your library ready to download from cloud. Reading the feedback on facebook, it seems I'm the only person having problems downloading it, I've only heard the preview clips so far

Not that I want to defend Bono but why is such a description meaningless?

I'm downloading it now, just went to my cloud settings and deleted a few unwanted files, and that seemed to do the trick

Well I cannot find it in my music library so what am I doing wrong ?

 

[Hyperion]

It just says "Purchased" when I go into it with no option to download. Anyone know why that would be. I have checked and it's not in my library

 

[Brighton TID]

Cheers for the heads up Exmouth

 

[The Modfather]

Havent bought a U2 album since War, but will give it a few listens as its free.

C'mon, 'cross between Ramones and Kraftwerk'? Might as well have said its a cross between Chris de Burgh and Nirvana. Or Rolf Harris and Radiohead. i.e. no such cross.

Brilliant thanks. Favourite band ever and anyone who doesn't like them should be extinguished forthwith. Sorry [MENTION=27447]Goldstone1976[/MENTION] that's just the way it is.

That's no problem at all.

Aside: No accounting for taste *sigh*

 

[Juan Albion]

Same with me

Now just click on the "Free" button and it will download.

I had problems downloading it to begin with. I went in Settings and Cloud settings and deleted a few unwanted files, and then the album was there in my Music app, one click and it downloaded the whole album. Just go in your Music app and click on Artists or Albums, and you should see it there. Perhaps there's a delay and you have to wait a bit like I did?
