U2 are an Irish rock band from Dublin, formed in 1976. They began their legacy by infusing their music with the political turmoil of the time.
After working with producer Steve Lillywhite on their first three albums, U2 sought a more sophisticated and experimental sound. They enlisted the help of Daniel Lanois and Brian Eno to produce "The Unforgettable Fire" and "The Joshua Tree," both of which achieved international success.
In the 90s, U2 reinvented themselves once again by incorporating electronic elements into their rock sound. With "Achtung Baby," they created a new musical direction. Bono and the band used their fame to address social issues on a global scale.

Back in print on vinyl. The ill will that initially greeted Rattle and Hum - the follow-up to the band's massively successful Joshua Tree album - was due in large part to the bloated and self-important feature film that accompanied it, which showed the band as being simultaneously naive and pretentious as it "discovered" America. But as the film mercifully slips from memory, the music has remained, from the furious swirl of Desire and a clutch of live hits to insightful musical nods to heroes such as Bob Dylan, John Lennon, and Billie Holiday. Songs like When Love Comes to Town, a supercharged blues duet with B.B. King, suggests the quartet knew more about America from listening to its music than Phil Joanou's unintentional mockumentary suggested.
