Reviews4 stars out of 5 - "This is grandiose music from grandiose men, sweatlessly confident in the execution of their duties.", "'Crumbs From Your Table' is the type of glorious gallop this band can write in its pub nap, but no one does it better." - Grade: B, Ranked #29 in Spin's "40 Best Albums of the Year" - "An '80s rock band making a great 11th album.", 4 stars out of 5 - "They continue to pioneer a new future for rock music....What is clear is that there's a new maturity to Bono's lyrics.", "It's their most unabashedly strident record since THE UNFORGETTABLE FIRE....Though the band rattle and strum with their old '80s vigour, the lines that stay with you speak of a creeping malaise.", Ranked #17 in Mojo's "The 50 Best Albums Of 2005" - "HTDAAB harmonised post-punk U2 and the modern, humanistic concerns of Bono Inc...", Included in Rolling Stone's Top 50 Records Of 2004 - "U2 soar to adult glory with a guitar-driven vigor that hearkens back to 1980's BOY...", Ranked #35 in Uncut's "Best New Albums of 2004" - "A brilliantly expansive album and their best since ACHTUNG BABY."
Additional InformationA rock record through and through, this 2004 release has as much unbridled energy as such early benchmarks as BOY or WAR.
It's a great item for U2 fans and collectors. This is the digipak format of their well-known 2004 album "How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb" and it contains both CD and DVD formats including the special bonus track for the UK region - Fast Cars. In the UK to promote the sales this CD/DVD came in a special numbered slipcase with the original stickers on it. Unfortunately, this particular copy does not have the stickers on it.
