Biography

U2 became one of the most popular rock & roll bands of the '80s, equally known for their sweeping sound as for their grandiose statements about politics and religion. They were rock & roll crusaders during an era of synthesized pop and heavy metal. U2 were able to sustain their popularity in the '90s by reinventing themselves as a self-consciously ironic dance-inflected pop/rock act and confirmed their status as one of the most popular bands in rock history. There rarely was a band that believed so deeply in rock's potential for revolution, and there rarely was a band whose members didn't care if they appeared foolish in the process. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
