This soundtrack includes two new U2 songs and three more with U2 singer Bono and the so-called MDH Band, which stands for Million Dollar Hotel Band and features Daniel Lanois, Brian Eno, Jon Hassell, and Bill Frisell. With those names, one would expect more than the high-priced filler that leavens most of this disc.
Most songs are stabs at quiet, ambient moods, but end up being more amorphous than ambient.
One hopes that the movie, sparked by a story written by Bono, will have more life. You can browse and read comments by other U2 fans. A site devoted to information about U2's upcoming tour.
