Reinvention. Rebirth. A Restart for U2.
That was Achtung Baby, in its essence. Trading Americana pretension for their European roots
Inspired by David Bowie’s Berlin trilogy and the sonic sounds of Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin, Achtung Baby was vibrant and inventive, recorded to be more hard-hitting and live-sounding than U2’s previous work.
With a dense musical setting, dark tones, and an emotional capacity of broken hearts and loneliness. Bono & crew are laid bare in Achtung in ways they never have before.
Join Robin LaRose on Thursday November 18th @ 6 p.m. as he takes you back to 1991 with U2 ‘Achtung Baby’ on its 30th Anniversary! Only on Rock 101, Vancouver’s Greatest Hits!
