What genre is U2?

Since U2 formed in 1970-something, they have endured various changes in pop culture. Post-Punk, New Romantics, Grunge, Brit-Pop, Hair Metal, Indie and Hip Hop have all come, gone and repeated ad infinitum in their tenure yet U2 still stick around as the constant. They have sought to play with different genre’s and have worked with BB King, Green Day, Pearl Jam, Bob Geldof, Paul McCartney, Lou Reed, Willie Nelson, Brian Eno, Pavarotti, Howie B, Paul Oakenfold, Underworld, Roni Size, Francois K, Sinead O’Connor, Jay Z and Rihanna to name but a handful of collaborative partners.

Whatever you think of U2, their standing in the pantheon of rock is one that is hard to debate. It is easy to pick up theI hate U2’ flag. It’s certainly not cool to like U2.

Is rock and roll a platform for change?

Rock and Roll should be used a platform for change . U2 have done this. Bono has taken it upon himself to be the messiah on more than one occasion. Whether you love or (most likely) hate Bono, he uses his position to lobby politicians and people of power to try create a better world for people. People might say he is a hypocrite for spouting such platitudes but I fail to see how a person like Bono hasn’t given enough of his own earnings to help these causes. Amnesty International, (RED), One, Music Rising, Greenpeace, Free Burma, Mencap and Chernobyl Children’s Project are all organisations supported and helped by the band. Whatever your stance on the band and frontman, these are all worthwhile causes and the bands involvement should be applauded.
