October

from Into The Heart of U2 Podcast · host Into The Heart of U2 Podcast

In this episode we talk about the birth of U2's difficult second album, October. The one they seem uncomfortable and a bit embarrassed to talk about even today. We examine the three things October is notorious for, the external and internal pressures that created such an unusual rock and roll album, Edge's crisis that almost ended the band, the critical reaction to October, how Island Records almost dropped the band during the tour, and where the band was moving forward.
