I kind of see where you're coming from but a lot of it coming across as "Will Bon Jovi release an album that you like as much as I like this album". A quick search on reviews of the U2 album have gotten a lot of negative results and I get that music is subjective but if we're posting bad reviews of Bon Jovi albums, good ones exist too and ditto for U2.

If this makes the impact you're saying it will on millennials, great but how are we gauging this? You're using hyperbolic statements to lift up one band and put down another.

Pitchfork: 5.3
Consequence of Sound: C+
NME: 2 out of 5 stars

And those are just the first 3 that came up in a row. It sounds to me you really like this album and that's awesome but neither U2 or Bon Jovi will probably make much of a dent on the music industry again without it sounding forced or tired. I'm hoping this opens up a discussion and doesn't come across as "U2 sucks". I'm looking forward to checking the album out but the facts you're giving are entirely subjective.
