Album Details The First Single from the Group's 2004 Album "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb". This Song, as Well as the Whole of the Album, Has Been Described as Bringing Back their Early Sound in a Much More Forceful Way, "With Big Guitars and Soaring Vocals". This is No Doubt Due to the Return of Steve Lillywhite in the Producer's Chair (Who also Produced their First Three Albums). The Single also Includes a Cover of Kraftwerk's "Neon Lights'' and a Jacknife Lee Remix of "Vertigo". The Music was Recorded at the Band's Hanover Quay Studio in Dublin.

CD ReviewsNot To Be Dismantled Michael Kerner | Brooklyn, New York U.S.A. | 11/21/2004 (4 out of 5 stars) "It does come as a surprise when it really comes to the commerciality of U2 and their music. They have truly been known as one of the most dynamic and influential band ever from Europe, and their music still packs a punch. Their latest single, Vertigo is a very hard and upbeat Rock song that really is U2 at their best. The song is their first new one since Electrical Storm from their Best of 1990-2000 collection. The feeling of this is purely fast and hard, which is mostly remarkable since U2 used the song with Apple and their itunes commercials. Nevertheless, the song is really very good, and if it is this good, I can't wait to hear what How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb is like. Overall: B" Not Perfect, But A Nice Statement of Purpose T. Vasquez | Seattle, WA | 11/19/2004 (4 out of 5 stars) "As usual, U2 brings out the passion in people, for better or worse. I think that, like "The Fly" and like "Beautiful Day," this is a great declaration of intent. It's not the best song off HTDAAB (wait 'til "Love and Peace or Else" and "Miracle Drug" for that), but it's loud and ferocious. Bono's in great voice here, and the whole sound is very dynamic and uncompromising. You can nitpick the little touches, but just remember that the Beatles had some odd little squiggles and touches on their songs, too. I like the remix of "Vertigo," for the record. I'm sure I'll be hearing it in my local gym non-stop all winter." Really only worth purchasing for one song Samuel Clemens | Charlottesville, VA USA | 06/01/2005 (3 out of 5 stars) "This CD is of interest mainly because of the Kratwerk cover, Neon Lights. It's a nice atmoshperic song, consisting of a single verse repeated a few times. A good B-side, though, and it's not available on The Complete U2 box set. The first track, Vertigo, is the same as the album version. The Jacknife Lee 10" Version is a good track, but it's only a shortened version of the 12" version, which IS available on The Complete U2 box set from iTunes. Compare the running times. The 10" version runs over 4 minutes while the 12" version clocks in at 5:36. If you must have every song that U2 has ever done, then buy this. If you are searching for good U2 B-sides, buy this. Otherwise, it may not be worth all the money."
