U2’s first three albums--Boy, October, and War--receive star treatment with these re-mastered versions, just as their legendary The Joshua Tree record did last year. Every album includes a second disc of b-side remixes, live versions, and rare performances that die-hard fans of the Irish band will surely appreciate. The box also has room for a fourth album (we assume it’s for The Joshua Tree), but we can’t help to think that they’ll come out with a second Deluxe Edition Box Set next year, with even better albums from the band’s vast musical catalog.

Los tres primeros discos de U2--Boy, October, and War--reciben el tratamiento de lujo en versiones remasterizadas, justo como el año pasado sucedió con su legendario The Joshua Tree. Cada título incluye un segundo disco de lados-b, remixes, versiones en vivo y rarezas que sólo y exclusivamente los fanáticos de la banda irlandesa podrán apreciar. La caja tiene espacio para un cuarto álbum (suponemos que para poner The Joshua Tree), pero desafortunadamente no podemos dejar de pensar en que se trata en una simple estrategia de la disquera, y que el segundo Deluxe Edition Box Set saldrá el siguiente año, con mejores álbumes del grupo.

The last official album from U2 was 2004's "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb". Which gave listeners a taste of rock n' roll with drops of alternative/electric grooves. From my understanding and research U2 has a new album planned for November 2008. Therefore, I see this current box set as a way to satisfy fans until this new album is released.

As for U2's first three albums, they have very strong elements. From the post-punk rock vibe of "Boy", to the piano/rock vibes of "October" to the rebellion that is guffaw on "War". These three albums foreshadow the comings of a wonderful and strong band. Therefore I can understand why these three albums are being re-mastered and re-released.

I also feel in some ways that record and movie studio companies use exploitation towards fans when they release products. I will be honest it is possible that this might be the case with this box set. However, I don't think it is the total "brain child" of U2 to rip their fans off. It was the chance to give fans a real treat. Yet is this always the case? "Batman Begins" was first released on DVD as a 2 disc special edition. Now that "The Dark Knight" (sequel, not a bad flick) is out, there is an all new "super deluxe edition" of "Batman Begins" does this really merit another DVD release? This happens all the time with DVDs and CDs, the consumer just has to pick and choose their...battles, so to speak.

As for this "Boy/October/War" box set you get all three albums re-mastered with bonus tracks. I found this to be very enjoyable. I love the song "New Year's Day", so multiple versions of the song don't bother me. It is cool to hear some of this unreleased material, too bad it has been the vault for so long. For instance, the song "Angels Too Tied To The Ground" is amazing. I can see this becoming one of my top ten U2 songs of all time, no kidding.

I would have to say my personal favorite from these first three albums is "October". I don't know something about the mood of this record. The vibe being precarious, loud, haunting and angelic is the foundation of some timeless melodies.

As for the poster included, it is cool. The jury is still out if I will hang it up or not. The photo booklets for each album are awesome, they look like little hard cover books. There are lots of photos, lyrics and information about the band and what not.
