The fourth studio album by the Irish rock band, released in 1984, marked a significant shift in their musical style. Working with producers Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois, the band delved into a more ambient and abstract sound, moving away from their previous hard-hitting rock sound. Titled after an art exhibit on the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, the album showcased the band’s most dramatic change in direction at the time. With a desire to experiment and evolve, the album stands out as a pivotal moment in the band’s discography.
