"From Achtung Baby On, Panoramic Ballads Sat Side by Side with Mini-Rebellions...", 5 Stars - Classic - "...U2's heaviest album to date. And best..." - One of Q Magazine's 50 best albums of 1991., Picked by Critic John Dilberto As One of the 10 Best Albums of 1992., Included in Rolling Stone's "Essential Recordings of the '90s.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "To call ACHTUNG BABY a pivotal release is an understatement....Carbed up on a diet of Bowie, Reed and (at a stretch) Talking Heads, Bono and chums opted for a more arty, corrosive battle plan...", "A sexy, sleek and cynical synthesis of playful falsettos, Euro-trash dance grooves, grinding guitar tones...and a hopeless/heartbroken worldview ripped from the chest of Leonard Cohen.", Included in Q Magazine's "90 Best Albums of the 1990s", "..refreshingly personal - deeper and denser than any of the band's previous releases..." - Rating: A, Ranked #9 in Q's "Best 50 Albums of Q's Lifetime", "...Achtung, Baby Is Dense, Tough and Endlessly Surprising...A Great Accomplishment...", Included in Cmj's List of "Top 25 College Radio Albums of All Time", Ranked #2 in Rolling Stone's '10 Best Reissues of 2011ft.- "One of Rock's Great Acts of Rebirth.", 4.5 Stars - Outstanding - "...the band is able to grow confidently and consistently on its own native strengths...few bands can marshal such sublime power...", "..Dense, Self-Serious and Overly Ambitious: All the Things this Band Is Rightfully Famous For..", Ranked #19 in Spin Magazine's "90 Greatest Albums of the '90s", "Essential to Understanding the Most Inscrutable Stadium-Filling Band in History." -- Grade: a, Ranked #62 in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" - "...The album has lots of uncertainty, irony and distortion. It also has one of the most beautiful songs U2 ever recorded: 'One'..."
