"[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."
CMJ - 1/6/03, p.16
Included in CMJ's list of "Top 25 College Radio Albums of All Time"
Musician - 12/91

Jazziz - Dec.-Jan./92, p.94
Picked by critic John Dilberto as one of the 10 best albums of 1992.
New York Times (Publisher) - 1/1/92
"..Dense, self-serious and overly ambitious: all the things this band is rightfully famous for.."
Record Collector (magazine) - p.103
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..."
