Rick Rubin Taken Off New U2 Album
By Mack Rawden: 2008-11-30 19:20:51
Everything Rick Rubin touches seems to turn gold. He produced Metallicas new record, which is easily the best thing theyve done in a decade. He was the mastermind behind Johnny Cashs late-career resurgence. And even though it happened twenty some years ago, he still deserves credit for resurrecting Aerosmiths career by partnering them with Run DMC. Unfortunately, U2 wasnt quite as on board with him as the rest of the world.
According to NME, the band has scrapped several tracks they worked on with Rubin earlier this year. Speaking about the song removals, The Edge said, We actually laid all that stuff to one said. Really out of deference for Rick and that set of songs we just said Okay, thats that. I wasnt in the recording sessions, and I havent heard the songs in question--but Im definitely on board with not redoing the songs with a different producer. When theres too many cooks, one of them always pees in the soup. After the departure of Rubin, the band called in famed Talking Heads producer Brian Eno. Thankfully, he knows what hes doing.
