U2

On December 2, 2017, U2 took the stage on Saturday Night Live, a great showcase for their evolved sound. This performance came just after the release of their album "Songs of Experience," which dropped in December that same year. The album serves as a companion to the previous "Songs of Innocence," released in 2014, reflecting personal themes and social issues that resonate deeply. Interestingly, during this period, U2 was praised for their reinvigoration of the rock genre, showing they still had the ability to captivate audiences after more than three decades in the industry. Notably, their SNL appearance was part of a promotional effort, and the live setting was a chance to connect emotionally with fans. It’s not every day you see a band like U2, who’ve navigated the twists and turns of rock history, showcasing their growth while still harnessing that raw energy that made them legendary.
