U2: Achtung Baby/Zooropa reissues! This is exciting news!! "Achtung Baby" is U2's best work, IMHO.

Looks like Nirvana’s Nevermind won’t be the only big 20th anniversary reissue coming out this fall: U2 finally is set to release its long-expected reissue of 1991’s Achtung Baby later this year paired, somewhat more unexpectedly, with a re-released edition of the band’s 1993 companion album Zooropa.
According to fan site @U2, a report in the new issue of Rolling Stone — which is not yet online, and hasn’t yet arrived at Slicing Up Eyeballs world headquarters — says the two albums are “likely” be reissued separately this fall and combined in a deluxe box set featuring bonus audio and video material from the ZOO TV era.

Zooropa is incredibly underrated. So much better than their 2000s stuff, I'm quite curious about these reissues. | |

All the unreleased audio and video that will be included in the sets. Plus, if they don't compress and boost the volume past the point of ridiculous, remastered audio would also be nice.
Color me excited for these, and I'm not even a huge U2 fan. But this area has really fond memories for me as I saw them live three times during those tours. | |

Hmm, if Nevermind and Achtung Baby are getting the reissue treatment can we also expect the same for Blood Sugar Sex Magik? I'm not a massive Chili Peppers fan but that's a fantastic album. | |
