The final album of U2's early period, before the group broadened its sonic palette and lyrical vision, War is a brilliantly conflicted album, sounding martial and majestic while its very purpose is to tear down false idols propped up by politics. Sunday Bloody Sunday and 40 take the subject of Northern Ireland's troubles head-on, while it's the subtext of New Year's Day, which is about a sundered love relationship symbolic of a greater division.
