October
by U24/5
(1 votes)October is the second studio album by Irish rock band U2.
It was released on 12 October 1981 by Island Records, and was produced by Steve Lillywhite.
The album was lyrically inspired by the memberships of Bono, the Edge, and Larry Mullen Jr.
in a Christian group called the "Shalom Fellowship", and consequently it contains spiritual and religious themes.
Their involvement with Shalom Fellowship led them to question the relationship between the Christian faith and the "rock and roll" lifestyle, and threatened to break up the band.
