formed in <a href="/wiki/Dublin" title="Dublin">Dublin</a> in 1976. The group comprises <a href="/wiki/Bono" title="Bono">Bono</a> (lead vocals and rhythm guitar), <a href="/wiki/The_Edge" title="The Edge">the Edge</a> (lead guitar, keyboards, and backing vocals), <a href="/wiki/Adam_Clayton" title="Adam Clayton">Adam Clayton</a> (bass guitar), and <a href="/wiki/Larry_Mullen_Jr." title="Larry Mullen Jr.">Larry Mullen Jr.</a> (drums and percussion). Rooted in <a href="/wiki/Post-punk" title="Post-punk">post-punk</a>, U2's musical style has evolved throughout their career, yet has maintained an anthemic quality built on Bono's expressive vocals and the Edge's chiming, <a href="/wiki/Effects_unit" title="Effects unit">effects</a>-based guitar sounds. Bono's lyrics, often embellished with spiritual imagery, focus on personal and sociopolitical themes. The group's popular live performances have ranged across multiple elaborate tours over their career. The band was formed when the members were teenaged pupils of <a href="/wiki/Mount_Temple_Comprehensive_School" title="Mount Temple Comprehensive School">Mount Temple Comprehensive School</a> and had limited musical proficiency. Within four years, they signed with <a href="/wiki/Island_Records" title="Island Records">Island Records</a> and released their debut album, <a href="/wiki/Boy_(album)" title="Boy (album)">Boy</a> (1980). Works such as their first UK number-one album, <a href="/wiki/War_(U2_album)" title="War (U2 album)">War</a> (1983), and singles "<a href="/wiki/Sunday_Bloody_Sunday" title="Sunday Bloody Sunday">Sunday Bloody Sunday</a>" and "<a href="/wiki/Pride_(In_the_Name_of_Love)" title="Pride (In the Name of Love)">Pride (In the Name of Love)</a>" helped establish U2's reputation as a politically and socially conscious group. Their fourth album, <a href="/wiki/The_Unforgettable_Fire" title="The Unforgettable Fire">The Unforgettable Fire</a> (1984), was their first collaboration with producers <a href="/wiki/Brian_Eno" title="Brian Eno">Brian Eno</a> and <a href="/wiki/Daniel_Lanois" title="Daniel Lanois">Daniel Lanois</a>, whose influence resulted in a more abstract, <a href="/wiki/Ambient_music" title="Ambient music">ambient</a> sound for the band. By the mid-1980s, U2 had become renowned globally for their live act, highlighted by their performance at <a href="/wiki/Live_Aid" title="Live Aid">Live Aid</a> in 1985. Their fifth album, <a href="/wiki/The_Joshua_Tree" title="The Joshua Tree">The Joshua Tree</a> (1987), made them international stars and was their greatest critical and commercial success. One of the world's <a href="/wiki/List_of_best-selling_albums" title="List of best-selling albums">best-selling albums</a> with 25 million copies sold, it yielded the group's only number-one singles in the US: "<a href="/wiki/With_or_Without_You" title="With or Without You">With or Without You</a>" and "<a href="/wiki/I_Still_Haven%27t_Found_What_I%27m_Looking_For" title="I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For">I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For</a>". Facing creative stagnation and a backlash to their documentary and double album <a href="/wiki/Rattle_and_Hum" title="Rattle and Hum">Rattle and Hum</a> (1988), U2 reinvented themselves in the 1990s. Beginning with their acclaimed seventh album, <a href="/wiki/Achtung_Baby" title="Achtung Baby">Achtung Baby</a> (1991), and the multimedia spectacle of the <a href="/wiki/Zoo_TV_Tour" title="Zoo TV Tour">Zoo TV Tour</a>, the band pursued a new musical direction influenced by <a href="/wiki/Alternative_rock" title="Alternative rock">alternative</a>, <a href="/wiki/Industrial_music" title="Industrial music">industrial</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Electronic_dance_music" title="Electronic dance music">electronic dance music</a>, and they embraced a more ironic, flippant image. This experimentation continued on <a href="/wiki/Zooropa" title="Zooropa">Zooropa</a> (1993) and concluded after <a href="/wiki/Pop_(U2_album)" title="Pop (U2 album)">Pop</a> (1997) and the <a href="/wiki/PopMart_Tour" title="PopMart Tour">PopMart Tour</a>, which polarized audiences and critics. The group re-established a more conventional, mainstream sound on <a href="/wiki/All_That_You_Can%27t_Leave_Behind" title="All That You Can't Leave Behind">All That You Can't Leave Behind</a> (2000) and <a href="/wiki/How_to_Dismantle_an_Atomic_Bomb" title="How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb">How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb</a> (2004), which were critical and commercial successes. Sales of subsequent albums declined, but the group remained a popular live act. The <a href="/wiki/U2_360%C2%B0_Tour" title="U2 360° Tour">U2 360° Tour</a> of 2009–2011 held records for the <a href="/wiki/List_of_most-attended_concert_tours" title="List of most-attended concert tours">most-attended</a> and <a href="/wiki/List_of_highest-grossing_concert_tours" title="List of highest-grossing concert tours">highest-grossing concert tour</a> until 2019. <a href="/wiki/Songs_of_Innocence_(U2_album)" title="Songs of Innocence (U2 album)">Songs of Innocence</a> (2014), the first of two companion albums in the 2010s, was criticised for its pervasive release through the <a href="/wiki/ITunes_Store" title="ITunes Store">iTunes Store</a>. In 2023, U2 released <a href="/wiki/Songs_of_Surrender" title="Songs of Surrender">Songs of Surrender</a>, an album of re-recorded songs, and began the <a href="/wiki/U2:UV_Achtung_Baby_Live_at_Sphere" title="U2:UV Achtung Baby Live at Sphere">U2:UV Achtung Baby Live</a> concert residency to inaugurate <a href="/wiki/Sphere_(venue)" title="Sphere (venue)">Sphere</a> in the Las Vegas Valley. U2 have released 15 studio albums and are one of the world's <a href="/wiki/List_of_best-selling_music_artists" title="List of best-selling music artists">best-selling music artists</a>, having sold an estimated 150–170 million records worldwide.<a href="#cite_note-170sales-1">[1]</a> <a href="/wiki/List_of_awards_and_nominations_received_by_U2" title="List of awards and nominations received by U2">Their accolades</a> include 22 <a href="/wiki/Grammy_Award" class="mw-redirect" title="Grammy Award">Grammy Awards</a>, eight <a href="/wiki/Brit_Awards" title="Brit Awards">Brit Awards</a>, four <a href="/wiki/Ivor_Novello_Awards" title="Ivor Novello Awards">Ivor Novello Awards</a>, and two <a href="/wiki/Golden_Globe_Awards" title="Golden Globe Awards">Golden Globe Awards</a>.
